Hi,

I'm on a quest for Linux tools to modify the GUI to meet the needs of my visually-impaired wife.

While working in Widows, I've been able to completely overhaul her Outlook.live GUI in the browser. I've done this with the Witchcraft css/js code injector - which gives very fine-grained control over the css, and lets me use javaScript to move elements around the DOM.

More recently, I started creating small Electron apps to give her very basic access to selected folders, using HUGE font-sizes, and visually-decluttered displays. (By "very basic" I mean just the ability to view and launch the files with their default apps - no context menus or anything like that.)

Anyway, once I started thinking about what might be involved in adding context menu functionality and such to my little Electron apps, it struck me that I might be better off in Linux.

And here I am!

THE BIG ISSUES

Colours: I looking for tools that will let me modify colours for individual css elements/classes, like window title and buttons, the start menu, tooltips, etc. (e.g. a white, rather than grey, background in the left pane of Zorin's start menu would work much better for my wife.)

Font-sizes: I'd like to be able to set font-sizes for individual classes of elements, like the start menu, task-bar, buttons, file manager, etc -- and do this without having to use any global scaling.

THE BIG QUESTIONS

I just love some of the features listed for Zorin, especially in the Pro version. Truly awesome. At the same time, I'm wondering...

Is Zorin a good distro to pursue this accessibility quest?

If not, could anybody suggest a distro that would be better for me (even if it doesn't have all these great Zorin features)?

Thanks much for reading all this! ~ Jeff.
