However, you may need to manually re-configure the surrounding flow elements. Also, deleting a sequence flow from a business process removes any implementation details you configured for that sequence flow.	Delete key

Visual Builder: Using Component-Level Accessibility Features

The Visual Builder Components palette in Oracle Integration uses Oracle JavaScript Extension Toolkit (JET) components that are designed to comply with accessibility requirements.

For more information, see Accessibility Features of Oracle JET Components in Developing Oracle JET Apps Using MVVM Architecture.

Further, if your application uses Redwood components and page templates (which can be added from your environment’s Component Exchange), many accessibility requirements are handled for you, as follows:

Focus order and keyboard interactivity
- Pages have defined, accessible tab order
- Focus location has a visual indication
- All functionality is available using keyboard only
Images and links
- All non-decorative images have alternative text or an API provided
- Link text is defined
Color contrast
- Text, icons, and backgrounds have accessible contrast ratio of 4.5:1 for text and 3:1 for other elements
Structure
- Heading levels follow the appropriate hierarchy ensuring no duplicate H1 headers
Reflow
- Components and pages require only one direction of scrolling while at 400% zoom

Visual Builder: Using the Redwood Theme for Accessibility

Because Visual Builder applications in Oracle Integration are JET applications, they can use JET’s Redwood theme, which is designed to provide a luminosity contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1. All visual apps created using Visual Builder 21.07 or later by default use the Redwood theme.

To check if your visual app uses the Redwood theme:

Locate your app, then open the app-level Settings editor.
Check if the Theme field is set to Redwood or Redwood Stable.

If you’re not using a Redwood theme, it is recommended that you transition your app to use the Redwood theme. After you set the Redwood theme as the new default and run your app, the look and feel of your app will change considerably. You'll need to make manual updates to your app for new fonts, sizes, and patterns to adjust to the Redwood theme.
