Usability and accessibility was again a main focus of development in the last 
two months:

* Generating a new OpenPGP certificate is now possible on a Full HD display with 400 % magnification. ([T5969](https://dev.gnupg.org/T5969))<br>
![Certificate Creation - Step 1](2022-0506-Certificate Creation - Step 1.png)
![Certificate Creation - Step 2](2022-0506-Certificate Creation - Step 2.png)
![Certificate Creation - Step 3](2022-0506-Certificate Creation - Step 3.png)
* Generating a new OpenPGP certificate has been made more accessible by replacing the QWizard-based dialog with a few separate dialogs. ([T5832](https://dev.gnupg.org/T5832))
* The tool bar in the main window is now accessible with the keyboard. ([T6026](https://dev.gnupg.org/T6026))
* Links embedded in text labels are now as accessible as in web browsers, i.e. the links are presented to accessibility tools as objects with the Link role instead of as selected text. ([T6034](https://dev.gnupg.org/T6034))
* Labels that receive the keyboard focus are now marked with a focus frame. ([T6036](https://dev.gnupg.org/T6036))
* The accessibility of the Certificate Details dialog has been improved. ([T5843](https://dev.gnupg.org/T5843))

Moreover, new features were added:

* The Certificate Details dialog now allows refreshing an individual certificate from the configured keyserver and via Web Key Directory. ([T5903](https://dev.gnupg.org/T5903))<br>

* Administrators can now specify the minimum and maximum validity of newly generated keys. ([T5864](https://dev.gnupg.org/T5864))

And a few smaller things were added or fixed:

* A few operations that are not possible for keys stored on smart cards, e.g. creating a backup of the secret key or changing the passphrase used to protect the secret key, are now disabled if a smart card key is selected to avoid weird error messages.
