To accomodate users with visual impairment, make it possible to control the thickness of the highlight border.

Spotfire 5.5 Weekly 1

(off) *Current implementation:*
The black border that appears around highlighted objects is very thin, and for users suffering glaucoma or some other visual impairment it is hard to see. See attached screenshot for a glaucoma simulated view.

(on) *Suggestion:*
Add an option to change the thickness of the highlight, making it easy to see for visually impaired users. See screen shot for a simulated view of a mock-up of how it could look.

Note:
In order to simulate visual impairment I used the Cambridge Vision and Hearing Impairment Simulator which can be found here: http://www.inclusivedesigntoolkit.com/betterdesign2/simsoftware/simsoftware.html
