How to login into different DE

Asked by Jacky Leggs

I noticed that gdm hides the extra options like visual assistance and Desktop environment choice. I was going to install elementary os on my friend's computer but she needs the magnifier enabled. Is there a way to activate the gdm controls?

Is what you're looking for the ability to switch DEs at GDM or the ability to toggle accessibility settings? Currently, I do not think either are possible in elementaryOS Jupiter. However, you should be able to regain functionality by switching GDM themes. Obviously not an ideal solution -- more of a workaround.
