Hi David,
This is great! I had one quick question as it relates to the player tabs. Is there a type-o with regard to the Menu, Resources, etc. tabs? At the top of the page, it shows the tabs being changed with the Base > Link Text, but when I change the Base > Link Text, the tabs (Resources/Menu) text does not change. I end up having to change the Tab > Normal Text. Also, in a future iteration, could Tab > Hover be included? With color contrast being a big topic with 508/WCAG, this would be a great resource.

Tab > Normal Text
Tab > Hover
Tab > Selected Text
Tab > Shadow
Base > Link Text controls topbar tabs (and the title). I can definitely see how a hover color for topbar tabs would be helpful. I'll pass that on to our product team!
If you're using Storyline 360, the modern player style has a hover state for both sidebar and topbar tabs. You might try switching to the modern player to see if it'll work for your course: https://community.articulate.com/series/articulate-storyline-360/articles/storyline-360-user-guide-how-to-choose-a-player-style
