Hello - we are testing out our template with 508 complaint experts/accessibility and I see that story line output provides "full keyboard support". What exactly does this mean?
You can read more about the 508 compliance here, where you'll see that our keyboard support allows for the user to execute most Storyline functions using a keyboard. Exceptions include drag-and-drop and hotspot interactions.If you include drag-and-drop or hotspot interactions, you'll want to provide an alternate, keyboard-controlled interaction.
Thanks for the reply. I guess I am looking for direction on how to execute. For instance, I would assume space bar is pause. But this is not the cause. What is the method to pause the player?
If you'd like to pause the player, you'd need to include the "Seekbar" option within the player set up.The seekbar will automatically include a play/pause button and a replay button. Then in terms of accessibility, the user would need to tab to that element of the player and then the "enter" key to select it.
You can also set up triggers on the slide it self to be controlled by pressing a particular key.
