Accessibility and Usability Questions

Questions
#1 - Using the scroll-text box, how can a user scroll down using the keyboard? While I can set the screen reader to read the text using Alt-Text tabs I can't figure out how to scroll-down using the keyboard.
#2- Are text-entry boxes supported for accessibility? If a user types in information and then I use a variable to reference it on another slide the screen reader references this as "Input X" and not the text that is showing on-screen.
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.

While in Preview mode yes the scroll bar does work. However, after publishing when I tab over the scroll box I am unable to scroll down using the arrow or other multiple keyboard shortcuts I have tried.
Hi Magen,
The scrolling bar and keyboard accessibility is something that we reported to our QA Team, and in this thread another user shared that it was working normally for him after Update 5 of Storyline 2. Do you know which update that you're using? I do see that our QA team is still working on this issue, but in the meantime you may want to investigate the steps shared in that thread.
Thanks Matthew for chiming in and sharing those steps as well.
