Wondering if there were any improvement made to how the Tab Order can be controlled, within Storyline 2, for accessibility. We have had a number of issues with how Storyline 1 controls tab order and would prefer to be able to set the a custom tab order, as opposed to Storyline's default of Left to Right, Top to Bottom.
Nonetheless I have some problems with using it. Tab order is randomized, regardless to the order i set in the custom order...It is not working when i testing it inside the storyline, I haven't yet tested it outside the program.
Bug: And also when i want to add new item to the order, i can not scroll down/up among the options!
Thank you!
Attachment: I added the screen of the storyline content
From that screenshot, it's difficult to tell where or how you've set the tabbing order and what is occuring in terms of the behavior you're seeing. If as Kevin mentioned it's a web page you've embedded, Storyline cannot control how elements are tabbed within that page.

Thanks for popping in to share Kevin :)
No problem, I have been using a work around and now looking for a working example of controlling the tabbing order.
Do you know where the controls for tabbing order are within the interface?
Thanks,
Kevin
Hi Kevin
under the layout option on the Home tab

Thank you, it is very easy to use. Great to see this feature!
This is really great news. Thanks, Articulate, for responding to our feedback! :)
Great feedback! Thanks for sharing.
Hey, guys.
Complete documentation on this new feature is available here. Enjoy!
If this feature can add a next and previous button all developers can quickly check each and every page for accessibility requirements.
For example, I just confirmed my tabbing order and ALT Tags but needed to close the window, move to the next slide a reselect the tabbing order.

Is the screenshot of an embedded webpage?
If it is the tabbing order would be controlled within the HTML of the embedded webpage.

It looks like you may have also shared your .story file in this other thread, so we'll take a look there as well.
