This could potentially give the functionality to interact with HTML 5 eLearning content, for example one possible interaction from the above link would be:
Click a button "Click" followed by all or part of the button name.
If there are multiple matches, Dragon displays a number next to each one. Say the number of the button you want to click. A red arrow points to your choice and then Dragon clicks it.
Do you know if Articulate Storyline content can work with this software? Are there any steps we should take when publishing content that would ensure compatibility?
Storyline 360 HTML5 and Flash output supports Section 508 accessibility guidelines, including screen reader support, full keyboard navigation, visible focus indicators, and more.
I've used Dragon previously, and I think of it as a dictation tool, I've not heard of users using it for their accessibility.
I appreciate you sharing the details of how your client is using it, and I'm going to share these details with our team via a feature request on your behalf.
As well as dictating text, Dragon can be used to speak commands to the computer. This makes it possible to operate the computer entirely with voice. In this way, it is also possible to interact with a web site, for example by saying 'click search' to click a link called 'search'.
It is this kind of voice control that our clients need to be able to use to interact with Storyline content. Is this possible?
The Nuance Dragon website has a downloadable cheat sheet of navigation commands.
it is worth downloading the cheat sheet for your Dragon version, to view the available commands, giving you the chance to see if they work with your storyline build.
Thanks for chiming in to share, Justine. Hopefully this helps someone that runs across this conversation in the future and is considering their options :)

It sounds like this is an additional tool to control the keyboard, so I'd certainly try it out.
