I have created a course that includes some quiz questions that require a multiple response answer (i.e. "Select all that apply."). Unfortunately when using keyboard navigation for mobility restricted users, none of the answers can be selected. I can use the tab key to highlight each of the answers, but when I press Enter, the response option is not selected. On multiple choice questions, I can tab to each choice, and click Enter, and the answer is selected. Can anyone help me to correct this issue? I am using Storyline 3.
You'll need to use the SPACE bar to select answers. Have you tried moving through the answer choices with the arrow keys and then press the SPACE bar to select the answer? Then you can tab to the Submit button.
Thanks so much for your reply! That worked perfectly. I never realized that the spacebar was the key to select each of the responses. I've tested with using both the Tab and arrow keys to navigate to each answer, and both methods work equally as well.
Can I report that I have had exactly the same issue, and until reading this just now had no idea about the Space bar!
Can I suggest that Articulate add both options (multiple choice and multiple select) onto the Shift+? list as standard as soon as possible to help keyboard users out? I'm having to add a lightbox slide into every course I make at the moment with the inbuilt options NOT currently listed.

Hi Martin!

Let me know if that helps!
