Storyline 360 and JAWS Reader

Mar 07, 2022

Hi everyone,

I'd really appreciate if you could give me some tips on how to make JAWS Reader work on my Storyline project.

I'm currently in the process of doing the JAWS testing and it doesn't recognise the text on the slide. It recognises the photos and the buttons and read their names but even this is quite inconsistent.

I've already put in Alt Tags and sorted out the Focus Order for everything that needs to be read. I'm not sure what I'm missing here :/

Hi Kayla! When you have text on a slide, the way to get to it using a screen reader is using the arrow key, as opposed to the Tab key. The Tab is just for the interactive objects, so that was my first instinct about what might be going wrong. But if you share your course here I'd be happy to take a closer look!
