I'd like to know if we can toggle through any shapes on the screen in general and if there are any rules on how to use the Focus Order for shapes and text.
You can use the tab key to navigate through the interactive elements in your slide, such as buttons. It would be best to activate the screen reader to hear it read the shapes and textboxes. Please see below for screen reader support in Storyline 360:

That should not be a problem. Does this help? https://community.articulate.com/series/articulate-storyline-360/articles/storyline-360-customizing-the-focus-order-of-slide-objects
Thanks for your reply, Ron. I'd read that article but didn't find out why it didn't work!
I've attached a file as a sample. Just some random shapes. The tab button works on some of them but doesn't on others!
Hi Sarah,
I'm happy to chime in! With shapes and textboxes, you can use your screen reader navigation keys (e.g., Down and Up arrows) to move through them and listen to each item along the way.

I have prepared a screen recording for you with the NVDA screen reader activated in Windows.
Let me know if that helps!
Wow, thank you, Eric! I did not expect this level of support!
That was the most helpful!
So the key is interactivity! That explains a lot!
Thanks again, Eric.
