Why does keyboard focus look different from mouse hover state

Jul 14, 2022

I'm confused why the focus state looks different when I use the keyboard to tab to a slide element than when I use my mouse to hover the cursor over it.

And, how can I make them look the same?

Here's a sample slide that I posted in Review.

Hey Brian! Keyboard navigation focus doesn't have an equivalent to a hover state with a mouse. So your keyboard indicator that you see is using Storyline 360's two-color focus indicator, and those colors will be universal throughout the navigation of the Storyline file, instead of being specific to that individual button or object that you're navigating to.
