Accessibility of Scrollbars

When I select the accessible text option and apply text spacing criteria per WCAG requirements, the scrollbars that appear are not keyboard accessible.  Is this a known bug or is there a workaround?...

    Hello everyone,

    Happy to share that we've just released a new update for Storyline 360!

    In Build 3.106.35838.0 we’ve included essential fixes and new features. One of the bugs we’ve fixed is:

    • Textboxes displayed scrollbars that weren't keyboard accessible when a text spacing browser extension was enabled in Google Chrome.

     

    Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer to take advantage of this update, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You’ll find our step-by-step instructions here.

    Please let me know if you need additional help.

There are a few of us waiting for the answer to that, Jessi. It's preventing full WCAG 2.1 compliance.

Hi Mike!

Thanks for reaching out!

I noticed that you've previously connected with my teammate Cleober, through a support case. Our team is still working on a fix for the Storyline bug:

  • When the Text Spacing Editor browser extension for Google Chrome is enabled to meet WCAG 2.1 requirements, the textboxes display scrollbars that are not keyboard accessible

I've linked this discussion to the bug report and will share updates as soon as a fix is in place. Thank you for your patience. I'm sorry if this has been slowing you down!
