Build an Accessible Drag and Drop Interaction in Storyline
If you've ever needed to build an accessible course in Storyline, you may know that the built in drag and drop interactions are not accessible (see the VPAT).

Dominic - just noticed a couple other things in your file:
1. You built these triggers on top of the built-in drag and drop. Unfortunately, that won't work for a keyboard accessible option, because the way the built-in drag and drop is created, a keyboard user cannot select the drag items. Go to the Insert tab and select remove freeform to change this.
2. If you want your user to try again, change the try again button on that layer to "jump to slide" and set it to the same slide. Make sure your slide settings are 'reset to initial state.' This will reset the interaction on the base layer when the user clicks the try again button.
3. When using the keyboard interaction (after completing step #1 above), your drag items move to underneath the drop targets. Make sure your drag items are at the top of the timeline stack so they move to on top of the drop targets instead of underneath.
These should all be quick + easy fixes, but let me know if you want more detailed information.
