Changing the colour of the closed captions and its background ?
Hello Everyone!
I'm happy to share that we have released Storyline 360 version 86 (Build 3.86.32028.0).
Included in this release is a new feature where you can customize the foreground and background colors of closed captions to complement your course design and maintain contrast accessibility.
All you need to do is update Storyline 360 in your Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer. You'll find our step-by-step instructions here.
Please let us know if you have any questions by reaching out to our Support Engineers directly.
Have a great day!
In my experience with accessibility, CC's should always be white on black. This is for commonality with 99.9% of the CC that already exists and is in use around the world. It also adds very distinct contrast for those who might have both vision and hearing issues. The white/black combo is the best color combo for viewing even in bright sun. The option for sizing could be looked at, and is one aspect that is in use in several areas (newer TVs for example.) But playing around with the color to match a theme, isn't something the end user who NEEDS to use the CC option would be happy with.
