Custom Blocks Accessibility/Screen Reader testing

Hi all, I’m having an issue with Tab-based keyboard navigation not working, and I’m looking for a fix or workaround for accessibility/screen reader testing.

I have custom blocks throughout, but when I tab through them, it goes straight to the next interactive button, like the Continue button divider.

What’s odd is that later in the lesson, tabbing does detect a paragraph field within the custom block.

My current block setup is Canvas > Shape > Text and Icon Image. I tried adjusting the focus order, but that didn’t help.

To reproduce it: add a introduction template custom block, then create a blank canvas > add a shape > add a text box inside the shape then add a Continue divider, and open preview mode. When tabbing, it will detect the Introduction heading, then skips the custom block and goes directly to the continue button.

I found a similar thread that matches my situation: https://community.articulate.com/discussions/discuss/custom-blocks-accessibility/1238624


Hope to hear from you all soon :)
