Default Settings for Alt Text
I had to dig deep, but I found an article that says "By default, screen readers announce each object on the slide according to its name in the timeline panel."
Is this true? Do I have to manually ...
Hi Emily,
Great questions! I understand you'd like some more information on the default settings of alt text. I'd be happy to get that for you!
The best way to hide items from being read by a screen reader is to delete them from the Focus Order window. You can remove each item individually or you can click the first item in the list, hold your shift key down, then click the last item in the list to select the whole list. Then click the remove button to remove the entire list of items.
Here's an article with more on alt text including using the Focus Order window.
I hope this clarifies things!
