Focus Appears offscreen
Hi, I am working on 508 compliance for my training and have gotten all the focus orders correct, along with Alt text, but when using the screen reader the actual focus (the box appearing around the item) shows at the top left of the screen and not actually surrounding the text/image. How can I get the focus to actually match the items on the screen?
Help!

I see this behavior sometimes as well. Is your image in a group, by chance?

Its on pretty much every page of the training, some with images some with just text.
