Focus order layers
The focus order menu will show you all of the items available on the slide, but the screen reader will only read what is on the slide at a given moment.
You'll want to think of it in an outline view.
- Base Title
- Base Item
- Base Button to Layer A
- Layer A Title
- Layer A Item
- Base Button to Layer B
- Layer B Title
- Layber B Item
- Etc...
But if you have your layers set up to "hide other layers", and you are on Layer B, the read order will skip all of the Layer A items. In my outline example, you would jump from #3 to #4 to #4.Bullets.
Your screen reader will also find and read the closed captions if those are on screen when you screen-read-navigate your slide. You'll notice that it will only read the caption on screen at that time, and if you navigate off the CC and back on, it will read "current" text.
You'll want to be very careful about text that ends before the timeline ends, as the screen reader won't find these once they disappear. If you animate them off screen but they still "show to the end", the screen reader will find them even if they aren't on screen. but if their timeline ends, they will get missed if the user is poking around the slide after the timeline ends.
