Focus Order Question
I might be overthinking this, but when working with a slides Focus Order -- after opening the pop-up window, is the first item presented via a screen reader at the top or the bottom of this listed focus order?
In my example, what is the learner presented first - 'my title' or 'Sports car racing down a highway'?

Yes, fantastic news! Should be a huge time saver -- cannot wait to give it a try.

This is a great update! It will make editing for accessibility a lot easier.

I completely agree with what Judy and others have pointed out about layers needing their own focus order. I have a project where I'm unable to prevent the user from clicking on the base layer because I want them to be able to click around the whole interaction and open and close multiple layers freely. It would be nice to have the screen reader stop when the base layer's focus order has all been read, then start again when the user clicks on each layer, which has it's own focus order to read through.

I'm struggling with this feature as it seems very much neglected. I am dreading spending weeks manually adjusting FO for all my main courses. We need to rearrange our focus order and prioritize accessibility, not AI.

Isabelle, I do agree. I know now that we can drag the focus order items around, but I still don't get why storyline keeps putting the layers at the top. At least put the Base layer items at top and we can move the layers up and under the buttons that activate them. Been many years....I to dread when I have many buttons and many layers...
