Heading Tags/Screen Reader Accessibility
Hi
I would be interested in hearing if the original request was resolved and how? I have two queries around this:
1. I am creating accessible content and have three text boxes with the fonts as Heading 2 but jaws does not read this out as a heading. (I have updated my fonts).
2. How do I signpost the user back to the heading to read the layer content sitting behind?
Thanks.
Dorothy
Hi Dorothy,
Sorry to hear that you ran into this snag.
I can confirm that on my end, using JAWS 2021 allowed me to hear the narrations for the headings. This is the text that was narrated back to me by JAWS:
Heading level <header number> <actual text>
And here's a link to the published output that I used for testing:
https://360.articulate.com/review/content/d74d7745-595e-4514-a400-359b51bd691b/review
I've attached the sample file that I used so you can check how the text boxes were added. Would you mind accessing my link with JAWS running and letting me know if you hear the same narration? Please use the up and down narrow keys for the text.
As for the signpost, you can check out this article on how to design accessible courses in Storyline 360:
