JAWs Reader is not reading ALT Text
I am
testing the accessibility features on a storyline file using JAWs 14.0 demo
version. I am using IE 10 to open the published HTML file. The JAWs reader is
not reading my ALT text for my images. ...

Hi Lauren,
We are using JAWS 2019. For a button with the built-in states, we put Alt Text on the built-in VISITED state, the text simply says 'you have already visited this section.' We then trigger the Visited state change with the button press. When revisiting the button with JAWS after the Visited state is triggered, the Normal state alt text is read.
If we do the exact same steps, but create a new Done state (add the same alt text, trigger, etc.) the Done state alt text is read by JAWS.
