Multiple response quiz questions not keyboard accessible

Hi Martin!

You'll need to use the SPACE bar to select answers. Have you tried moving through the answer choices with the arrow keys and then press the SPACE bar to select the answer? Then you can tab to the Submit button.

Let me know if that helps!

Lauren,

Thanks so much for your reply! That worked perfectly. I never realized that the spacebar was the key to select each of the responses. I've tested with using both the Tab and arrow keys to navigate to each answer, and both methods work equally as well.

Thanks again,

Marty

Can I report that I have had exactly the same issue, and until reading this just now  had no idea about the Space bar! 

Can I suggest that Articulate add both options (multiple choice and multiple select) onto the Shift+? list as standard as soon as possible to help keyboard users out? I'm having to add a lightbox slide into every course I make at the moment with the inbuilt options NOT currently listed. 

Thank you :-)

Thank you for sharing your experience with us, Samantha! Glad this forum post was of help to you.

We'd be happy to have you submit your thoughts in a feature request.

You can see what we are currently working on in our Feature Roadmap.

I hope this helps!

Yes, thank you!

Hi I just ran into this . My question is, would this UI of using the spacebar to select Multiple Responses be something a keyboard user would know? Or should I add an instruction on-screen?

Also, has any other method for selection been added since this discussion 2 years ago, such as the feature request above?

Hi Anne!

Yes. Using the spacebar to check/uncheck a checkbox is standard keyboard navigation. For this reason, we have not added any additional methods. I'll let you decide if additional instructions would be best for your learners.

Here's a resource from WebAIM on keyboard accessibility.
