Need learners to be able to copy text from Storyline module inserted in Rise course
I understand that accessible text in storyline meets the needs of WCAG 2.2 and that using helper bird extension allows scale. WCAG 3.0 implementation as a standard is at least a year away if not more.
For that reason I would expect this to age on Articulate's radar and hopefully is implemented sooner rather than later.
Thats indeed nice for testing as a developer. Not sure though if this fits the bill for accessibility for the enduser.
No, I am just letting you know, that this is indeed a tool that is used by some for accessibility, and it is why in the specification, to meet accessibility requirements (1.4.12), you should allow somebody to increase letter spacing, line-height, paragraph heigh and font-size. When I say we test using a stylesheet, it is to set these properties, and because people with a visual impairment may use the same technique. I'm talking about as an end user, not as a developer. When using a custom stylesheet to manipulate these properties (loaded through a browser extension) it is to test as a user, and not as a developer. I think you are still misunderstanding what I mean.
We're a bit of topic here, but a user, using their own defined stylesheet, to override the styles the developer has set, is definitely something that users will do (for accessibility), and do do. For example, some users may have defined a high contrast stylesheet for a news website they visit.
This is to meet WCAG 2.1, 1.4.12 Text Spacing : https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/Understanding/text-spacing.html
