NEW: Accessibility Checker in Storyline
This is awesome. I especially like the centralized alt text editor. One request... is it possible to provide users the ability to turn certain aspects of the checker off. Our training community uses customized closed captioning which causes the Accessibilty Checker to erroneously indicate that we do not have closed captioning on. We can deal with the false reports but they cause confusion with our learning developers.
Hello MarkNolker​,
Thanks for your feedback and for requesting this modification!
The accessibility checker looks for caption files on media and audio assets to help ensure accessibility. Since captions are specific file types that need to be imported, the checker flags when they're missing.
We understand there are cases, like background videos with no audio, where captions aren't needed. In those situations and your current setup, the Skip button is the best option for now.
While there's no way to turn off specific parts of the checker at this time, I've shared your request with our product team. If you're open to it, we'd love to see your setup so we can better understand how your customized closed captions work. Feel free to share your project file here or privately in a support case.
Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have additional questions.
