Hi there, I am learning it is challenging to test using NVDA when you don't have the special keyboard or you are really unfamiliar with its use. For the most part I seem to be able to bounce around...
Hi TeresaVanderpos!
Sorry to hear you're having trouble navigating a Rise course with the NVDA screen reader!
I created a sample Rise lesson containing a Storyline Block that preceded a Timeline Block. Using NVDA, I began the course by using the TAB key to focus on the lesson from the sidebar menu. Then, I clicked the ENTER key to move focus to the Blocks within the body of the course. I suggest following these steps in lieu of using the RIGHT ARROW key, as you shared.
Next, after Tabbing focus to the Storyline Block, I found it helpful to click the UP ARROW key once, before interacting with the Storyline content. This UP ARROW command re-aligned the Storyline Block within the webpage, helping NVDA to focus more precisely. After I completed the Storyline interaction, I used the DOWN ARROW key to switch focus to the Timeline Block. Upon this transition, NVDA announced each Timeline title item correctly.
If you're still having trouble, seeing a screen recording of the behavior, as well as a link to the Rise course you've been working with, would be helpful. Feel free to share those items here in the discussion or privately through a support case.
Thanks Steven, this is very thorough, I will try this out.
