Hey everyone,
The latest versions of Storyline 360 simply do not meet our accessibility needs with the JAWS screen reader. Because of that, I've been keeping my Storyline 360 at version 3.35 (December 2019) before the new accessibility player was released. This version is no longer available to roll back to. Is there a way that I can have access to version 3.35 to roll-back when needed? Many government clients simply cannot get the JAWS reader to work properly with the new player.
I'll share that when I asked this recently, I was told that we weren't gonna be able to roll back beyond what was available in the app (https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-storyline/visually-disabled-learners-are-currently-unable-to-differentiate-between-an-active-and-a-disabled-next-button).
This has been a frustrating rollout of accessible features as I keep encountering problems that keep me from using the latest versions. I'm currently stuck on 3.40.x because of an issue with question feedback (https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-storyline/accessibility-issue-with-multiple-choice-question-feedback). Every release turns into an evaluation of what's fixed versus what's newly broken.
