Scenario Blocks - Are they accessible?
I am using VoiceOver to check course content for accessibility. I'm having trouble entering the Scenario Block grouping. Is there a special keyboard combination that will allow me to access the individual items?
UPDATE: Never mind, I got in. However, it appears that all the images in the scenario are tabbed through first, before any of the script blocks can be accessed. Is that normal and is there any way to change this behavior?
Interactive Scenario Blocks
- On text content, use the Tab key to select the Continue or Start Over button, then press Enter or spacebar.
- On dialogue content, use the Tab key to select responses and the Continue or Try Again button, then press Enter or spacebar.

My experience is that these are not accessible as the focus order is not managed. When using a screen reader to access this content, the focus is not directed to the new content within the scenario and a screen reader user is likely to miss most of the scenario content.
Thank you, Sam. I was able to confirm that, using VoiceOver (at the least), the images are all read in first, then I get to the text boxes. If we were able to control the focus order, we could associate them together, in the proper order.
