    Hi, all!

    I have some great news to share! We just released a new version of Storyline 360 (Update 103), which included a fix for the issue where screen readers didn't always announce the visited state of buttons or shapes.

    To take advantage of this update, simply launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You'll find step-by-step instructions here.

    Please let us know if you have any questions by posting here or reaching out to our Support Engineers directly. We'll be happy to help!

Hi Lauren!

Thank you for sharing the details of what you are experiencing. 

I tested this on my end and had the same outcome as you did with NVDA reading the selected state and the normal state text when the slide is tabbed through.

As a follow-up question: which screen reader are you using?

I can add your experience to the bug we are working on and update you with any news in this thread!
