    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!

This is wonderful news! Just wondering - does this apply to the "selected" state? Or just the "visited" state?

Hi MelanieSobie-14,

Great question! This update specifically applies to the Visited state. We haven’t received any related reports about the Selected state at this time. Are you currently running into issues with it?

If so, it would be super helpful if you could share a quick screen recording so we can take a closer look: How to send us a screen recording of your issue. You can share the recording here or privately in a support case.

Thanks for checking in, and we’ll be glad to help further.
