Scroll panels - JAWs screen reader
Are scroll panels read properly by the JAWs screen reader using Articulate 360? I haven't tested the functionality yet and was curious on how to use scroll panels while meeting accessibility require...
I have uploaded a .storyfile with an example of the related issue. I have tested this in NVDA and JAWS and get the same result. Once I tab to the scroll panel, if I hit tab, it moves away from the scroll panel to the next object, if while still focused on the scroll panel I hit the down arrow key, it move the scroll down, but does not read the content, instead it starts to count numbers. If by chance I am going at this incorrectly and need to make different keyboard selections please let me know.
Hi Garry!
Thank you for sharing your .story file!
To read text in the scrolling panel, you’ll need to put the screen reader back into Browse Mode via Insert + Spacebar. This will select the entire scrolling panel for you to scroll through.
Please let me know if you run into any trouble!
