Storyline 360: radio buttons accessibility with JAWS
I created a course containing a test with multiple choice questions utilizing radio buttons (example attached). I noticed while testing accessibility (with JAWS 16.0 and IE11) that when you tab to a radio button, it will say "radio button not checked, to change the selection press up or down arrow" however, pressing the up or down arrow doesn't do anything. Is there something I'm doing wrong when creating the test or is this an issue with Storyline 360 and radio button accessibility? No where in the documentation did I find any mention of radio buttons not being accessible, so I'm assuming its the former.

Hi
This is a thread I am interested in - I would like to use radio buttons for ten questions which needs to be accessible with Jaws. As the last post was three years ago, could someone confirm if the issue is now resolved?
Thanks.

I have been having better luck with questions since then. The tool has
greatly improved in all accessibility areas. Your best bet is to get the
trial copy if you have not already done so, or unless you have a
subscription already. Set up a couple of questions and use your
assortment of OS's, browsers, and readers to get familiar with the
differences in how they handle the content.I have been satisfied that they work in the vast majority of cases since
earlier this year.
