Storyline 360 Tab Order

Hi Lauren, first off thank you so much for taking the time to help me figure this out.  So, I understand the second one perfectly.  If layers come up on a base layer and you can see everything then I put base layer button, then layer items, then next base layer button, then layer items and so forth, and I don't have to go into any of the hide settings.

For the first one.  I understand now that if my layer covers the entire slide up the screen reader still goes back to the base layer and through the whole thing, where I just want them to go to the next button, so we hide the base layer specifically for the screen reader to ignore it while the learner is on the layer.

Do I have this right?

So I think my last question is for the first recording.  Do I do Base slide button 1 in the focus order followed by the layer 1 , then Base slide button 2, or when layers cover a full base slide do you put the order as all the buttons first and then all the layers in order.  Does that make sense?  If I can understand that part then I think I get focus order better.

Also, do you know where articulate is on requests that have been submitted on focus order?  The top recording slide is a perfect example of how articulate puts the base slide objects at the bottom of the list and the layers in reverse order, so for a slide like that it can take a while to clean up, plus you can only click one item at a time.  I submitted requests years ago, and this one I am surprised they haven't reversed it yet.  I also submitted a request about the naming of the first column.  If you have a long slide title it takes up the whole column and you don't even see what the object is.   So just curious on that stuff.

Cheers
