Storyline update has broken accessibility
I have updated Articulate storyline to the latest version and now all of the hidden graphics are reading out when testing with JAWS. Artifacts on the Slide master that are hidden and all graphics that are on the main pages but not included in the focus order. I just test with a colleague at work who has not incorporated the latest update and the screen reader is reading the correct focus order. Can you please advise??
We have also noticed this problem with the latest update.
