Tab key needs to be hit twice to move to next button

Hi Russ,

I appreciate you reaching out to share what you are experiencing with your custom buttons.

• How were these created?
• Is it multiple shapes to create the button, and the screen reader may be selecting an additional item?

I'd recommend double-checking the alt text of the items:

Storyline 360: Adding Alternative Text for Screen Readers

If you need any help, feel free to attach a slide to your reply here, and we can take a look.

Hi Leslie,

The screen shot below shows the State for the Next button.  All of my buttons have two states with a single SVG file for each state.  Not multiple items.  

Another issue I just noticed is that when I publish the course to the Review page to share with people the text is changing from standard weight to a bold weight.  I assume this is an SVG bug?  Do I have to do anything in post publishing with SVG items like this?  

Hi Leslie,

This looks to be an issue with SVGs being used for States.  I just add a standard button from SL and a button with PNGs for each state.  Both of these buttons worked as they should.  One TAB.  Is this a bug?  I truly love how great SVG buttons look.  

Hi Leslie,

More research here.  I just created a new button from SVGs and it works fine.  The buttons I am having issues with originally had PNG files as States but I "replaced" the images for each state with SVG files.  Apparently, that does not work.  I assume this is a bug?  Now I have to go in and create all-new buttons.  Can you confirm if this is a known issue?

Hi, Russ.

Thank you for the additional information!

Would it be possible to share the .story file with our support team so we can investigate this further?

Maria...I reached out and Cleo Sinues looked at a file of mine.  He could not recreate the problem I was having.  It seems at its simplest fix is to never create a button with PNG states and then switch them to SVGs.
