Tabbing not working
Hi all, It's me again (at a different company now!)
Essentially, it's a problem that seems to come up again and again, but I'm not able to tab through to the text boxes (both in preview and in published SCORM) even when using the arrows.
As a bit of context, I've tried both with "upgraded" project text and regular text boxes, and I'm struggling a bit with getting this working, especially with the factors of accessibility for visual-impaired students.
I'm running the latest version of Storyline
TIA,
Alistair
Which screen reader are you using? The text will never take focus it will only be read by the screen reader as you use the up and down arrows. The interactive objects will take focus as you tab.

tab key only works with interactive objects, you should be able to move between the textboxes using up and down arrows.

Thanks, I tried using the up/down arrows, but that hasn't worked either :(
Looks like PhilMayor got your solution, but just chiming in that it's great to see you re-joining from another company :) Hope the new gig is going great!

I'm using Edge's in-built one, as that's what the majority of students will be using

I would suspect anyone with accessibility needs will use Jaws or NVDA. Is it not behaving how I suggested?
- PhilMayorSuper Hero
It works fine in NVDA so I would say it is working as expected. Review is not great to check as it is inside an iframe so you must make sure you are inside the iframe to start the review.

Ah perfect! Thanks for letting me know Phil!
