Tabing through input fields - yellow box

Figured out a work around for this....  Simply place an object such as a shape off screen.  This will keep the Tab focus on the slide.

Still am curious if there is anything in SL to prevent this.

Hi Bill,  there is a setting that controls this. Right Click on the object and select the Size and Position option. Check the Alt Text to see if the "Object is visible to accessibility tools" is enabled. If it is you will get this yellow box when using the Tab. If this is not selected and you are still getting the yellow box, it is a bug.

Hey Bruce,

Yeah, I'm still on RC9 and yes that's exactly what it is.. Just didn't remember that's what it was for.

Hi Nancy,

Though i'm still on RC9, when I would tab to the next text field the entire slide would highlight yellow as opposed to the text field itself.

Hi Bill,  RC9 had a bug in it that caused this yellow box to appear.  They provided a fixed version during the test cycle but unless you downloaded it, you might still be running the version with the bug. I suggest downloading the  trial version of the released product.

Hi, I have this problem, I have a number of input fields that the user presses tab to jump to the next input field, however, when Tab is pressed a yellow outline box appears and it is so inconvinient, Is there any way to disable this yellow box for the entire scene(menus, volume, menu items), please it is really important.

I am using the storyline version 0812.

Hi Vero!

Here's how to disable the yellow accessibility box:

Hi Peter

Thanks for answer, but I have yet the yellow box for the menu, botons or others UI, it disable for MY objetcs but not for objetcts of storyline, How can I disable definitly this yellow box.

Hi Vero, 

Thanks for clarifying. Currently, the only workaround is to place one or more objects off-slide so that the accessibility box goes there first. Please feel free to fill out a feature request form to let our developers know it's important to you to have the ability to remove it from all slide and player elements. Thanks!

Is there more to it than just adding an object off slide?  I added a shape off slide and still get the yellow box when I tab on that slide.
