Storyline 360: Accessibility Checker Covered Issues
When you create a new Storyline course or edit an existing one, the accessibility checker automatically scans your course content for the covered issues listed in the table below and displays any that apply to the course. You’ll also get clear, actionable guidance on how to fix the issues found.
This table will be updated and expanded as we add new covered issues to the accessibility checker. Note that not every issue listed here will appear in every course.
