Keyboard accessible drag-and-drop help
I've created a keyboard accessible drag-and-drop exercise in Storyline using these instructions which has worked great for both users who click & drag with a mouse and users who select with a keyboard. My challenge is when I try to add animation so incorrect responses are returned to their original position while correct responses remain in the drop field. I used these instructions to make that happen. And it works but only for users who click & drag with a mouse. Any ideas on how I could return incorrect drag-and-drop answers so it works for those using a keyboard as well?Rise 360: Implementing WCAG Guidelines for Instructional Designers

Hello All, I have some older/less technologically adept staff in our organization who get confused by the navigation UI in Articulate Rise. For example, when you start a microlearning module, you navigate from the first page by pressing/clicking the down arrow on the screen. However, some of my staff took that to be a visual indicator arrow, and were looking for/pressing any buttons below the actual area of the Rise learning window. I take this as an accessibility challenge that I can help accommodate to, rather than a user error. My ideal solution would be to be able to replace the arrow entirely (ex with a different button or shape), make it more of a visible button via emphasis lines, high-contrast background circle, or even customized text next to the arrow ("press the arrow to continue"). My intermediate solution is going to be to create modified backgrounds with embedded instructions, written instructions in the course page itself (less ideal given I'd be essentially replacing the title page to do so), or some kind of "how to navigate e-learnings" pdf as a precursor resource to any course. A way to modify and customize the slide-to-slide navigation would be best, though I'd love to hear how others have addressed this issue. Thanks!Accessibility for users with visual disabilities
Hi everyone, unfortunately I’m having a problem with the accessibility of a course created using Storyline 360. An image – which is important for the course because the user has to click on it to register their presence – is unfortunately not being ‘announced’ by the screen reader. The image can be reached using the Tab key; it is accessible and has alternative text, but the screen reader (JAWS) does not announce its presence ‘out loud’. What other settings do I need to change? What am I doing wrong? I’ve also tried replacing it with a button, but its appearance on the monitor is still not announced vocally. Thank you very much. CristinaDark mode for Storyline 360
Hi there Just wondering if there is a way now (or will be...) in SL360 settings to have the build tool adjustable to a dark grey background and tool bars like in the MS Office suite and Adobe CC programs. I jump from those with a nice dark grey to Storyline 360 and it's bright white window is a bit of a jolt on the eyes... Cheers SimonMaking Screenshots Accessible in Rise 360
How can screenshots be accessible in Rise 360, particularly when they contain text that learners need to read or reference? For example, in a training where learners need to see a form and understand what information goes where, how can that content be accessible to screen readers while still providing the visual reference? Are there any best practices or recommended approaches for handling this in Rise? Thank you in advance!
