Triggers for keyboard navigation- branching scenario
I'm trying to make this course (my first one!) accessible by keyboard navigation only. I've set the focus order so that users can press tab to move through the different options. I'm trying to figure out how to create a trigger so that when the user presses enter when they've selected their answer, it takes them to the appropriate slide. Right now, when I select jump to slide or show layer when user presses a keyit's adding a condition- after clicking on this slideor clicking on object. I don't want them having to click on any objects- that's the whole point of keyboard navigation, right? What should I do? I did create another state- the object when selected- and had thought to create triggers like jump to slide when user presses enter if object (envelope) is selected but that doesn't seem to be working either. Are there any workarounds for this? Or is there something I'm doing wrong? I can upload more attachments if needed. Thank you so much!Closed Captioning Tips and Proposed Improvements
I've found a way to quickly create captions for my Storyline files by importing my audio files to Microsoft Clipchamp and selecting the Captions (CC) option. Clipchamp quickly creates the .srt files making it very easy to import these files into the Storyline captions editor. I typically need to break up a couple of the captions, so the periods are at the end of the caption and not in the middle (personal preference) and quickly check the spelling of common homophones (e.g. die could be spelled dye, etc.). Does Articulate have any plans to add spellcheck to captions? My biggest issue with the Storyline captions is the editing screen. When I expand the window to fill my screen in the hopes of being able to see it better, the audio is the only component that gets bigger. I don't need to see the audio in this screen; I need to see the captions and the preview. I can barely see these on my screen because they are so small! Hopefully Articulate can increase the viewing size of these components in a future update!NVDA and Rise Video Player
Hello, anyone else have this issue: We have multiple videos in our course (using Multimedia/Video block. Not embed). When testing for accessibility using NVDA 2024.3, it reads the "Volume Level" button repeatedly. This is causing us to fail accessibility criteria. Has anyone experienced this issue as well? Does anyone have a solution? It is not the project since we have tested on a few and the behaviour is the same. Note: embed YouTube videos don't seem to have this issue. Thanks in advance for any input/ideas!Closed Caption Text Has Shadow
I used text-to-speech using the slide notes for a prototype in Storyline 360 (current update). All of the closed captions have this awful text shadow that I don't seem to be able to eliminate (see attached screenshot). I have gone to the player>colors & effects>closed captions and adjusted the font, text color, background color, font size, and position, but there is nowhere in there to adjust the text shadow. Does anyone have a suggestion for how to eliminate this without rebuilding the whole file? Thanks!Table with row headings
I need to be able to create a table in either Storyline or Rise that has both column headings AND row headings, and I need it to be 508 accessible and properly read out both headings along with cell contents. As best I can tell, both products only support column headings. The recommendation is to use an image of a table and then describe it in alt text, which I know my 508 auditor will not accept. Has anyone found a solution to this?Accessibility Best Practices in eLearning
