Creating alt text for complex images easier
Hey folks, I'm really glad to see this new accessibility Group on E-Learning heroes. Right now in my own line of work, I'm pushing for really accessible courses and it's quite crazy how trainers are...
Hey Sam,
Thanks very much for adding that! I 100% agree as well. There are lots of times when you just can't find a short alternative text so having it somewhere else accessible is a good idea. And yes, 100% agree about decorative images. I sometimes have trouble with staff marking everything as a decorative image which isn't ideal.
Thanks again.
So when giving a null value to an alt tag field in (say) Rise is it acceptable to put one blank space? I want to indicate to QA that it has been considered and set as null. Else I get a long list of "no alt tag set" back from them which can be, let us say... i8g
Thanks... got it.
Hi Stevie!
I see that SamHill was able to help you here with the correct value for marking images as decorative.
It sounds like you may be fulfilling a specific need for your QA team by not leaving the field blank, but for anyone else following along, I also wanted to share that images are marked decorative by default in Rise 360.Noted. Thanks!
