Some Storyline accessibility questions
Hello, all! I have been reading up on accessibility and Storyline, but I have a few questions that I'm not finding answers to.
First, I understand Focus Order and using it to determine what and how the screen reader will read aloud. How does it work when there is a slide layer? I have a slide with a base layer and a button to show a layer with a video on it. When I view the Focus Order (both on base layer and on video layer), the video and close-layer button are visible, as is everything I want read on the base layer. However, I don't want the video or close-layer button to be read when user is on bas layer AND I don't want all the base layer stuff to be read again when the layer is shown.
Second, I used Camtasia and Audiate to create closed captions for the video. I then uploaded the MP4 into Storyline. I thought that all I would need to do would be to toggle on the captions (control alt C) to see the captions, but that wasn't the case. Is there another step? I am not using the player for this project.
Third, I did not use Text Styles to indicate headings or normal text. I have a bold version of my font for the heading and a regular version for the body. Basically, I use them if I want to change up the look between bold and regular and adjust the size to what I need. I have done nothing with Text Styles. If I designate something on a slide as Heading 1, will that do anything to my project other than indicate to a screen reader that that is a heading?
Thanks in advance for any help and insight people are able to provide.
