Accessibility differences between Lectora 18 and 19

Community Member Posts: 33
I’m still having a few issues with the reading order in JAWS/NVDA…
For example, in a colleagues course, a page with only one image and one text block (containing 3 paragraphs), where the JAWS reader skips reading the first paragraph entirely – or things like the reader mentioning, "Submit button unavailable. To activate press enter.", a curious instruction to try and get the user to select a disabled button.
We're using L18 and have had push-back from our department regarding an update to L19. Accessibility is a very large ask from my client and some specifics would be helpful to make a case for the update.
Thanks,
-Darrell.

There were 2 new accessibility features added to v19:
- <b data-stringify-type="bold">Accessible Lightbox Pop-ups</b>
- <b data-stringify-type="bold">Accessible Custom Form Elements</b>
For the complete list of new features and bug fixes checkout the v19 release notes.Regarding your JAWS/NVDA issue, we have a bug related to what you describe in our backlog. Hopefully we will get that fixed soon and out in a future release.
One suggestion I've heard related to this issue is to have the user trigger a read all from the top of the page by using the key combination INSERT + DOWN ARROW keys.
Hope this helps!
