Release Notes: June 26, 2023 - New Editor Accessibility, SEO, and Layer Order Updates

These are updates around the layer order of your widgets, and how this is reflected in a screen readers tab order. 

• Defining the Layer Order: The order of layers to be read out loud by the screen reader is bottom to top. This means that the layer which is present at the bottom of your layer tab will be read first and so on. Please keep this in mind as you design your content for screen readers! 
  
  
• Mute/Unmute Layer: Need to remove a layer from being read out loud by the screen reader? It’s as easy as a hover and a click! Simply hover over the specific layer in the layers tab and select the newly introduced “Mute” button. This tiny sound icon, located next to the eye and lock icons, will do the trick. But wait, there’s more! You can also perform this action in bulk by selecting multiple layers, right-clicking, and choosing to “Exclude/Include from screen readers”. Empowering you with complete control and flexibility.
  
  
• Newly Introduced Filters: We know your layer tab can get crowded with both muted and unmuted layers. That’s why we’ve introduced a powerful new filter. With a single click, you can now view only “Accessible Layers” that will be read out loud by the screen reader. Alternatively, you can switch to “Non-Accessible Layers” that will be completely skipped by the screen readers. It’s all about customizing your accessibility experience and making it seamless for every user.
