This is another reason why there will always be work to do in the PDF when it comes to PPT.

Thanks,

Subject: Re: [WebAIM] PowerPoint_Reading Order

Hi Craig,

I'm having the same problem as Claire. When I select "bring to front" it visually moves the item to the front where it needs to be, but unfortunately it also simultaneously changes the reading order, moving the item down the list to where it does NOT need to be. I have not found a solution. (I'm using PowerPoint 365 now, but I used to have the same problem in PowerPoint 2019 using the Selection Pane).
