Sounds as though they are making progress which is a good thing. I will try
this latest one with Supernova in the next day or so and let you all know if
it behaves the same way.
Best regards,
Tom

Subject: [libreoffice-accessibility] Latest LibreOffice and Java access
Bridge
Hello.
This is regarding Libreoffice 3.6.4 and its support for assistive
technology.
I'm using a Windows 7 Pro 32-bit machine installing the latest version of
Java from the Ninite installer; JAB is enabled via the control panel under
Ease of Access.
My screen reader is NVDA 2012.3.
While installing this latest version I was careful to check the box for
enabling support for assistive technology.
When I loaded Writer I received no feedback while navigating through menus.
I know the keystrokes for enabling a.t. support in the Options dialog and I
did this and then restarted Writer: this time I received a little more
feedback. This means that it is likely that a.t. support was in fact
disabled even though I checked the appropriate box during installation.
I have checked with a sighted person who verifies that a.t. support is
enabled in the options dialog.
While menus spoke and I can receive text feedback while moving through a
document dialog boxes are usually silent except for standard dialogs such as
the Open dialog.
As an example when I press alt-f4 I am prompted on whether I want to save
changes to my open document. when I press the tab key I hear nothing where
I should hear the names of the buttons as they gain focus.
I also notice that when Writer opens I rarely receive feedback in the first
document. when I open subsequent documents some audio feedback is
presented. Can anyone verify these findings?
