ok,
so I edited a google doc. I added heading level one style to some major
sections. I downloaded it as a docx file. When I open it in libreoffice
writer, latest version. NVDA says something like:
number asbfbfbd23 bookmark -- then the text -- which is part one.
It should just tell me that part one has a heading level one style applied
to it.
That's hard to judge/analyze without having access to a sample document.
If you consider this a bug: Would you mind creating a bug report at
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/ and attach a (non-confidential)
sample document there?
Also, can we have a document review option where the document can
quickly be opened in a web browser or in the screen reader's browse mode
for quick review, then when the virtual cursor is turned off or when put
back into focus mode, the cursor is right there, ready for editing? Maybe I
am spoiled by google docs, but I just like hitting control apostrophe and
control semicolon to jump between misspellings and grammar errors and then
use the context menu to quickly insert a suggestion instead of a separate
spellcheck dialog box. Is there a libreoffice extension that will add this
or can this be added in the next libreoffice version?
It's a bit unclear to me whether you're talking about a single feature
here or whether these are 2 separate aspects.
That's also because you also mention opening in a web browser as one
option (where editing with LibreOffice won't be possible). If you want
that, you can export the document to HTML (using "File" -> "Save As"),
then open the resulting HTML file in a browser.
Adding support for NVDA browse mode for LibreOffice itself will need
work in both, LibreOffice and NVDA and is tracked here:
https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues/8148
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=137955
For the alternative mode to navigate between misspellings, I'm not sure
whether this is directly related to the quick review/browse mode idea or
more of a separate request not specific to (screen reader) accessibility?
I'm myself not aware of a LibreOffice extension providing that
functionality, but maybe others do.
Regarding adding a new feature to LibreOffice itself, it's generally
best to to submit a corresponding feature request to Bugzilla to keep track.
