Bug ID: 99855
Summary: Accessibility - Support Assistive
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: UI
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
See 73518 and 80332
Lo x86 5.1.3.2 on Win10 Pro x64
Dragon NaturallySpeaking is installed
I noticed, when scrolling in writer such that the cursor insertion point was
not visible, that on stoppling scrolling, the displayed page would jump back to
the location of the cursor. This annoying behaviour is something I associated
in the past with "assistive" technology in Word.
This led me to try to turn off Tools > Options > LibreOffice > Accessibility >
Support assistive technology tools only to find that clearing the check-box
will not stick. On restarting LO, the box always remains checked. Trying to
change the configuration as an administrator made no difference.
My reading of bug 80332 suggests to me that maybe LO has detected
NaturallySpeaking and has forcibly turned on assistive technology as a result.
I cannot test this as uninstalling NaturallySpeaking and then reinstalling
might use up one of my activations.
The bug is the inability to turn off assistive technology but I would be
interested to know if the scrolling behaviour noted above has anything to do
with assistive technology.
