So, in the new update to MS Word, I'm noticing something very irritating. I'd be very much willing to call the Accessibility Help Desk and let them know about this bug, but I don't want to do so until someone else can reproduce the issue, as maybe it's just me, I dono.
Anyway, so if I'm in a document typing along, then need to move word by word, regardless if I'm first interacting with the text area or not, if I press option+left or right arrow to move word by word, option+left arrow to move to the previous word gives very inconsistent and sometimes very weird results. Usually it moves to the previous word, but it doesn't speak the previous word. It normally instead speaks the current word the cursor was on. Then if I press it again a second time, it still speaks that same word again and again regardless how many times I press it. The insertion point is moving correctly, it's just that Voiceover's not tracking it correctly. Then, if I option+right arrow to move to the next word, again, the cursor moves, but consistently 100% of the time, Voiceover is audibly saying absolutely nothing and is staying totally silent. I can move reliably left and right arrow character by character, but not word by word. So, whoops there. Again, I'm happy to file this with them, but I just want to see if any of you guys are also getting these same results. Try going to a blank document and typing: Hello, this is a test. Then try moving around with option+left and right arrows. Chris. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
