I shouldn't have to turn to Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Office just to read and respond to comments in a document. Can't test currently, but the Windows + for Context menu (i.e. keycode 135 keysym MENU : 0xFF67) according to a quick Google search, in addition to +, might be provided via + in some Linux DE, and by + on macOS -- you have to figure out the mapping for the MENU if not +. The xev utility should expose which on Linux. Otherwise Navigation down to the Comment object listing in the Sidebar Navigator deck should work the same cross platform. And once there, focus onto each to sound. Or open its context menu to manipulate. Would be nice to be able to get there directly via shortcut -- perhaps overloading the ++ to direct into the SB Navigator deck. -- V Stuart Foote -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: accessibility+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/accessibility/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy

I'll add two relevant tickets regarding the currently limited accessibility of Writer comments: * Allow editing comments using the keyboard: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=102054 * Comment text not interacted with by screen readers: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92389 Cheers Yes, it is more of a mess than I'd remembered. With Win10 and NVDA 2023.3.2 and LO 24.2.03 unfortunately the ++ or will land on the Comment but then does not sound them, suspect missing/mistyped accessible event on focus. They're only available via convoluted keyboard navigation into the Navigator Comments listing. I don't have an ORCA set up at the moment, but suspect similar there (only via context menu from the Navigator deck). Status as Christophe S. summarized in comment 11 of tdf#92389 [1] and as noted in the NVDA issues [2] [3]. Since then, the work on the Navigator deck has moved things along a little bit. The + 4 to land directly on the Navigator deck followed by and Cursor down movements down to the Comments nodes does expose the content of each of the comments. Additionally when focused on a comment in Windows the + will expose the context menu for the comment allowing editing and a go to action. But, much room to improve. =-ref-= [1] https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92389 [2] https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues/7700 [3] https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues/11684 -- V Stuart Foote -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: accessibility+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/accessibility/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
