[libreoffice-accessibility] Initial Comments with LibreOffice 5.1 and Screen Readers
As I stated in a previous reply which I sent to this list, I'm running Windows 10 Pro, 64-bit edition with NVDA 2016.1 and Window-Eyes 9.3. Thankfully, the accessibility experience appears to be what I'm used to with older versions of LibreOffice. There is an odd issue with Calc which I initially thought was corrected but, as I now remember, I think the fix was only a partial one. When using Calc, I am able to easily navigate from one cell to the next using arrow keys and NVDA reads the contents of the cell if "report table cell coordinates is enabled in the Document Settings dialog. However, when I open a new workbook at that point, NVDA may read the first two cells but then stops reading as I move arrow keys. If I alt-tab to the last open window and then alt-tab back into the workbook, cells are read normally as I use arrow keys. Window-Eyes 9.3 still causes Writer and Calc to crash when they are opened. When running Window-Eyes, the first time I opened Writer it told me that Writer crashed and would save recovered files but subsequent attempts to open Writer yield no output. It's as if the program never opened. This behavior occurred with a previous version of Window-Eyes and I will therefore report this to AI Squared, the developer of this particular screen reader. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: accessibility+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/accessibility/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
Re: [libreoffice-accessibility] About to Download LO5.1
Hi. Well, I just installed LO 5.1. Machine is running Windows 10 Pro, 64-bit with 8 GB of RAM. I have two screen readers installed: NVDA 2016.1 and Window-Eyes 9.3. First, I never had the experience of having NVDA reading a page number when navigating word by word across a punctuation symbol and I honestly would not want this information in that particular situation. The only time I would want NVDA to read page numbers when moving word by word is if I cross a page boundary, such as moving from page 1 to page 2, and in that case the information would be useful. In fact, when pressing ctrl-enter to create a new page, NVDA does correctly report when crossing over to a new page if "report pages" is enabled in the document settings dialog.

hi. i tested libreoffice 5.1 and saw difference in accessibility. for example: in previous versions, when i wanted to navigate word by word using control left and control right, when there was a punctuation nvda first says the page number and blank. but in 5.1 when i there is a punctuation, nvda does not announce page number. instead, says the punctuation and then blank. for example: says kama blank or question blank and other punctuation marks. hope that be useful for you and help you.
