I understand that it may take time to do this but as I use Microsoft Word regularly with NVDA, I wish I could have access to this information.
Too bad I can not help you because I do not know Python or I'll get you help with great pleasure because I am to improve so he can compete NVDA JAWS!

You are doing a great job!

I suggest to improve the function NVDA + F so that it can detect in all Microsoft Word versions:

  • The color of the police;
  • The color of the highlight;
  • The different types of highlighting;
  • If the text is shaded if it has contours, if it is raised or if there are borrowed;
  • If the character is lowercase or uppercase;
  • If the text is hidden;
  • The shading and color it;
  • The border and the color of it;
  • Withdrawals;
  • The line spacing;
  • The general alignment and vertical alignment in Microsoft Excel;
  • The height and width of the cell in Word and Excel;
  • The format cells in Excel;

I suggest if possible to add a command (eg F + NVDA times) that will read the endnotes page, endnotes document, comments, saying if the cell contains a formula .. .

Will winwordTextInproc experiment/branch address this enhancement request?

Following items are already addressed in winwordTextInproc:
• The color of the police;
(foreground, not background, which should still occur)
• I suggest if possible to add a command (eg F + NVDA times) that will read the endnotes page, endnotes document, comments
(WinwordTextInproc will automatically read the presence of comments, footnotes, end notes, both numbers and within frames)

The following items have not yet been addressed:
• The color of the highlight;
• The different types of highlighting;
• If the text is shaded if it has contours, if it is raised or if there are borrowed;
• If the character is lowercase or uppercase;
• If the text is hidden;
• The shading and color it;
• The border and the color of it;
• Withdrawals;
• The line spacing;
• The general alignment and vertical alignment in Microsoft Excel;
• The height and width of the cell in Word and Excel;
(hopefully, winwordTextInproc) will address these additional formatting information)

Please file a different ticket for the following:
• The format cells in Excel;
• saying if the cell contains a formula

(Please only file one issue per ticket.)

Attached wordindent.patch is to support announcement of "Paragraph Indent" in Microsoft Word.

NVDA already can announce the indent of text, however, Microsoft Word has very different concept of "Paragraph Indent", which is similar to the alignment.

The feature is originally introduced in NVDA 2013.1jp (Japanese fork of NVDA) because of the strong demand in Japan, however, I wish mainstream version of NVDA should support this feature.

It may need some rework because this feature depends on both font-size and alignment in the format settings, so far.

Hi,
I'm working supporting reporting of extra formatting structure
in Excel. Was a ticket filed for Excel as requested in the comments ?
If so, please provide me the number.
Thanks

Hi,
Can we combine this and #550, or move 550's scope to this ticket since this one is more descriptive (in my opinion) and we have a patch ready for review?

#550 is more general (probably too general), whereas this ticket is specific to Word.

Since most of this seems to be implemented I'm going to close this issue. If there are some missing features that are required, please open a new issue (one per feature), and provide an example document and the expected output. Thanks!
