Comment 4 by Brendon22 on 2014-05-29 10:53 This would be so great if this to be fixed. Currently you can't do this at all with NVDA? Is there any chance of this being fixed soon? Thank you. |

Comment 7 by Brendon22 on 2014-06-23 20:33 Thank you for looking into this. The search feature can be used if you are trying to get to a part of a document you are reading. So I use it for marking parts of my documents with my name and the date. and I can type this in and move directly to the spot. Also it is great for moving to peoples names. So say that you have a address list done up in word, and you had two people with the same first name, but had different last names, you could move to their names as well quickly. Also another point I will raze is that sighted people have access to this feature. Does that help? |

Comment 9 by Brendon22 on 2014-06-25 21:59 Very sorry, here you are: So I open word and type in two of the same words, let's use Apple for this example. So I type these two words into the document and let's say that I want to find the second Apple in the document. So I move to the top of the document with Control+Home and then I press Control+F and type in the word Apple and press enter, NVDA, says nothing to you so you don't know if you have even moved to the word Apple. Pressing enter again should move to the second word, and this should be spoken out but it isn't. I hope this helps. |
Comment 10 by jteh on 2014-06-25 23:00 That said, I do notice that Word 2010 doesn't bring up an error dialog when text isn't found like it used to, so we possibly need to consider reading the number of matches which Word displays in the toolbar. |
Comment 11 by Brendon22 on 2014-07-01 12:09 Thank you for your reply. Yes, I agree with you. But the search button doesn't get focus after the first search result has happened. So when I press enter after the first search result NVDA says Next search Result and then I press enter to search for another time. All NVDA says is pressed, when it should say Next Search result. Do you understand? Thank you. Brendon Donohue. |

Hi. When going into word 2010 Pro The 32-Bit Version. And pressing CTRL+F to do a serch of the whole document. NVDA will report the first item that you move to. But if you were serching for a second word that was the same as the first word so there were to words of the name of Brendon in your document. NVDA will not report that you've moved to the second word and this is true for any more than two words. Using NVDA Version 2012.2beta1. Thanks for all your nice work!
