Hi,
Can you provide an example in which position information is spoken twice or more? Thanks.

If you are in a list or menu, when you move with arrow keys, NVDA says 1 of 8 for example; when you move again, NVDA says 2 of 8. and so on. I think NVDA would have an option allowing the user to make NVDA announce position information just once, none or always, not just none or always like NVDA does.

Hi,
Coming back to this ticket...
You might be thinking of number of items in the container (lists, tables, etc.). I think it might be a slight misunderstanding that may have brought this suggestion up, and since that ption talks about the current item only, I think it should be not implemented for now.
Thanks.

CC @josephsl to request further thoughts/inputs and assistance in triaging this ticket

@jcsteh, @derekriemer your thoughts are very appreciated. In my view at least, this would not really improve user experience. Because if we think of every setting in NVDA where you can either enable or disable it, we could add several varieties for those settings but then the user will ge overwelmed by too many variants for such simple settings.

I am closing this in favor of #8187 where the discussion goes in more detail. The results of the discussion in that issue might lead to a general conclusion upon which we can open a new issue or feature request if needed.
