I think I tend to agree with @jcsteh in #2850 (comment). Arrow keys are still command keys and this should not be changed. Feel free to reopen if someone disagrees. |

Hello!
Please, see #6553,
Most people, specially new screen readers and new NVDA users coming from
Jaws, want to hear the command keys, but not arrows...

I think we are ignoring a very significant number of users by ignoring this, and thus should rethink it. |

Hello!
I totally agree with @derekriemer. We need to rethink this one...
As I said in last comment, please see #6553.
1 - We must solve the problem of Enter and accents, since they are typed
characters;
2 - Most newbies, specially those coming from Jaws, have great complains
about do not hearing command keys, and it is totally improdutive hearing
constantly "right arrow", "left arrow", "up arrow" and "down arrow".

I also agree with @jcsteh and @ehollig on this matter. Note that JAWS in
general has a weird way of handling key echo (e.g. it ties command key echo
to the speak characters/words options)

When I check the Speak command keys checkbox in the keyboard settings, NVDA announces the arrow keys too. I think it disturbs the users. Is it possible to remove the arrow key announcing, or add a checkbox wherewith the users can be configure it?
