Hi all, when using the keystroke NVDA+alt+c with the left alt key. NVDA, does not read the comment until the keystroke is released. This happens with all the language configurations on my keyboard. However when using the right alt key it works fine. This is a serious problem because a lot of Spanish speakers use NVDA and the right alt key is not available for this function on Spanish keyboard configurations.

I can't reproduce this. As soon as I press the "c", the comment is read.

I also don't really understand this report. Even if it did wait until the key was released, why should this matter? Normally, you release a key as soon as you've finished pressing it. And what key are you talking about, since there are three you are pressing?

In this kais if timing is not perfect when releasing the keys then word file menu is open which slows down production greatly It is the NVDA key by itself or the control key by itself that must be released first for NVDA to read comments. Remember to try to reproduce this with the left alt key.

Still can't reproduce it. Note that there was a next snapshot last week which would have caused this, but this has already been fixed. Please ensure you're running the latest next snapshot.

Closing, as no one is able to reproduce this issue, we are unable to contact the original poster, as far as I am aware of, and the issue that may of caused this has been resolved in snapshots as stated in #4335 (comment)
