NVDA does not allow for navigation within the misspelled word area of spell checker in outlook 2010 #4463
Comments
I wonder whether this is also reproducible in Word, which makes this a part of #3482. |
In response to @LeonarddeR's #4463 (comment): |
@xonic, @bhavyashah are you still able to reproduce the issue? |
I cannot reproduce the issue in Outlook 2016. |
But I can reproduce it in Outlook 2010. Here is part of the log file after pressing f7:

In MS Word and MS Excel 2010 this isue is not reproducible. Only in MS Outlook. |
Testing with NVDA 2017.3. I will test with NVDA 2018.4.1 soon. |
Testing with last Alpha 16557,318aaa5b the issue is still reproducible in Outlook 2010. I get following in the log:

I have to correct myself, in Outlook 2016 the issue is still reproducible with NVDA 2022.3.1. In fact NVDA does not report anything when navigating through the edit field with the misspelled word. |

When the spell checker of Outlook 2010 is activated by using f7, NVDA does not allow a user to navigate through the misspelled word and surrounding text.
Steps to recreate:
Load NVDA and outlook 2010.
Compose a new email in outlook 2010. In the message field, write a misspelled word, for example cattt
Press the f7 key to open the spell checker. NVDA should announce the misspelled word and when the tab key is pressed, NVDA should read out the suggestions. However, it is also possible to edit the misspelled word to correct it yourself without suggestions.
this area can be navigated via the arrow keys and can be reached by pressing the shift and tab keys once in the suggestion list, or by simply staying where you are once the f7 key is pressed.
NVDA announces carrage return, each time the left or right arrow is pressed, and blank, each time the up and down arrows are pressed, rather than the letters of the misspelled word.
Please note, this behavior does not occur in MS word 2010.
