Using nvda snapshot r3730, Report object position information is turned on, did not tell the position while arrowing in windows explorer.

Steps to reproduce:

  • Go to "Computer" in windows 7, arrow up/down in the drive list, only tell the drive name, but not the position.
  • Go to "Computer > Drive c:" arrow up/down folders/files list, did not tell the position.

Note: it is working fine while at the desktop.

Hmm. These are actually table rows, so they should be covered by report tables. Nevertheless, it's definitely not doing that here either.

UI Automation has no standard way to expose position information apart from table cells and this part isn't treated as a table cell. I seem to recall there was some custom UIA property for Explorer. Even if I'm right, one problem is that uniquely identifying this list view is rather difficult.

Hi,
Coming back to this ticket just in case people still have issues.
I cannot reproduce this in Windows 8.x. I might have to test it on my Windows 7 VM's to see if it still exists.

Hi,
Just tested with Windows 7 VM's and can confirm that position info is announced. Can you try with NVDA 2014.2 and see if position information is spoken? Thanks.
