Re: [orca-list] Orca no longer speaks the contents of cells in Sheets with firefox

[Rastislav Kish <rastislav kish protonmail com>]

Hello,

yes, in addition, when doing a search on a page, the table navigation
doesn't work right from the start.


* On the page mentioned by Peter, or any other page containing a table
with text, search for a string from the table.

* Try to navigate around using Alt+Shift+Arrows


Expected behavior


Orca navigates around the table as usual.


Actual behavior


Orca reports end of the line regardless of the focused cell and the
requested movement.


This can lead to tricky situations, since some tables can contain
hundreds of elements, searching is often the only reasonable option to
find what one wants, and it's currently hard to explore the found spot
in the table.


Best regards


Rastislav
