[orca-list] Google Docs Bugs



Hello,

I am running into the following issues with Google Docs.

  • When pressing the home or end keys, extraneous information is spoken. This happens in both Firefox and Chrome, with and without Braille mode on. To reproduce, do the following:?
    • Enable Orca.
    • In Google Chrome or Firefox, navigate to docs.google.com and open an existing doc or create a new one.
    • Make sure focus mode is on and screen reader mode in Docs is on. This happens with and without Braille mode.
    • Type "This is line 1"
    • Press the home key to jump to the beginning of the line, and observe what is spoken.
    • Press end to jump to the end of the line and observe what is spoken.
      • Expected: When pressing home, the first letter is spoken. When pressing end, blank is spoken to indicate the end of the line.
      • Actual: When pressing home, the entire word, along with the first letter is spoken. When pressing end, I can't really tell what is spoken.
  • In Chrome, searching for Braille mode on in menu search in Docs doesn't speak state of checkbox. This works as intended in Firefox.
    • Enable Orca and open Chrome Dev.
    • Navigate to docs.google.com and open an existing doc or create a new one. Make sure screen reader mode is enabled.
    • Press alt+/ to open the menu search.
    • Type braille and listen to what is verbalized. Press enter to change the state.
    • Go back into the menu search and type braille again, and listen to what is spoken.
      • When Braille mode is checked, the checked state is not verbalized. When it is unchecked nothing is verbalized. The net effect is that users don't know whether Braille mode is on or off until they toggle it. In Firefox this is not an issue.
