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



Hello,
The issues with cursor position getting lost or stuck when navigating tables are both fixed for me.

Huge thanks.

However I think this negativelly affects some other tables. For example when working with Microsoft 365 admin center or new exchange online, they are using tables to presents users, group, files. These tables are best navigated with screen reader switched to focus mode i.e. focus is controlled by the web app.
However when selecting new row orca is no longer reporting the focus change.
If you would like to see it in action, I can put down precise steps on how to reproduce and share my login details to Microsoft 365 admin center in private mail.

Greetings

Peter

Hi Peter.

I don't know if it's this Firefox bug
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1794100 or not. But I'm
now working around that bug in Orca master and made some other
changes/fixes related to table cells. Could you please retest?

Thanks!

Hello
I think I have noticed a couple issues related to table presentation
in
firefox. I can reproduce this with Firefox 106 beta and Firefox 107
nightly. I haven't yet managed to try finding out when this has
started.

Common steps:
* Make sure both Orca and firefox are running
* Go to a website where there is a table e.g.
https://www.stoutner.com/url-modification/
* Make sure orca is switched to browse mode,
* Press ctrl+home to start reading the page from the top.
* Navigate to the only table at the page by pressing letter t,

First issue steps:
* Use table navigation commands alt+shift+down and alt+shift+right to
navigate to last column in the third row.
* Notice there is content yes in that cell. Use right arrow key to
read
it character by character navigating further past that cell. Once the
navigation wraps to the next row try to use table navigation commands
alt+shift+left and alt+shift+right to navigate by row in that table.

Actual:
I am finding orcas browse mode reading position to jump to the table
header i.e. first row and most right hand side column.

Expected:
alt+shift+left and alt+shift+right should allow navigating within the
current table row don't skipping to the first row of a table.

Second issue steps:
* Perform common steps until you land in the table.
* Use alt+shift+right and alt+shift+down to navigate to the row 5
column
4 of the table.
* Notice there is a word yes written in the cell I have asked you to
navigate to.
* Now use right arrow key to navigate past that cell continuing with
the
navigation to the next table row.
* When you are sure you are navigating within a different cell try to
use table navigation commands such as alt+shift+left,
alt+shift+right,
alt+shift+up and alt+shift+down.

Actual
Orca is seemingly stuck in that table cell position and it won't
allow
navigating table cells no matter what direction. It's reporting end
of
line all the time. The only way so table navigation commands can be
used
again is moving out of table and then returning back into table.

Expected:
Orca should not get stuck navigating a table.

Greetings

Peter

Hi,

Today I tried reading a table on sheets with firefox. The cell
coordinates are spoken if the cell is blank/empty. If a cell
contains
some text, eg. a name or number, I hear "Selected" but nothçing
else.
To see the content of the cell, I need to press f2 and have a look
at
the field to change the content.

An idea about what is happening? Is it a bug to report to Firefox?

As usual I use orca master, firefox daily, and so on.

Thanks for your help

regards
