No braille feedback in Windows Calculator #12268

@dkager

Description

@dkager

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open Windows Calculator.
  2. Type 2
  3. Type +
  4. Type 3
  5. Type = (or Enter)

Note that the new appmodule listens for the Enter key, but not the equals (=) key. However, both work to display the result. Speech reports the result when you press Enter, but braille provides no feedback regardless of what key you press.

Actual behavior:

The braille display continues to show "Display is 0".
There are two problems with this:

  1. As you type (without using speech) you cannot verify what you just entered.
  2. Once the result appears, you cannot read it unless you temporarily move the focus away from the display and back again.

Expected behavior:

The braille display shows each number, operator and result as you type.
