Various issues related to text alignment in Excel #15206

@CyrilleB79

Description

@CyrilleB79

Steps to reproduce:

  • Open this Excel document: ExcelAlignment.xlsx
  • In document formatting settings (NVDA+control+D), check the "Alignment" checkbox and validate
  • Move the selected cell from B1 to B7

Actual behavior:

The speech viewer contains the following text:
align default
Standard
align left
Left
align right
Right
align default
Centered across columns overflowing
align justify
Justify
align default
Rep
align default
Distributed
align default
cell

Expected behavior:

All alignments should be correctly reported, more specifically centered across columns, repeated, distributed.

Also the "default" alignment in Excel should not be reported the same way as the "default" reported in Chrome on a button, where no alignment information is available.

Thus the speech viewer should contain the following text:

align general
Standard
align left
Left
align right
Right
align centered across columns
Centered across columns overflowing
align justify
Justify
align fill
Rep
align distributed
Distributed
align default
cell
