MS Word - Commands to navigate to start or end of row or column do not report the correct cell anymore #15805

@CyrilleB79

Description

@CyrilleB79

Steps to reproduce:

  • Open a Word document and create a table (e.g. 4x4) with some content in each cell
  • Use the native Word commands to jump to the start or the end of row or column, i.e. Alt+Home, Alt+End, Alt+PgUp and Alt+PgDown

Actual behavior:

The content of the cell before the move is reported instead of the content of the landing cell.

Expected behavior:

The content of the landing cell should be reported instead.

Other questions

Does the issue still occur after restarting your computer?

Not tested

Have you tried any other versions of NVDA? If so, please report their behaviors.

NVDA 2023.2 NOK.
NVDA 2023.1 OK.

Thus it may be a regression of 2023.2 dev cycle.
From the change log, I imagine that #14708 or #14928 may have caused this regression, or just modified the timings so that a hidden bug has been uncovered. I have not bissected all the commits between 2023.1 and 2023.2 however.
Cc @jcsteh, any idea?

If NVDA add-ons are disabled, is your problem still occurring?

Yes

Does the issue still occur after you run the COM Registration Fixing Tool in NVDA's tools menu?

Not tested
