Hi,
When using Powerpoint 2013, you cannot find out the contents of slides when tabbing through parts of the slide. For example, on a title slide, when you tab through slide parts, NVDA should announce the title and the subtitle. In pervious versions of Powerpoint, NVDA does announce them (such as in Powerpoint 2010); however, in Powerpoint 2013, NvDA says text boxes instead of speaking the content of this box.

STR:

  1. Open Powerpoint 2013. If you're prompted to create a new presentation, select that option.
  2. Once you're in slide list, press TAB to move to the first field, which should be title. Enter some text into this field.
  3. Press TAB to move to the subtitle content, then tupe something else.
  4. Press ESC to exit to slides list. Then press TAB to go through parts of the slide.
    Expected: NVDA announces the content of the slide such as titles.
    Actual: NVDA says text box.

Nav object info (at the title text box)

  • AppModule: powerpnt
  • Object: NvDAObjects.dynamic_EditableTextWithoutSelectDetectionUIA
  • Role: Graphic.

System specs:

  • Windows: Windows 7 64-bit.
  • Powerpoint: 2013 64-bit.
  • NVDA version: master.9525.

Thanks.
