Flexible ring of settings #7747

@Adriani90

Description

@Adriani90

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open a document with several formating atributes (i.e. different cell Colors in a table, different text Fonts etc)
  2. Navigate through the text and identify separately green cells, then part of Areal text, then indentations etc.

Expected behavior:
The user should have the flexibility to add or remove settings from the ring to optimize its way of productivity. In this case, document formating Settings should be added to the ring. When sellecting one Setting of this cathegory (i.e. Colors), Colors should be reported when navigating through the document.

Actual behavior:
The ring of settings has not changed since many years although it is one of the most significant advantage of NVDA compared to other screen readers. In this case, users have to go to the document formating Settings and check or uncheck the coresponding Settings every time.
