Visual Studio IntelliSense overly verbose #8336

Description

@adincebic

To reproduce this issue:

  1. I created a console application
  2. In the main method I started typing "Console" and it reads ok
  3. When I press "." to access "WriteLine" or other method it reads the whole line. Which gets very confusing and anoying when lines get longer. Imagine pressing up or down arrows and for each item in the Intelli sense it repeats the whole line of code and lastly reads the item in the IntelliSense.
    For example, if the line is following:
    string name = string.format("Hello {0}", textField.text);

When I got to the point when I type "textField" and than "." it will repeat the whole line and than read the "text" property, and it repeats if I move up or down using arrow keys.

It is worth mentioning that this issue is not present when using Freedom scientific JAWS, but NVDA is much better choice for blind developers.

I also reported this issue to the Microsoft: https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/164719/nvda-screen-reader-is-not-working-properly-with-in.html
