Fixes #10254
Summary of the issue:
When writing a message in MS Outlook, shift+tab may be used to go from the message body to the last header field (subject or attachments). However, NVDA report a distance before announcing the newly focused object (subject field or attachments list).
Description of how this pull request fixes the issue:
As already done for messages being read, I now check the result of the shift+tab action also in messages in edition. If no caret movement is detected, do not report anything more (indent distance, table cell change).
For this, I have created a
BaseOutlookWordDocumentthat inherits fromNVDAObjects.window.winword.WordDocumentto override thescript_tabto perform this check.Testing performed:
With a message in edition, tested that shift+tab does not report a distance if the focus jumps out of the message body in the following cases:
Tested that Tab and shift+Tab still works in tables to move from cell to cell.
When not in a table (in plain text, checked that tab still repots the indent distance.
Performed this test with UIA for Word disabled and enabled.
