…thin a contenteditable. Required to report addresses in outlook.com / Modern Outlook To/CC/BCC fields. (#16856) Summary of the issue: In outlook.com or Modern Outlook (Monarch) app, when arrowing through the To/CC/BCC fields, NVDA only reports button graphic for email addresses, and does not report the actual name/ address. This is because NVDA knows it is in a contenteditable / editable text field, and assumes that all the content can be moved through by character, and therefore does not include meta info such as name on ancestor elements. However, in this case, the addresses are actually on-contenteditable buttons within the contenteditable, which means that each button only takes up one character stop, and its content does not contain the name / address. Description of user facing changes NVDA now reports addresses when arrowing through To/CC/BCC fields in outlook.com / the Modern Outlook app. Description of development approach In ia2TextMozilla compound textInfo: conrolFields or objects that are non-contenteditable (don't have the editable state) are within a contenteditable (do have the editable state), have their 'content' key set to the object's name. Which forces NVDA to report the name as the content.
