This add-on adds extra functionality when working with Microsoft Word:
- a script ("windows+alt+f5") to display a dialog box to choose between most of objects 's type to be listed (like comments, revisions, bookmarks, fields, endnotes, footnotes, spelling errors, grammar errors,...),
- a script ("Alt+delete"") to announce line, column and page of cursor position, or start and end of selection, or current table's cell,
- a script ("windows+alt+f2") to insert a comment,
- a script ("windows+alt+m") to report revision at cursor's position,
- a script ("windows+alt+n") to report endNote or footNote at cursor's position,
- modify the NVDA scripts "control+downArrow" and "Control+Uparrow" (which moves the carret paragraph by paragraph) to skip the empty paragraph (optionnal),
- some scripts to move in table and read table 's elements (row, column, cell),
- adds specific Word browse mode command keys,
- possibility to move sentence by sentence ("alt+ downArrow" and "alt+upArrow"),
- a script to report document 's informations(windows+alt+f1"),
- accessibility enhancement for spelling checker (Word 2013 and 2016):
- a script (NVDA+shift+f7") to report spelling or grammatical error and suggested correction by the spelling checker,
- a script (NVDA+control+f7") to report current sentence under focus.
- automatic reading of comments and footnotes (nvda 2019.3 and above).
This module has been tested with Microsoft Word 2019, 2016 and 2013 (perhaps works also with Word 365).
