NVDA Continuously Reading Progress Bar #11

Closed tbreitenfeldt closed 3 years ago

Hi,

An issue that I just started noticing recently when I downloaded the updated version of the Spring Tool Sweet version of Eclipse was that it seems that NVDA is continuously speaking a progress bar for some reason. It just very quickly jumps from 1% to 100% speaking each number quickly, and then starts over.

Perhaps someone else has seen this behavior before. I am using NVDA version 2020.4 and eclipse version 4.11.0.RELEASE. I am able to toggle the progress updates mode off for NVDA to get NVDA to stop, although this is not ideal. It seems that if I use eclipse long enough, and open menues which stops the progress bar anouncement temporarily, NVDA will stop reading the progress bar. Although sometimes if I perform an action that triggers the progress bar again such as deleting a file or something, it will resume the repetitive progress bar update.

This for some strange reason was not happening to me with the older version of eclipse, and at work I am using both an older version of eclipse and NVDA, and have no problems.

I am finding it very challenging to replicate though. I cannot get it to do this on command. I am wondering if the issue is simply that there was a maven process downloading occurring in the background or something. I will keep this updated if I discover anything else on this.
