4 years ago @cary-rowen just wanted to confirm that this does still reproduce in NVDA 2020.3. Thanks!

4 years ago I still seem to be able to reproduce
Steps to reproduce:
Open PowerPoint desktop application Select "blank presentation" Tab to an object on the default slide Press shift+f10 to open a context menu Select "New comment" Type some filler text and press ctrl+enter to submit comment Press F6 until focus lands back on "slide 1" Tab again to the object with a comment
Actual behavior:
NVDA does not announce that the object has a comment
Expected behavior:
NVDA should listen for the AnnotationObject UIA property to report that an object has a comment. This is the new attribute that PowerPoint is leveraging to communicate that objects have comments on them.
