Steps to reproduce:
using notebook keyboard layout: open chrome if it is not in the document you can press f6 until it is in the document press alt to open the menu bar scroll a few times with the arrow below to focus on a menu item as an example: new tab now try reading character by character with nvda + ctrl + right and left arrows, or try reading line by line with nvda + up or down arrow
Actual behavior:
nvda announces in blank I copied below as I understood that the model asks for the speech viewer snippet from when I pressed alt, down arrow to a menu item and when I tried the commands nvda + up and down arrow, and nvda + ctrl + right and left arrow.
toolbar Chrome Menu Button SubMenu Customize and Control Google Chrome submenu selected menu Use the up and down arrows to move through the pop-up menu options. New Tab Ctrl+T g 1 of 19 Use arrow keys to move between menu items. Top in blank Background in blank Background in blank Top in blank
Expected behavior:
i would like it to be possible to read the name of the option in focus i.e. read the name of the entire line when pressing nvda + arrow like this or below, pressing nvda + right arrow or nvda + left arrow will be able to spell the current item in focus, as well as pressing nvda + ctrl + left or right arrow read the menu item in focus word by word. I tried to do this in word and it worked the way I expected, I opened word, and when I was in a blank document I pressed alt, left arrow to be in the file menu, down arrow to be in a menu item and repeated the commands already informed like this nvda + right and left arrow it was possible to read the focused item character by character. nvda + ctrl + left and right arrows where it was possible to read the item in focus word by word. nvda + arrow like or below where it was possible to read the nenu item in focus. I would like this experience obtained in word also in chrome I've tried naming the speech from the speech viewer below to tell me what I want to hear.
