[Platform/TalkBack] Text Editing UX Improvements #176

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
i can't work with bigger texts very vell.
I vould like to have functions for selecting and deselecting bloks of texts, 
deleting words, lines etc etc.
i vould like to have also better support for multiline edit areas such as these 
in sms, reading these also by lines etc.
It vould be better for editing texts with BT keyboard, especially at tablets.

We're aware that there are some platform limitations around text editing.  
We're working to improve the experience.

This is, imho, one of the weakest area in Android a11y at this point.

One change which would simplify the editing workflow immensely would be to 
prevent the accessibility focus from leaving an edit field when entering text 
using the on-screen keyboard. This would, among other things, make it much 
simpler to backtrack and correct a typo in a word, a trivial task which can be 
highly frustrating at the moment. This, along with the ability to navigate by 
sentence (along with the other levels) would already be a great leap forward.

Bug pertaining to this issue:
(Observed on 4.1.1/TalkBack 3.3.2)
When entering editing mode by double-tapping the desired field it is not 
possible to begin navigating by the selected element right away. (I.e swiping 
left or right takes one to the previous or next UI element.) It is necessary to 
change reading element specifically before the expected behaviour takes place.

I am not sure if this belongs to this issue however I must say that we would 
also like to be able to copy, cut and paste the text after selecting it.
