“Automatic reporting of column and row headers in tables”. With NVDA 2023.1, we have introduced a feature which partly helps with this. One drawback currently, is that Microsoft haven’t yet enabled headers as NVDA uses them. User Interface Automation, or UIA provides performance and other benefits in Excel.

At the time, we had recently introduced the ability to detect moving into or out of a table, when using UIA (NVDA 2022.4). Not at all! Let’s go:īack in February, we talked about Tables in Excel.

This release also drops support for Adobe Flash.It’s the third In-Process since NVDA 2023.1 came out, so we’re all out of new things from that version to talk about, right? ….This release breaks compatibility with existing add-ons.There are updates to Unicode CLDR, mathematical symbols, and LibLouis.Īs well as many bug fixes and improvements, including in Office, Visual Studio, and several languages. There are fixes for several languages, and for accessing links in Braille. NVDA 2021.1 includes optional experimental support for UIA in Excel and Chromium browsers. Fix for previously supported Seika braille displays, adds support for the Seika Notetaker braille display from Nippon Telesoft.Updated Unicode Common Locale Data Repository (CLDR) to 39.0.Espeak has been reverted to an older version to resolve issues with corruption after speaking certain characters.
