[Accessibility, Narrator, JAWS 16] - left/right arrow moves correctly word by word but JAWS is not reading the words

XMLWordPrintable

      1) Start JAWS 16
      2) Start HelloTextArea
      3) With JAWS 16 Ctrl + left/right arrow moves correctly word by word but JAWS is not reading the words. It always says "space".

      Note: It's not working right on Narrator 8 either.

      This is from Glen at Freedom Scientific: I think that this is a deficiency in your UIA ITextRangeProvider interface. Specifically you’re not properly responding to the ExpandToEnclosingUnit method for word ranges. At least, that’s what I suspect is going wrong. We support enough UIA ITextRangeProviders for me to be fairly sure we’re doing things correctly though not necessarily exactly as Narrator does them.
