1956513 - When adding an already saved signature on pdf document its name is not read by the NVDA tool.

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox :: PDF Viewer, defect, P1)

Description

[Monica Chiorean]

Found in

• version: 137.0b9

Affected versions

• version: 138.0a1

Tested platforms

• Affected platforms: Windows
• Unaffected platforms:

Steps to reproduce

1. Turn on NVDA
2. Using the TAB key, move focus to the 'Add signature' button under the URL bar. Press ENTER
3. Using the TAB key, move focus to a signature button in the doorhanger. Press ENTER
4. The selected signature will appear over the PDF. Observe NVDA output.
5. Hover on a signature already added on the pdf file. Observe NVDA output.

Expected result

• One thing I would note, right after creating a signature and placing focus on the 'signature editor', NVDA will read 'Signature editor [signature name]' (I made 'nat' for a signature and NVDA says : Signature editor nat). If I click away or am adding an already saved signature, the signature editor only seems to say 'Signature editor'. Would it be possible to add the signature name in this case as well? This was screen reader users know which signature is in the signature editor when they place focus?

Actual result

• When hovering the signature on the pdf its name is not read by NVDA.

Regression range
*Not a regression as the feature was recently introduced.
