Description Michael Whapples 2010-06-27 20:29:53 UTC
When moving between cells in a table in openoffice writer orca always places the Braille cursor at the beginning of the table cell regardless of actual position.

Steps to reproduce (this is a minimal case, holds for larger tables):
1. Start a new document in openoffice writer.
2. Go to insert menu and choose table.
3. configure the table to have 1 column and 2 rows (as I said these figures can be larger if you like and the bug will still show).
4. In cell A1 insert the word "Hello" and in cell A2 insert the word "World".
5. within cell A2 move cursor to be on the r. Now press up cursor.

Expected: Braille will show the cursor on the second l of "Hello".
Actual: Orca shows the Braille cursor at the beginning of the cell on the H.

You can confirm that the cursor is not where orca reports it by pressing left or right cursor keys.
