Description Joanmarie Diggs (IRC: joanie) 2009-08-17 20:48:50 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:

1. Launch Writer.
2. Type "This is a test."
3. Press Return.
4. Type "So is this."
5. Press Control Home
6. Press Control Right to move word by word

Expected results: When crossing into the second paragraph, Orca would say "So".

Actual results: When crossing into the second paragraph, Orca says "S".

Solves the problem and doesn't break things for selection. Needs a regression test and to be regression tested.

revision 1 with updated regression test

Using git master, I created a new oowriter regression test for navigation and selection by next and previous word including crossing paragraph objects. That gives us the current state of affairs against which we can test. That new test has been committed to master.

When I ran that test using the patch I'd attached to this bug, there was only one change: Namely, we stopped speaking the character and started speaking the word (as expected) when a paragraph boundary was crossed. This patch updates that test to reflect the new behavior.

I just finished running the OOo Writer and gtk-demo tests. No regressions from this patch. Will please review. Thanks!
