Hi Chris,
I would love to use Pages, but I am a recent Mac user of 1-1/2 years and I
need Word for my business. Not that I’m opposed to learning a new word
processor, but when one has used a piece of software for many years, I am
more productive and less time is wasted in attempting to figure out some
formatting or use of styles that are not apparent to a new user. I was
trying not to have to install Win 8.1 into BootCamp, but I guess I will have
to bite the bullet. I still wrote to Microsoft. This is a beta, so maybe
they will get it right this time.
Best,
Eileen

Need I say more? Just stick with Pages, if possible.

Hello,
I took a look at this again. I interacted with the Document pane, but
there is no access to the edit text that has been process. VO did not echo
character, word, or both and there I couldn’t get any navigation with VO
to work. I knew that there was words processed because when I tabbed to
the word count it stated 15 words. The unlabeled button to the right of
that activates the spell checker. I have sent MS feedback about the issues
regarding VO accessing the document pane edit field. If others are finding
the same, it takes a village to get someone to look at the problem and
maybe have a chance that it will be fixed. JMO.
Best,
Eileen

You have basically echoed precisely the same thing I already said.
Smile. I kind a wondered that same thing.

Hi,
Maybe I’m misunderstanding things here, but, if you disable the Document
pane, then you are removing the container where the text is being held.
Would that not, therefore, make the text disappear, or, at least,
inaccessible? If one does an Item Chooser, then types some text that you
know is in the body of the document, if it appears to the Item Chooser,
we’re getting somewhere, if not, then the accessibility of the editable
area is non-existent.
Later...

could disable that, then it would be worth it, although, as said in my
first message, I don't understand how that would help. If anything, I'd
think that would make it even worse.

How are you able to get it to work? I cannot get VoiceOver to read the
document area at all.

Outlook is included within that PKG, yes. Beware though, I haven't
actually tested it for accessibility, so I'm sorry to say I cannot be
of much help there at this given time. I hear, however, that it's
supposed to supposedly be fairly doable.

Hello List,
I have installed the beta Microsoft Office 2016 on my MacBook Air
2013. It would be nice to be able to disable the “Document” Pane. I
believe that the edit field is under it and the pane is blocking it
from voiceover. Hence, this makes Word not accessible to us. I was
attempting to send Microsoft some feedback, but when I clicked on the
feedback tab in Word preferences, there was no method to do this. Has
anyone figured out the magic steps to get rid of the “Document” pane
yet? And, does anyone have the contact to send constructive criticism
to Microsoft?
thanks in advance.
Warmest regards,
Eileen
