I just noticed that this feature no longer works in Atom as of one of the last two versions. It now only reads the window's title bar no matter what text I have selected. It was working just fine before. It also works just fine under Chrome itself.\r\n\r\nI'm not sure what caused this to break, but I depend on this feature all the time and can't really do without it. Does anyone have any ideas as to why?\r\n\r\nI'm currently on v0.122 and I know it was working on v0.120 or v0.119. I'm also pretty sure I had enabled the React Editor before I noticed this being a problem, so I don't think that caused it."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/atom/atom/issues/comments/146674790","html_url":"https://github.com/atom/atom/issues/3288#issuecomment-146674790","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/atom/atom/issues/3288","id":146674790,"user":{"login":"theojulienne","id":349190,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/349190?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/theojulienne","html_url":"https://github.com/theojulienne","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/theojulienne/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/theojulienne/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/theojulienne/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/theojulienne/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/theojulienne/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/theojulienne/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/theojulienne/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/theojulienne/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/theojulienne/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":true},"created_at":"2015-10-08T20:20:27Z","updated_at":"2015-10-08T20:20:27Z","body":"Looks like this works in Chome on both 10.10 and 10.11 providing VoiceOver isn't turned on. As soon as it's turned on, it starts reading the whole page content from then on because the accessibility tree persists. Since it happens in Chrome, Atom and Electron it seems like that VoiceOver issue is the same. That was just due to my testing of VoiceOver first.\r\n\r\nOpening a fresh copy with VO disabled, I can reproduce that Chrome speaks selected text and Atom reads the whole page on 10.11 and sometimes fails to read at all, but works fine on 10.10 as far as I can see. This is almost certainly a change in the way 10.11 handles accessibility, and Chrome has probably patched this. I'm going to take a look and see if I can find how they patched it and do something similar."}}
