CrOS Shortcut Viewer a11y: STS unable to read large selections of text

Project Member Reported by leberly@chromium.org, Aug 21

Issue description

70.0.3524.2 (Official Build) canary (64-bit)
Google_Eve.9584.160.0

Steps to repro:
# Enable Select to Speak in settings > Manage Accessibility Settings
# Open Shortcuts using ctrl + alt + /
# Use STS to select a small area in the app such as the first two shortcuts listed (Copy selected content and Focus address bar). Note that it is read as expected.
# Use STS to select 3 or more of the shortcuts or the entire app 
Expected: STS reads contents
Actual: nothing is read


 
Checking again with flag disabled: 

70.0.3524.2 (Official Build) canary (64-bit)
Google_Eve.9584.160.0
#ash-keyboard-shortcut-viewer-app set to 'Disabled' 

Improved in that it can reader larger sections of the app, up to 6 shortcuts. However, if you select the entire contents of the whole app screen, nothing is read. It also reproduces if you select 7 or more shortcuts. Keeping bug open.

Unclear if this is an app-specific problem or not, so leaving the Proj-Mash label.

Sorry wrong bug!
Looks like the hit test in some cases is never calling the Javascript callback, especially if the hit test occurs near the center of the screen where there are fewer elements.

So Select-to-Speak never gets any elements to speak because the hittest is not successful.

The next question is why is the hittest not returning anything?
katie, do you if the hittest is still having problems with about:flags #ash-keyboard-shortcut-viewer-app is disabled? Or just in the enable/default case?

Yes, the hittest is still not calling back consistently even with ash-keyboard-shortcut-viewer-app disabled.

Cannot repro this one.
I can set a larger area > 6 items.
