Hi.

Hit F5 to bring up the navigator window. You should land in a tree view with items like Headings and Comments in it. You should hear "Comments collapsed" hit right arrow to expand the Comments item, and you should see your comments listed there. Press enter on each Comment to go to that location in the document.


I hope that makes sense.

Hi,


You can navigate between comments using the navigator pane.


It is not the best solution, but it is a good workaround until they fix the bug.

With the latest LibreOffice_25.2.2_Win_x64, and the latest version of NVDA at the time of this writing. I am having the hardest time using comments,
editing comments, and viewing comments after the comments pane is open.
When trying to view comments, navigate the comment pane, reply to
comments, and or anything to do with the comment pane, NVDA stops speaking and I am unable to navigate comments within the pane. I must navigate the document to find comments and even that can be problematic because there is
no immediate indicator of a comment within a document.
I am a fiction writer and publishers make heavy use of track changes and
comments.
Could a Windows screen reader user direct me to some resources on
utilizing LibreOffice Writer Comments with a screen reader? Preferably NVDA.
