Re: [libreoffice-accessibility] Help with Using LibreOffice Writer Comments with the NVDA screen reader.

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.
