I’m using the latest version of LibreOffice, 26.2.1.2, and NVDA2025.3.3. I want to modify some settings in Writer’s AutoCorrectOptions dialog in the Options section. This can be found in Tools >AutoCorrect > AutoCorrect Options, and by moving to the Options item inthe list view. After doing this, pressing Tab doesn’t reveal anythingexcept Help, Reset, OK and Cancel.

I just tested it here under Linux with Orca, and I can use the tab keyto move focus to the list of options in that dialogue, then up/down tomove through the options individually. Maybe it's a Windows orNVDA-specific issue.

[libreoffice-accessibility] Problems Accessing AutoCorrect Options Dialog in Writer · Kelly Sapergia
- [libreoffice-accessibility] I am having the same issue. What I eventually had to do was tab away from the table, then shift tab back to it a few times. It does have some verbiage, but eventually NVDA will land in the 2 edit boxes, and the list, which can be navigated with the up and down arrow keys. That options dialog also seems to crash a *lot* with NVDA running. · Robert Kingett
