            Bug ID: 124832
           Summary: NVDA does not read the (original) cell range of a
                    merged cell
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.1.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

OS: Windows 6.1.7601 service pack 1
LibreOffice: 6.1.2.1
NVDA: 2019.1

The user merged cell A1-A3.  When NVDA read the spreadsheet it read A1 only,
instead of read A1-A3.

The user tried to report the issue to NVDA developers:

https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues/9310

The developers replied:
LibreOffice Table Cells don't implement IAccessibleTableCell, and therefore
there's no way to get the row and column span. LibreOffice itself also does not
expose the merged state in the accessible name of the cell.
