Engraving bug (incorrect score rendering)
Bug description
When typing text into an editable text frame the user has to put in line breaks manually as there is no automatic word wrapping. This means a blind user has no feedback when they come to the end of a line and will not have any way to know where to add a line break meaning their text is likely to end up off the printable and visible area.
It would be ideal if the text wrapped automatically, but a short term fix could be to give a screen reader an audible alert when they hit the edge of the frame or it does not allow further typing till enter is pressed.
Steps to reproduce
- Add a text frame.
- Keep typing and at the end of the line/frame you will see your text dissappears off the page.
