Word 2010
winwordTextInproc-4800

Within Docs;
have a lengthy document with a variety of spelling mistakes, some with or without suggestions;
F7 for spell check;
Ignore or accept correction.

Expected: NVDA to always read context, spell mistake, and read suggestion/spell
Actual: Sometimes NVDA will be absolutely silent.

Regression: No

The spell checker (_WwN) window raises an IAccessible object_focus event (as seen in AccEvent.exe) every time the context changes (e.g. when the user presses alt+i or alt+c and the next spelling error is displayed).
However, NVDA seems to ignore this IAccessible event -- I guess because the same window was in focus before this IAccessible object_focus event was raised.
Is there some way I can have NVDA not ignore the focus events even if those are for the currently focussed window?

Ug. That's an ugly implementation. You can try overriding isDuplicateIAccessibleEvent.

Overriding the IsDuplicateIAccessibleEvent and returning false fixed the problem. I tested this with office 2010 and 2007 and it works in both.
The fix is available at:
https://manish_agrawal@bitbucket.org/manish_agrawal/nvda.git
branch: t1938

The results in a document with lots of bolded text are much better with the fix for #3431 also included.

Replying to manish:
Have created a new branch that is created from master instead of next as was the case for the branch I submitted earlier.
The new branch is in_t1938
