Details
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/113.0
Steps to reproduce:
When I go to the Google BARD web site:
When I enter a prompt like:
do you understand how to do mermaid diagrams?
Initially discovered using Firefox Nightly
Then while reporting this issue
I did the same with Firefox stable
Unfortunately, the results were the same...
Actual results:
When the prompt response is presented
It is more than what will fit in my full size window
The presented content is accessible to the mouse cursor
However, the remainder of the content is beyond the window
When I scroll down to the remainder of the content
It is not accessible to the mouse cursor
The content under the cursor is not the content that is spoken by nVDA
Some other lines from the content is spoken instead
Expected results:
After scrolling down to the remaining content
The mouse cursor should make NVDA speak the content under the cursor

4RJames, is this still broken for you with the very latest Firefox Nightly?
It was this morning and I was confused...
However, this afternoon Firefox Nightly updated and it seems much better! :-)
113.0a1 (2023-03-30) (64-bit)
Thank you for all your hard work!

Yeah, it can take a few hours from when a bug is closed to when the next Nightly is made available with the change. I verified the change was in place before commenting here to try to avoid that confusion.
Thanks for all your assistance.
I don't know what changed but this is no longer working
Still works correctly with the initial response
However, when you have to scroll down in the response
The text under teh mouse cursor is not what is spoken by NVDA

I don't think this should be closed as the problem still exists when the text is scrolled...
It should also be noted that there are additional elements in this interface that are not accessible to NVDA when using the mouse
Like the buttons below the response...
still having problems with this interface using:
115.0a1 (2023-05-16) (64-bit)
There are also changes from Google with this Bard user interface.
