The problem is, what should this array of ways of
input be called? Maybe input commands, which would cover everything.
This is just one more example of the decline of English. Apps and
applications, two different things, are used increasingly interchangeably.
the language in general is becoming less precise and accurate and this is just
one area.

Subject: Re: [nvda] Some mouse navigation
questions Input gestures are more abstractWhich is precisely the problem. Callin something that is intimately familiar to the typical end user, and when it's currently the only method (regardless of keyboard being used), something "more abstract" is not the way to go. The folks at NV Access are far from the only software developers to go this route. Almost every time it's the route taken it makes things more opaque to the target demographic, which is why it should be avoided in the first place. -- Brian - Windows 10 Home, 64-Bit, Version 1809, Build 17763 A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep. ~ Saul Bellow, To Jerusalem and Back
