Thanks for the tip Jene.
Any other keyboard shortcuts you can teach this old dog to learn a new trick from?
Many thanks once again.

Manually enter forms mode with NVDA key space.

Subject: [nvda] Asking a few NVDA questions.
 
Hello to my fellow NVDA users.
I'm playing my online rpg truck driving game using NVDA and have a few
questions.
For using a forms mode.
I noticed that you have to tap and shift tap to get forms mode to kick in
and press the esc key to get out of forms mode.
Is there a way to have forms mode kick in and out automatically, and simply
just smack the enter key and or spacebar to
1. activate a action?
2. As well the enter key and or spacebar would allow you back out of the
forms mode for filling out a field.
For example, in this example, I'm talking about the truck driving RPG game.
Now while within the truck driving setting my speed that I want to drive at
I have to use forms mode to enter into this feature.
So is there a way so that you don't have to constantly tab and back tab to
go into forms mode, and to constantly have to press the esc key to get out
of forms mode once again?
Similar to the way forms mode works like in JAWS?
I also noticed for two punctuations.
The Apostrophe comes out as the word tick.
So, if you use the Apostrophe like in a word like I am, it comes out as I
tick m instead of the contracted word, im.
Also the period is reading as dot.
The period comes out as dot instead of period or no punctuation at all.
I have the punctuation set to some.
Should I set it to none?
The comma reads correctly though.
Havn't tried other punctuations with NVDA just yet.

Also, why is it that I'm seeing in and out of tables and so many rows and
columns?
Is there a way to remove all of this extra information so that you only see
what you need or want to see, without all of the info on the tables and
columns and rows?
If we could, I think it would make reading the screen more effectively and
or better.

Many thanks to all who tried to help me learn how to use NVDA as a second
screen reader.
Very Thankfully Yours,
Ron, who needs to practice some more learning to use NVDA before I have to
use it with my flying simulatior and the programs that that are added onto
the flight sim so that a blind and or visually impared or BVI pilot may be
able to fly.
