When you are in screen review mode, you can move around the
screen and not change your place where you are working, for
example, in a word processor, you can move around and not change
the position of the cursor where you are working. Also, if you
are somewhere where you can't move around using Windows commands
such as up and down arrow, you can look at what is on the screen
in review mode. If an error message ccomes up, you can move
around it using screen review.
Don't forget to always return to object navigation mode as soon ase
you are finished working in review mode. If you don't, you may get
unexpected results.

Actually tha'ts not quite true. I use
screen review on a lot of newer programs and
activate things with the mouse. I use screen review
to read the screen, route and click. I never if I
can help it use object review.
Take care

Hi,
Ah, I see.
What you are describing is called
“focus mode” where whatever key you press
will be dealt not by NVDA but by the web
application you are using. For example,
pressing K while playing a YouTube video
will pause the video if focus mode is on,
whereas NVDA will move you to the next link
if browse mode is active.
Screen review, on the other hand, will
let you review the contents of an app’s
window. For example, under older programs,
activating screen review mode will let you
see the contents of the app that aren’t
accessible with keyboard commands. These
days screen review would not work properly
in newer apps but you can find out the
contents of a window by doing an OCR
(NVDA+R).
Cheers,
Joseph
Well, I thought that screen review mode
meant that a page allowed you to activate
certain shortcuts that a page had.
For example, on YouTube you can press “K”
for it to pause and play.
Hi,
Can you tell us what you know about
screen review? That way we can help
you fill in the gap.
Cheers,
Joseph
Hello guys,
I think I am overthinking NVDA’s
Screen Review Mode. Can someone
explain it to me? Or point me to
where I can learn more about it.
