Hi
No you do not have to listen to all of it first as long
as when you open the about section it starts to read
press the ctrl key.
Check which keyboard layout you are using press the
nvda key + ctrl key + the letter K.
It will open the keyboard settings it should land on
your keyboard layout.
Mine speaks desktop so then you just close it
If you already know the keyboard layout miss the above
step.
Make sure you are in object navigation mode first use
the nvda key + number 1 on the numeric keypad to do this
I am not sure what it is for the laptop version I would
have to look it up I think it is the same.
So if you are hopefully still on the about button in my
case I would use the nvda key + 8 on the numeric keypad
to go up a level or the laptop command if in that
layout.
.
Then I would use the number 7 on the numeric keypad to
get me to the top of the document or in this case the
about section.
The rest of the numbers used as mentioned before is how
you read it the text review commands is for read only
sections like this.

Thank you for the explanation.
Unfortunately, it didn't work for me. I am using a
laptop but I have a keyboard connected to it. Do I
have to listen to all of the information play through
before I can do it?
Hi
The easiest way if it is on the about button
is when you open it in my case I use object
navigation.
It will read out the information and you can
not interact with it so I do the following
I am using a desk top after it has read out
the information I use object navigation in
this case it is the nvda key+ number 8 on the
numeric keypad. It takes me up a level to
where the information is.
Then I can use the number 7 on the numeric
keypad to take me up to the top line which is
previous line to I get to top.
I can use the number 9 on the numeric key pad
to read down a line
4 will do previous word and 6 next word.
1 is previous character and 3 is next
character.
8 is current line, 5 is the word you are on
and 2 is the character you are on.
Depending how you read it I might read the
whole lot then do it word by word say for
example.
You might have to look up the command to go
up a level in object navigation if using a lap
top.
hope it helps.

Hello everyone, when I
go into the NVDA menu, and click on manage
add-ons, and I go to about add-on, it reads
all the information all at once. Does anyone
know of a way to slow this down? Reading it by
words, lines, and characters doesn't work. I
only need a little bit of information, and
that's at the end of all of the information
that it gives me.--
Please be
blessed and be safe. Thank you,
Lexi
