1. you tried to sign in when you were in another country and tried to do it in another one. I did this while trying to help my mum and triggered security and had to change my password. 2. you get an attempted hack or email harvest, if you have you will be asked to go to the site and get a log and will have to change your password. 3. gmail or google is offline for a moment or overloaded. 4. something else has gone wrong.

Re: NVDA Plugin Development - Get text highlighted with mouse
Gene
Are you saying the only thing you want NVDA to do
is read highlighted text and not perform any other functions of a
screen-reader? Never speak at other times, never use browse mode on a web
page, etc? This sounds to me to go far beyond a simple plugin. There
may be other programs that do what you want that aren't screen-readers.
Evidently, this person is sighted. That appears to be the case from the
implications of what you wrote, but it wasn't specified.

Subject: [nvda] NVDA Plugin Development - Get text highlighted with
mouse I'm not sure if this the correct forum, but I can attempting to get some more details on how to get the currently highlighted text so that it can be announced. If this is the wrong, forum, please can you advise on the forums that NVDA developers look at to get this type of question answered. Basically, I am attempting to create a simple plugin for NVDA, where NVDA is running quietly in the background, but when a specific key-sequence (say NDA+shift+A is pressed) will trigger NVDA to speak the currently highlighted text. I've found out how to switch on and off the speak mode from a plugin, but I cannot find any API documentation on the methods available, and objects returned from the api python module. [Background: I am working with a stroke victim who is having difficulty reading blocks of text. He does not want a full screen reader, he just wants the contents of message bodies read out, and I've spoken to another visually impaired person who would like this type of function.] Other observation: is it likely that I will need to create application specific plugins for different browsers? If so, please can somebody point me to the APIs for Google Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and IE.

Tracking mouse on second monitor
davewp196@...
I'm not sure if this is a configuration issue or a fundamental restriction with NVDA 2016.3, but I find that mouse tracking does not appear to be working when scrolling over a web page (in Google Chrome) when positioned on a secondary monitor. (extended desktop). If I move the Google Chrome window to the main monitor, everything seems to work OK, in that when I move the mouse of the text on a web page it is spoken. [Note: Context menus [right-click mouse] are working OK, it is just that web text is not announced as you move the mouse over the webpage. Thanks Dave

Announcing version 16.12 of ObjPad and Enhanced Touch Gestures
Hi all,
I’m delighted to announce the immediate release of version 16.12 of Object Pad (often shortened to ObjPad) and Enhanced Touch Gestures. The biggest highlight is enhanced ways to navigate the web via browse mode.
Enhanced Touch Gestures (http://addons.nvda-project.org/addons/enhancedTouchGestures.en.html): · Added support for Microsoft Edge, Chrome, PDF’s and other browse mode scenarios (requires NVDA 2016.3 or later installed on a touchscreen computer running Windows 8 and later). · Added lists and landmarks to elements you can navigate via web touch mode.
ObjPad (http://addons.nvda-project.org/addons/objPad.en.html): · Added a fourth mode called “web mode” that allows you to use up or down arrow keys to choose the navigation element and left/right arrows to navigate between elements. · Web mode works in Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Microsoft Word, PDF’s and others where browse mode can be used.
Enjoy. Cheers, Joseph

Re: automatic brows mode
Brian's Mail list account
One thing to be aware of, there hasbeen a bug in the second of these checkboxes in Internet Explorer 11 for about a year, where the effect does not change. Apparently this is going to be difficult to fix andfor now they suggest one uses Firefox or just puts up with the fact you cannot cursor through the focus mode item sometimes with some edit field types.
