Hi,


I installed Jarte 6.1 with no issues.


I've had some update-and-install issues with skype, but it has
disappeared with the latest version.

Hello everyone

I am still very new to NVDA but so far I have loved it. I have been looking at writing a plugin for NVDA that would enhance web browser navigation capabilities. I want to have the plugin be capable of navigating to other HTML tags other than the default ones that are supported (such as links, headings, landmarks, ect). For instance, the plugin would be capable of navigating to the next <section> or <hr> tag. I guess I should first ask if this is even possible? I've gone over a lot of the documentation for writing plugins as well as several of the .py files found on Github (especially the browseMode.py file and virtualBuffers folder). The closes thing I have found would be to add another QuickNav but I feel certain that this would not fully accomplish what I want. Am I on the right track? What do I need to do or learn to make this plugin a reality? Any help would be greatly apprecaited!

Hi list:

I found an add-on on the page called “Jeff’s NVDA Add-on Page” that
allows

NVDA to be used with the SAPI 5 mobile voices, of which there are 2
really

perky ones, Mark in the US English category and Richard in the US Canada

category.

Was this written by NV Access. It says it was, but, it doesn't seem to
be

on the regular NVDA add-ons page, and, if it was written by NV Access, I

would have thought it would be right there.

This would seem to be a useful add-on to be readily available, but,
maybe

it's too bugy or something. Or, maybe I'm looking in the wrong place on
the

main NV Access add-ons pages.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

I have no idea why you and a number of people have this experience while a lot of users don't.  Perhaps sending relevant information from the log to developers might be the best way to proceed.  I don't know enough about getting information from the log nor where to send it to discuss the matter further but someone else probably will provide information.

Yeah, it's the  weirdest thing I've seen! And just to answer your question, Gene, I'm using the standard American English language with country region set to United States. I presume that is what you meant.

Did you read the entire message?  It says that many machines of many different users were tried.  It says that both Windows 7 and Windows 10 were tried.  It says that JAWS was tried and the problem didn't exist.  It is clear that the problem didn't exist before installing 17.2.  The message says:

Ever since updating to NVDA 2017.2, my numpad insert key has completely stopped working as the NVDA modifier.

It might be relevant to verify which version of English the computers are set for and to try running 17.1 again but almost every condition you asked about has been tested for, including running without add ons.

Hi I cannot duplicate this problem in Windows 7 with UK English with either

Suggestions.
 Something to do with maybe Windows 10 if this is in use on all machines
Oddity in then add on or other software running blocking that key
combination from working.
 Only way to prove its nvda is to go back to an old version and report back,

I wonder what language is set on the machine, could it be mapping that key

OK, this makes no sense, and I'm highly surprised that no one has seen it,
given the fact I've reproduced it on about 6 different computers here, and
have also had about 5 of my other friends reproduce it as well.

Ever since updating to NVDA 2017.2, my numpad insert key has completely
stopped working as the NVDA modifier.

I looked in the keyboard preferences and both caps lock and numpad insert
are checked. I've unchecked and re, checked both checkboxes individually as
well as at the same time. I've restarted NVDA, I've rebooted, I've unloaded
all plugins and simply reinstalled from a fresh copy with not a single addon
running, and all default stock settings.

I've tried with both a portable copy, as well as a full installation.

I've converted a portable to a full install, as well as downloaded the setup
file and installed directly with no success.

I even used Revo to remove NVDA so that no traces of any app data were
behind. Then reinstalled. No good.

I've tried this on Windows 7 Home, Windows 7 Pro, Windows 7 Ultimate, all 3
of those, I've tried both with X86 as well as X64.

I've tried with Windows 10 Home, Windows 10 Pro, and even had a friend who's
a college student try with Windows 10 Education. All of those were tested as
well on both X86 and X64. This was reproduced on every single one of those
systems 100% consistently.

Before anyone asks the obvious, yes, num lock was disabled. I'm not that far
gone.

I looked through the diag logs and saw nothing that indicated what the
problem was.

I checked for an NVDA update and found nothing.

I installed the snapshot next branch and had the same problem.

I tested with JAWS to be sure it wasn't something screwy in general going on
with my insert key, but in JFW, it works flawlessly, plus the fact it's
happenning on more than one system...

I even was so desperet, I tried with XP Pro, and that even was reproducible.

What gives!

Chris.

They are, but... there are other things, accessibility not withstanding that're making me reconsider some things. That's kind of off topic though, so I'll let it rest.

Hi,

 

I bet you have got one of the inserts unchecked in the config file.  I can’t reproduce it here on three machines.

 

All the best

Steve

I'm aware of the difference in the 6pack extended insert key, and the numpad insert key, and yes, I am absolutely 100% sure.

 

I'd call you all's tech support line, but I can't afford support right now; don't have the money. This is driving me however to absolute drinking, which with the stress lately I've been under in general, is the last thing I need to do!

Very odd, and you've definitely got "Use numpad insert as an NVDA modifier key" checked?  (There are two insert options - the other is "use extended insert as an NVDA modifier key" - that's the insert in the group of six keys with insert, delete, home, end, page up and page down).

If num lock is on, yes, the 0 types perfectly, nope, all different type PC's, some desktop, some laptop. Anything from HP, to Lonovo, Dell, a few Acers, maybe one or two Asuses, etc. Someone said plug a wireless keyboard in, and it'll work. Not the case. Tried that, and it didn't help.

If numlock is on, does the key type a 0?  If it was one keyboard on one computer, I'd suspect the key might have gone, but you say it's happening on multiple computers?  Are they all the same type of computer and same type of keyboard?

Absolutely nothing. It works fine though if I use caps lock.

Interesting, I haven't seen that.  If you press NVDA+1 to go into input help mode, what does NVDA report when you then press the numpad insert key?

OK, this makes no sense, and I'm highly surprised that no one has seen it, given the fact I've reproduced it on about 6 different computers here, and have also had about 5 of my other friends reproduce it as well.

 

Ever since updating to NVDA 2017.2, my numpad insert key has completely stopped working as the NVDA modifier.

 

I looked in the keyboard preferences and both caps lock and numpad insert are checked. I've unchecked and re, checked both checkboxes individually as well as at the same time. I've restarted NVDA, I've rebooted, I've unloaded all plugins and simply reinstalled from a fresh copy with not a single addon running, and all default stock settings.

 

I've tried with both a portable copy, as well as a full installation.

 

I've converted a portable to a full install, as well as downloaded the setup file and installed directly with no success.

 

I even used Revo to remove NVDA so that no traces of any app data were behind. Then reinstalled. No good.

 

I've tried this on Windows 7 Home, Windows 7 Pro, Windows 7 Ultimate, all 3 of those, I've tried both with X86 as well as X64.

 

I've tried with Windows 10 Home, Windows 10 Pro, and even had a friend who's a college student try with Windows 10 Education. All of those were tested as well on both X86 and X64. This was reproduced on every single one of those systems 100% consistently.

 

Before anyone asks the obvious, yes, num lock was disabled. I'm not that far gone.

 

I looked through the diag logs and saw nothing that indicated what the problem was.

 

I checked for an NVDA update and found nothing.

 

I installed the snapshot next branch and had the same problem.

 

I tested with JAWS to be sure it wasn't something screwy in general going on with my insert key, but in JFW, it works flawlessly, plus the fact it's happenning on more than one system...

 

I even was so desperet, I tried with XP Pro, and that even was reproducible.

 

What gives!

 

Chris.
