Re: NVDA and Google Chrome
Well I have had updates and things seem fine, however google settings do have some sort of accessibility features button to install extra accesibility modules.

Re: How to make input gestures application-specific?
Hi,

In this case, the most important question: did the add-on author expose this command in input gestures dialog? If so, then yes, you can change it there. Cheers, Joseph

Re: NVDA and Google Chrome

I am running an out of date version on my XP
machines. I almost never go online with my Windows 7 machine and I haven't
updated the program for quite some time. I don't use Chrome to any extent,
which is one reason I'm not concerned myself if it is current.
Having explained that, I'll say that I suspect that
you are having an unexpected problem and behavior that is not generally
experienced. Chrome has become increasingly popular with blind users and
if this were a general problem, I expect I would have seen it discussed on at
least one of the three e-mail lists I follow where such a thing would be
expected to be discussed unless there has been a very new update of
Chrome.
If there isn't any response, out of curiosity, I
may put my Windows 7 machine online and let it update but there will probably be
a good deal of comment from others.

NVDA and Google Chrome
Don H
Using latest NVDA and Google Chrome on a Win 10 system.
While reviewing a web page with the arrow keys I will come to a line that simply says clickable and nothing else. On other lines it may say clickable several times before giving the link info. I know this probably a issue of poor web design but is there a setting for NVDA to make it work better? Thanks

Then, how can I isolate an input gesture to just be used in one application without going into making an add-on?

Re: NVDA and Google Chrome

I just played a bit with the tool bar. It
appears that you can see folders if you have book marks organized in that way,
but you can't use first letter navigation. This is a major limitation and
the tool bar would probably be unsuitable for people to use who have more than a
very small number of book marks.
