Subject: [nvda] quick templates for common tasks

hi

I was sitting here thinking of how templates are used in google docs and
microsoft office to quickly make resumes and other such things. And then
I was struck by an idea I want to run by you guys.

Why not make add-on templates for NVDA? Here is how they would work. An
addon template lets non-programmers edit a file to accomplish a specific
task such as renaming reclassing objects in certain applications,
hitting tab to go through objects in an unuseable application and so on.
Lets say you have an inaccessible object you want to make it useable
quickly. you open the object reclass template in notepad its a prepared
.py file with extensive comments. Most of the work is done for you. the
comments may instruct you, however, to get info from the log and paste
it here or paste in this bit of code save your file then rename the .py
file to what application you want it to act on. templates could be made
for global tasks, app specific tasks and so on. Its like a word template
but it would be designed to quickly paste in some python code so the
non-programmer could do some basic things like reclassing and renaming
objects, doing things when objects appear or disappear and so on. What
do you think, good idea or not? oh and then when the person is done
making the template, they could package it into an addon to share with
the community.

some templates may also instruct you to remove comments from certain
lines to do things as well. depends on the template and what task you
want to quickly get done.

Josh

Then you must understand that choices have consequences. Your choice has consequences. You bear responsibility for that choice.

Please stop demanding that software companies continue to support an operating system that its own maker has not supported for 8 plus years now. This is what is known as a completely unreasonable demand and expectation. It is not ever going to be met, nor should it be.

Subject: [nvda] A Question about NVDA Automatic Updates


Hi all,

Out of curiosity, how do the automatic NVDA updates work? I assume it checks the update server and then downloads the new installer and automatically runs it to update NVDA files. Is the installer saved somewhere like the temp folder? Is it deleted automatically once the update is complete? If this is all correct, great! If not, please correct me.

Thanks,

Chris

I didn't have that issue but in my case, if I moved to the network icon, if it was the first time during that session of Windows, something related to the icon would open. I don't remember how I closed it now but if I would pass over the icon by arrowing while moving to something else, unless I was moving abnormally quickly, it would disrupt what I was doing by opening whatever it opened. This never happened while using the systray dialog. also, it was a good while ago, but another icon didn't activate when I used the system tray. I had to use the system tray icon. I don't know what people are experiencing in Windows 10 regarding the system tray when directly accessed as opposed to the system tray menu, but in Windows 7 using the system tray directly simply did not work as well as the system tray icon, ideology aside.

if you have ten, nvda supports internal ocr which is available on

I don't know if this is a similar issue, but two or three times since I've installed NVDA 17.3 I find that NVDA totally shuts up and can't be cajoled back into action other than a hard reset. It happens when I go into system tray menus.

It's usually when I go into Network Settings to re-connect my dropped internet, and as I came out of it there was total silence. It's maybe 1 in 20 times this happens (I have a very flakey internet because I live in a rural part of Wales). Last night when I went to adjust my volume and as I hit enter to open the volume slider all NVDA sound died.

I can CTRL+ALT+Del to go into shutdown options, which speaks with a different voice (presumably using NVDA, but not my regular settings), but if I cancel out to return back to the desktop I'm back to silent mode. I have a shortcut to NVDA on my desktop titled znvda so that it's the only shortcut begining with a z, so I should be able to jump straight to it. I've also tried using Win+R to run NVDA that way, but neither one will re-start NVDA.

To me it feels more like an operating system error, but I've no real basis for thinking that. It only happens once every three or four days max, but I'm going to turn logging on so that if / when it happens again I should have some more informative insight.

I have had it where I was going away on a trip and had to do the

sure things went right and I didn't get cut off.

Came back to find that I had been cut off.

Rang the people and they said there was a system crash and my data was
never filed.

So the system sent a message but as I was way below the cut off date
they didn't deem it necessary to do much about it.

The result of that was that I got a few useless messages from a system.

In a more extreme case though we lost all net service for a while
because a cloud datacentre just happened to have a drive failier which
shut down a lot of things.

But the thing is things are changing.

This spying lark well you can adjust the settings but I put it like the
y2k thing.

There are movies about y2k being an apocolipse.

A lot of programs were released to counter y2k, the same goes for
spying, and you can turn a lot of stuff off including cortana and
windows update which is spying as well as a lot of windows things as
long as you pay the programmer and maybe get spyware in your system.

Even if you don't use the net yourself you will encounter it from time
to time from government to well banks.

You can't avoid it just continue as you are.

Even my desktop which I got in 2011 with 8GB of RAM and 3.3GHZ Intel Core
I5 costs less than 30000 Thai baht (might be even less than 25000 Thai
baht).
I still like XP though; it's the first OS that I remember using as a
child. I have a Windows XP virtual machine set up so that I can play with
it whenever I want, without damaging my actual computer.

They are joining Jaws and Openbook...
That is a OCR application feature and not a screen reader feature.

To have that in NVDA we will need a virtual printer to send the resultant
image to the Windows 10 OCR engine, and hoping that the engine allows
multipage images...

With the OCR function in Jaws 2018 beta you find the file you want to
OCR in file explorer then open the context menu for the file and then
arrow down to recoginize with Jaws and hit enter. You then have a view
that you can read and or copy.
