Hi Kavein,
Firstly thank you for your interest in helping out!
NVDA uses Braille tables from Liblouis: http://liblouis.org/
Information on creating new tables is available from: http://liblouis.org/documentation/liblouis.html
While NVDA isn't always on the latest build of Liblous, we are endeavouring to keep it more up to date than it has been previously.
Knowing we have users with an interest in a particular language, as and when you get Malay added and in a new LibLouis version, let me know (either on here or write to info@...) and I'll make a special effort to get us on the same version as soon as possible for you.
Kind regards

Re: blackboard
erik burggraaf <erik@...>
I am just starting school at a college that uses Blackboard. So far, I haven't run into any issues with nvda logging in or accessing content. I do remember the issues with entering texting form fields and submitting assignments from a couple of years ago when I helped my ex-girlfriend with her classes. I don't know whether those issues are still a thing, but I will run into them eventually and let the list know. The key accessibility issue in Blackboard for me is that they don't do anything to validate the content uploaded by professors. The framework may be peachy keen, but it allows professors to upload garbage such as images of text and screenshots of Code. Without good training, the whole thing Falls over. Another issue completely
unrelated to nvda, is the fact that Blackboard has a history of being not
mobile friendly at all. The Blackboard Mobile apps have their own niggling
accessibility issues, but also the functionality of the mobile apps with
severely reduced. I've used D2L for my High School courses. And I don't know that it's better than Blackboard. It isn't terrible either, but I really think these content management Creator is have a lot to answer for yet. On September 14, 2017 1:42:07 AM "Arlene" <nedster66@...> wrote:

Re: Accessible antivirus programs

Hi,
Minor correction, you said:-
Sonos is another anti-virus which has been recommended by some of our users:

I must admit, on Windows 10, I also use the built in Defender from Microsoft. This question does come up regularly though, so here are my notes from the last round of conversations on this earlier this year:
There are several anti-virus programs which are accessible with NVDA and some which are partly accessible:
Windows Defender comes with Windows 10 from Microsoft and is accessible.
One user, David Goldfield, has written a comprehensive review of Kaspersky Anti-Virus: https://davidgoldfield.wordpress.com/2016/11/16/kaspersky-antivirus-a-review-for-screen-reader-users/
Another user, Gene, has put together a whole site of information and suggestions, including for anti-virus: http://accessibilitycentral.net/nvda_road_tested_programs.html
Sonos is another anti-virus which has been recommended by some of our users: https://www.sophos.com/lp/sophos-home.aspx
If anyone checks those and finds the information out of date, or has others to add, please do chime in!
Kind regards
Quentin.

At the time most things worked but assignment submition didn't always work and a few form related things just didn't work. However I know blackboard themselves have an accessibility team or someone that moniters them does as once someone appeared on the local list I was on for the blind stating as such. So chances are there are people watching who knows.

Re: Focus changes that NVDA doesn't seem to notice

Hello! It just happened for me in Win 7 when starting Chrome. I got no feedback so I pressed NVDA+F1 to log information about the current navigator object, which should be tracking focus. Here is what it says: INFO - globalCommands.GlobalCommands.script_navigatorObject_devInfo (09:43:25.430): Developer info for navigator object: name: None role: ROLE_UNKNOWN states: isFocusable: False hasFocus: False Python object: <NVDAObjects.IAccessible.IAccessible object at 0x051DA850> Python class mro: (<class 'NVDAObjects.IAccessible.IAccessible'>, <class 'NVDAObjects.window.Window'>, <class 'NVDAObjects.NVDAObject'>, <class 'baseObject.ScriptableObject'>, <class 'baseObject.AutoPropertyObject'>, <type 'object'>) description: None location: None value: None appModule: <'appModuleHandler' (appName u'chrome', process ID 4728) at address 51da550> appModule.productName: u'Google Chrome' appModule.productVersion: u'61.0.3163.79' TextInfo: <class 'NVDAObjects.NVDAObjectTextInfo'> windowHandle: 328820 windowClassName: u'Chrome_WidgetWin_1' windowControlID: 0 windowStyle: 382664704 windowThreadID: 4580 windowText: u'Neuer Tab - Google Chrome' displayText: exception: 'NoneType' object is not iterable IAccessibleObject: <POINTER(IAccessible) ptr=0x80f2f88 at 51ba260> IAccessibleChildID: -1 IAccessible event parameters: windowHandle=328820, objectID=-4, childID=-1 IAccessible accName: exception: (-2147024809, 'Falscher Parameter.', (None, None, None, 0, None)) IAccessible accRole: exception: (-2147024809, 'Falscher Parameter.', (None, None, None, 0, None)) IAccessible accState: exception: (-2147024809, 'Falscher Parameter.', (None, None, None, 0, None)) IAccessible accDescription: exception: (-2147024809, 'Falscher Parameter.', (None, None, None, 0, None)) IAccessible accValue: exception: (-2147024809, 'Falscher Parameter.', (None, None, None, 0, None)) So the navigator object, although configured to track focus, is on something which isn't even focusable.
