Slightly OT - tiling windows under windows 10, to allow drag and drop using NVDA, with the mouse cursor
Jacob Kruger
If remember correctly, in things like windows 7 task manager, you could easily enough tell it to tile two windows side by side, etc. to then allow you to use forms of drag and drop from window to window, using a screen reader implementation of the mouse cursor.
However, in windows 10, the new version of the task manager doesn't seem to offer that too easily, so was just wondering if anyone knows of/can think of a relatively simple way to have two windows open, and to get them to line themselves up tiled either horizontally across, or vertically up and down on the screen, to then use the key combo of shift + numpad / to lock left mouse button on selected items, and then move over to target area/element in other window, route mouse cursor to navigator object using NVDA + numpad /, and then use the same keystroke as earlier to finish off the drag and drop operation?

No worries.

AFAIK, it's been built-in since windows 7, but, I've never done anything with it, other than ask cortana for jokes on windows 10...<smile> If you look at the dictation bridge web-page, they're hoping to offer it as a much more usable element of the operating system, along with things like the NVDA add-on that Pranav was referring to.

Yes... Sorry... I noticed later that I'd replied to the wrong message - o rather, with the wrong topic... Is Windows Voice Recognition integrated into Windows10? My son disabled a lot of apps for me when I received Win10, so I'm not aware of it. Thanks, sorry again for the wrong reply. Ciao, Ollie

The subject line, and voice recognition have to do with dictation bridge, and the NVDA add-on, not webvisum in firefox? Stay well Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype: BlindZA "Resistance is futile, acceptance is versatile"

Re: problem with thunderbird
Gene
For some reason, screen-readers may see this as a
window that requires browse mode. When I tried Thunderbird a few years
ago, I believe I turned off browse mode before writing or editing.
Evidently, this isn't always necessary and someone gave another work
around. If it's reliable, it wouldn't matter to any extent which is
used.

I don't remember now whether there is a way to request password resetting on their site. When I first installed Webvisum, one had to have an invitation. If you need one, Contact me off-list, and I'll send one to you. Ciao, Ollie

Somebody signed it through the convoluted process of doing that for Mozilla and it now works.

I've downloaded the add-on, but I don't have either dictation programme at the moment, so I can't try it out. I've contributed to the crowdfunding campaign though. I believe in this sort of projects, that can make life easier for blind and visually impaired people. Ciao, Ollie
