Re: Am Able to Reproduce Issue with Purchasing Kindle Books

Gene
 

I almost never purchase anything from Amazon but there is a button when you purchase a Kindle version of a book that says somethin like send to my Kindle.  I don't know if this will do what people want.  But those interested can try the button and see what happens.

Subject: [nvda] Am Able to Reproduce Issue with Purchasing Kindle Books

A while back, someone posted here that they were having trouble
purchasing Kindle books on the Amazon site with NVDA. I just tried to
purchase a book, and I couldn't find either the buy with one click
button or the add to cart button. After trying this with both Firefox
and Chrome with similar results, I called their disability hot line. The
representative I talked to was able to add the book to my cart, and I
was able to purchase it that way. I explained to her that others with
visual impairments who use screen reading software are also having
difficulty, and she said she would pass it along. Will just have to see
what happens.

Re: using a command prompt

Bob J
 

Brian,

I don't know the answer to your question about why some words are spelled out instead of pronounced as a word. My synthesizer spells out some words every time they are encountered, no matter the context. Perhaps it is a synthesizer thing.

I frequently incorporate batch files into some personal programming projects to accomplish tasks that would otherwise require me to write more code in the primary programming language.

I'm curious to know if you use batch files in a similar fashion or if you might be doing some things that I should consider for my own purposes.

Bob

One of the most annoying things is that some programs seem to end up having their output spelled rather than spoken as if nvda thinks there are spaces between every character. Does anyone know why this happens sometimes? I do not see it on batch file outputs but often do if running a command line program in a batch situation. Brian

Hi


If you are referring to nvda in the beta version there is no add ons. if
it is the browser it is the same add ons that are used with the alfa and
stable version and it or those versions do not have the problem only the
beta. It is sorta randam but seems if you use the alfa first then turn
it off then start the beta it will happen then at times.

Re: unlabeled graphics on the web

Walker, Michael E
 

Gene, you are very correct that unlabeled graphics are skipped, no matter what navigation keys you choose. It is a serious problem. Suppose I am taking online training at work, and I have to be able to click the unlabeled graphic, and not have NVDA skip it. Suppose I know what the unlabeled graphic is, by text above or below it, and I do not have a sighted person available to click it for me. This comes up in the workplace all the time. How can we submit feedback to the developers on this? Thanks.

If graphics aren't labeled, then, of course, you may have a hard time determining what graphic to click.  But the question, as posed, assumes that.  Can NVDA be made to announce all graphics?  I don't think it does now.  If there is a graphic without any text, I don't think it announces it and there is no setting I know of to adjust the level of graphic announcement.  JAWS has such a setting and you were discussing that in your comparison of NVDA and JAWS.  If I am correct that there is no setting in NVDA for this, this is another way in which NVDA isn't as user definable as JAWS where it should be.  This may be a serious problem on a site where, to take an action a graphic needs to be clicked.  It might mean having to click it with the simulated mouse but to do that, it must be announced as you move through the page so you can move to it and then move the mouse to it. 

 

You may need sighted help to know which graphic to click but as far as I know, NVDA doesn't read unlabeled graphics on web pages and moving character by character doesn't read them either.  As far as I know, they are skipped as though they don't exist.

Thunderbird and the current date?

Roger Stewart
 

I've notice that recently when I start up Thunderbird, it will sometimes give the current date. I never noticed this until the last several days and it it's not consistent.  It didn't do it all this morning but the last 2 times I've started it, it did announce the date including the year. Is this something that is somehow visible or is nvda picking this up in the background and why is it not announce every time?  Just wondering.


Thanks.


Roger
Re: unlabeled graphics on the web

Walker, Michael E
 

Yes, you certainly can do something about unlabeled graphics in JAWS. You can set graphics to show all, and you can also identify graphics by different characteristics like the file name and URL. This should be a feature in NVDA. While I agree with writing to the site's developers, it often doesn't make a difference, if they don't care. In that case, the blind user needs to be able to find a way.

Hi, the new add on updater seems to have fixed the EOF issue. i did previously try deleting the update file for add ons but that made no difference, yet it was odd that before no portable version had the issue, only installed ones, but as I say its working now.

Poor old windows got in a bit of a mess with me switching versions of nvda to update them all though. I had to fiddle abit to get sense out of it, but then I do not think stopping and starting different nvda versions in quick succession was actually a use case considered!

Also in Notepad and other text editors I have tried and also not in the message composition window of Outlook 2013. If I bring up Narrator, I can use it to select emoji from the panel.

It used to work for me in NVDA, but I can't pinpoint at which point it stopped working.

I used to be able to access emoji in the emoji panel you get by pressing Windows key plus period or Windows key plus semicolon, but for some reason NVDA does not read the emoji in that panel or the category names anymore. Narrator reads them perfectly, so I know they are there and I can use Narrator to insert emoji in my text.


Does anyone have any idea what could be causing NVDA to just say "blank"
when I navigate around the emoji panel? Is there some setting that could be upsetting NVDA?


I am using NVDA version 2018.3 Beta 2 on a 32 bit Windows 10 machine

*Subject:* [nvda] Thunderbird columns with object navigation

Hi group,
I came across this post about changing the order of mail message
columns in
Thunderbird.
https://nvda.groups.io/g/nvda/topic/colum_headers_in_thunderbird/3281531?p=,


,,20,0,0,0::recentpostdate%2Fsticky,0,,20,0,780,3281531
Unfortunately I can't find the column headers anywhere on Thunderbird
60.0
using object navigation. I can move around the message list and
folder list
and I've been able to drag and drop folders around using the same
method.

Has anyone had any luck with accessing the message column headers with
recent Thunderbird versions please?

Very many thanks,
David

So not even the sighted get it? That is odd. Very long ago when the BBC started adding such messages a similar issue occurred on their I player, where you could not play anything until you realised there was an invisible message to be found and all sorts of messing about had to be applied to get it to be seen. I think they have fixed it now, but at the start all sorts of problems occurred. Maybe its the office newbie who was given the job of adding it!

I did find one the other day that basically said, accept or push off we do not conform to gdpR. Not quite so blunt but almost.

I suspect something tied to the cookie notification myself, as these are, in the grand scheme of things, a relatively recent development. Whether the screen reader is on or off, I am not being presented with this notification when the page initially loads, and that's across machines.

I am thinking that maybe the B and O audio might be playing a part in my issue I am thinking it may have some enhanced sound settings. No such Enhanced setting in my Realtech audio settings.

Hi,

 

My teammate insists that I use SQL Developer, when he works with me. Who has had luck getting it to work well enough to see the visual layout of the database tables and schemas, using NVDA? For example, if you need to see where a stored procedure is in the database, how well does that work with NVDA?

 

Thanks,

Mike

Hello again

I have version 1803 build 17134.228, but I noticed this behaviour with build 17134.165 already, but hoped it would go away or be fixed by 228.
Even a restart or a shutdown and start-up does not fix it. This is flabbergasting.

Kind regards

Christo

Hi,
I see. If you have build 17134 (Version 1803 stable), it may have to do with NVDA missing some UIA events, as I can't reproduce this on latest Windows Insider build. Try logging out and back in.
Cheers,
Joseph

Hi Joseph

I cannot get NVDA to read the emoji panel in any application which allows text input. For example, I am writing this in Thunderbird and I cannot select emoji while typing this message. Also in Notepad and other text editors I have tried and also not in the message composition window of Outlook 2013. If I bring up Narrator, I can use it to select emoji from the panel.

It used to work for me in NVDA, but I can't pinpoint at which point it stopped working.

Kind regards

Christo

Hi,
Under which circumstances does NVDA not read this panel - perhaps using nOtepad, browsing the web, wetc.?

Subject: [nvda] NVDA not reading emoji in emoji panel

Hello all


I used to be able to access emoji in the emoji panel you get by pressing Windows key plus period or Windows key plus semicolon, but for some reason NVDA does not read the emoji in that panel or the category names anymore. Narrator reads them perfectly, so I know they are there and I can use Narrator to insert emoji in my text.


Does anyone have any idea what could be causing NVDA to just say "blank"
when I navigate around the emoji panel? Is there some setting that could be upsetting NVDA?


I am using NVDA version 2018.3 Beta 2 on a 32 bit Windows 10 machine
with the latest Windows update. I have the latest version of Windows
10 App Essentials add-on installed and active.


I would appreciate your suggestions.


Kind regards

One new add-on, one updated add-on: Input Lock 1.4 (new), Add-on Updater (proof of concept updated) #addonrelease

Joseph Lee
 

Hi all,

 

Please join me in welcoming one new add-on and one updated add-on to the stage:

 

  • Input Lock (new by Jose Manuel Delicado): lock keyboards, mouse and touchscreens from accidental input. Add-ons website entry: https://addons.nvda-project.org/addons/inputLock.en.html
  • Add-on Updater (proof of concept updated): August 16th snapshot attempts at detecting end of file error as reported by some users, also adds Input Lock to list of add-ons eligible for update checks. Also, for those using latest NVDA alpha snapshots, this add-on will try to use checkable list box control that ships with NVDA.

 

Cheers,

Joseph

Howard,

           I'm not quite clear regarding what you mean by, "where you are reading."

           If NVDA has focus on a segment of text, and is reading it, and you stop the reading you should be able to use the NVDA command for Move mouse to current navigator object to accomplish what you say if I'm understanding you correctly.    That's NVDA+numpadDivide for desktop keyboard layout and NVDA+shift+m for laptop keyboard layout.

           Caret browsing is another option that might prove easier.
