Its a classic case of the way your brain visualises the concepts.
I did notice Jaws can be set to pretend they are normal menus, but my feeling here is that since you can use a simple add on to alter them  ie ribbon remover, then I see no reason why Microsoft do not offer the themselves, but in a recent interview with Jenny at Microsoft she merely said, Embrace the ribbon, which I took to mean  they are dogmatically against it.
Bah humbug I say.

Running latest NVDA and Win 10 1809.

The old addage of teaching a old dog new tricks fits this situation. Having great difficulty in using the ribbon while in file explorer. Are there any tutorials as how to use such ribbons?

Thanks

Hello Sylvie and Ollie:

I am not sure why moving to the next and previous comments shortcut keys do
not work. I am running the latest desktop version of Word in Office 365. One
way to find out the actual shortcut key is by navigating the ribbon. Press
Alt+R. This will place you in the Review tab of the ribbon, where the
commenting feature resides. Now press Ctrl+right arrow until you hear
comments grouping. On my version of Word, I needed to press it 5 times. Once
there, use the Tab key until you hear previous button. NVDA should also tell
you the shortcut key. Pressing Tab one more time should get you to the Next
button where again, NVDA should let you know the shortcut. On my version of
Word, there are 4 buttons in the comments group of the Review tab. The first
is to insert a comment, the second is to delete a comment, the third is to
move to the previous comment and the fourth is to move to the next comment.

Navigating the ribbon is a great way to learn shortcut key combinations for
future reference.

Hello Sylvie and Ollie:

The method described by Sylvie will find more than comments if
present in a document. For example, if track changes was used to
record changes made to a document, the A key while in browse mode
will also move to those as well as comments. Furthermore, when using
the A key in browse mode, it will take you to the place in the
document where the selected text associated with the comment is, but
will not place you in the actual comment for editing, deleting or
replying.

Word has built-in keystrokes for navigating comments in a document
which will work with any screen reader. Alt+N will move to the next
comment while Alt+V will move you to a previous comment. When using
these commands, you are actually placed in the comment and can
perform the keystrokes described by Silvie to respond to or delete a
comment.

Hello again Ollie,
If you enable the browsing mode in word with Nvda+spacebar, you can
jump to one comment/annotation by pressing a.
When you are on the comment you want to see, right click with the
appropriate key or shift+f10 and use the down and up arrow keys. You
will find a menu entry to modify, answer, delete or mark the comment
as closed.
You can also display the list of comments in pressing nvda+F7, you
can choose to display the list of annotations and browse through the
different comments.
If you don't know the keystroke, when NVDA says "has a comment", you
can have it read in pressing nvda+alt+C.
Enjoy!

Subject: [nvda] Problem with NVDA and some Firefox addons which activate via context menu

Hi,
For some Firefox addons, e.g. ContextSearch (still some more, but I have already deleted and forget there names lol) mentioned that these addons can be activated via context menu.

However after installing them, I pressed keyboard aplication key to bring up the context menu inside a web page, the menu has no change. Others tested it out that the context menu only works if they use mouse to select something and right click with mouse.

Does it related to how NVDA work? or it is something that Firefo need to fix?
Thanks.
William

Internet Explorer has a run command so you can run an installer from a web site. With firefox, save the installer, then go to it however you go to any file and run it.

Hello Group,

I have a Windows 7 computer, NVDA 2017, Firefox 52, and am interested
to download and set up SpyBot on my computer, or even if possible, go
to their website and do a scan if that exists anymore as an option.

If I download something, I press save. Then I press alt-r to run the
setup file, but in a lot of cases, I cannot tell that I can proceed to
install the program. I can go to downloads and find the wanted file,
press enter, but it remains as it was before doing alt-r to run. What
step or steps am I missing to advance to installation?
This happened with Avast, Malware Bytes and something else a while
back. Those previous have been deleted. Thanks for the help in
advance.

Hello Rick, Ollie and all,

The shortcut to go to next and previous comment does not work here.

May be it is different from one language to the other.

I hope it worked for your friend Ollie

Hello Sylvie and Ollie:

The method described by Sylvie will find more than comments if present in a document. For example, if track changes was used to record changes made to a document, the A key while in browse mode will also move to those as well as comments. Furthermore, when using the A key in browse mode, it will take you to the place in the document where the selected text associated with the comment is, but will not place you in the actual comment for editing, deleting or replying.

Word has built-in keystrokes for navigating comments in a document which will work with any screen reader. Alt+N will move to the next comment while Alt+V will move you to a previous comment. When using these commands, you are actually placed in the comment and can perform the keystrokes described by Silvie to respond to or delete a comment.

Hello again Ollie,
If you enable the browsing mode in word with Nvda+spacebar, you can jump to one comment/annotation by pressing a.
When you are on the comment you want to see, right click with the appropriate key or shift+f10 and use the down and up arrow keys. You will find a menu entry to modify, answer, delete or mark the comment as closed.
You can also display the list of comments in pressing nvda+F7, you can choose to display the list of annotations and browse through the different comments.
If you don't know the keystroke, when NVDA says "has a comment", you can have it read in pressing nvda+alt+C.
Enjoy!
Sylvie

I just got notified by NVDA that there was a new version of the add-on
updater available. When I tried to download it the first time, it gave me an
error message. The second time, it acted like it was starting to download,
but it stayed stuck at 0% for ages and seemed to do nothing.

Hi,


I've many problems with the actual version of Firefox, 63.0.1 32b and
NVDA alfa (actually two days)


Basically, every time I try to open a second tab with control shift
enter Firefox crashes and when I reload it FF crash again, until I use
shift enter to open the progra,, open the restart menu and start it
again. The pages I'm trying are www.elmostrador.cl and
www.dimeadozen.org also if I try to open for example,
translate.google.com from the Firefox that I loaded using shift enter
(from the desktop) Firefox crashes.

What is happening? is the unstable version of NVDA or is Firefox?


Regards,

mk.

When you use insert control f, do you hear search dialog if you wait for speech after issuing the command? That is what you should hear when the NVDA search dialog comes up. I didn't see when I read your message the first time, that you have tried NVDA f so I gave that command in my first message. Also, I find at times, and I don't know if this has been corrected in later versions than I am using, that if ai do a search, sometimes the search lands on a line that doesn't contain what I am searching for. Repeating the search from where I am causes it to work properly.

Hi




Is the insert key your modifier key or another like the caps lock or extended insert key? It would be that one you chose but you probably are using the right one. for example nvda key +ctrl + letter f key.

Hello NVDA family,

That's why I chose React Native, and I have enough knowledge of JavaScript. I thought I could move on.

The problem is that there is a communication gap between Android Studio and NVDA. Java Access Bridge board. In the locations of the DLL files, JAB is enabled from the Control Panel.

Before configuring JAB, NVDA said, "Java Access Bridge not found."

My system information is as follows:
Windows: 10, 1803;
OS build: 17134.345;
Bit: 64;
About NVDA:
Version: 2018.3.2,
I don't have a setting and plugin to affect JAB.

I made the settings in Oracle's doc:
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/accessbridge/2.0.2/setup.htm,
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/access/enable_and_test.htm

This is also Google's document: https: //developer.android.com/studio/intro/accessibility


There is something strange, when I set up the "JDK", it is set up in "JAB". But it says here I have to set up the JAB manually. After the installation of JDK I checked the dll files, all of which are settled in their correct paths. I don't need a dll files copy.
Oracle said that the current versions installed, there is an older version.

Where do you think I'm making a mistake?

If you have friends who are developing with Android Studio, it would be great if they could help me by connecting with NVDA Remote. This problem exceeds my technical knowledge.

And I'm looking forward to the advice of those who have experience writing applications to mobile platforms before. Your contributions will advance me very fast.

Good days, nice uses and nice codings.
