Re: NVDA going silent.
MAX <max@...>
I don't understand what you mean by sleep mode. I turned off character speak using nvda key 2 but it didn't keep it from going into its silent mode. It's in it right now. I hope this message will make sense as I am not getting any beeping feedback. Or reading of lines as I up and down arrow.

Re: chrome help needed

There may be no accessible control when using
Chrome. I am not using new versions of NVDA nor of Chrome on this machine
but I found nothing. You may have to use Internet Explorer.
Also, g moves you to the next graphic so you are finding and clicking on an image in Internet Explorer. Evidently, Chrome isn't showing this image or not doing so in such a way that your screen-reader is aware of it. Others may know more about this regarding other browsers. I know of no way to get Chrome to show this image in an accessible way. I am assuming you didn't change any settings regarding images in Chrome.

Re: Footnotes in LibreOffice
no, its not possible!

navigating between footnotes, endnotes and comments are not accessible in libreoffice unfortunately. i really did not test newer versions of libreoffice, but i always follow bugzilla and did not see any progress for accessibility in recent versions. for me, if i find one footnote and use arrow keys, i only navigate between footnotes and lose my main document!

Re: chrome help needed
Gene
Please give a link to a specific page you are
working with when asking for help unless the problem occurs on the home page of
the web site. You gave the home page. I doubt there is a play
control on that page, since it leads to stories but has no actual story on the
page. I don't know if every story is supposed to have a play control or if
only certain ones do. I looked at one story page with Chrome and found no
play control. I don't know what I might have found using different
browsers and I don't know if the page is even one I should be working
with.
When you are on a page where you are having the
problem, copy the address from the address bar and paste it into the
message.

Footnotes in LibreOffice
kelby carlson
Is there an easy way to navigate to footnotes and endnotes in
LibreOffice using only the keyboard in NVDA? Also, is there a way to get NVDA to speak the numbers of footnotes when going through the list? LibreOffice seems much faster and more intuitive than Word and I'd like to try using it for awhile. -- Kelby Carlson

Re: CAPTCHA AND KEYBOARD SETTINGS

There are times when no captcha is presented and
you are told you are verified. There are times when you must solve a
captcha, at times Recaptcha will ask for another to be solved after you solve
the first.

This depends on the kind of CAPTCHA. If it is a Recaptcha, often checking the box that says "I'm not a robot" will be sufficient. Sometimes this doesn't work, but it often works if you use the Chrome browser.

Steve's Questions
David Russell
Hi group and Steve,
Welcome to the NVDA Group, and I too hope you had a good Dec. 25 and that 2019 will be full of health and well-being for all of us. The answer to your question about changing voice settings is Insert numeral two and numeral three. Pressing the insert key together with the number two will turn character speak on or off. Insert key together with numeral three turns speak words on or off. The insert key, if you are unfamiliar, may be just to the right of the backspace key. All the best. -- David Russell david.sonofhashem@...

A worrying trend recently seems to be that you get asked to click on the picture containing a whatever. I have not found any work around for these. The old wobbly ones have an audio but with a hearing loss I'd imagine its almost impossible to understand them. I seriously feel that blindness organisations in countries that have disability laws should be funding class actions against sites using these things.

Is your internet connection on the blink. I've seen this sort fo problem in other mail clients when the server is very slow or the internet connection is not so good. Eventually it should give a message of some sort, but if you do not wait long enough and try to come out you will get the messages waiting warning.

Well, I found on my windows 7 machine that this effect is very synth depended. Any Microsoft one has the issue, but cntrl alt del to lock the computer seems to speak and if you then cancel it often comes back to life, from which I deduce this might be a windows issue of some kind.
