Were either NVDA or Chrome versions different when this was working?

Can you explain more about what exactly is being read? Luke

You are right, and I don't usually worry about inserting the date for the same reason - I'm not sure if there is an easy way for the shop products, but I'll have a look.

Re: In-Process 1st October
Thanks! I don't usually edit blog posts or otherwise after I create them, but maybe it would be best to remove that text completely and just let wordpress tell the shopper when it was last updated. I haven't looked at any of the other items but that may be a good idea?

Re: So what will happen to my favorite add-ons in the future: September 2019 update

Hi everyone, I have had confirmation from Code Factory that they have a working version for 2019.3 and will release it around when we are getting ready to release 2019.3. So yes, you will be able to use Eloquence (and Vocalizer) for NVDA 2019.3! Kind regards Quentin.

Re: issue with secure banking site
If it's Fidelity investments it would be best to navigate those tables and otherwise and forms mode, and save browse mode for when you want to go to the different account tabs and such. Otherwise, have no clue what bank you deal with, so have no clue what you're talking about.

Re: In-Process 1st October

Hi Robert, My apologies, that was an omission on my part - we updated the material itself, I just didn't change the date on the shop page. I've done that now (for both Audio and Braille). If you go to https://www.nvaccess.org/my-account/downloads/ you can download all the material you have purchased, and the audio version will be the latest one. Kind regards Quentin.

Brian, thank you for expressing that concern. I also believe that many users would benefit greatly from this implementation. Different people come with different skill levels. Have a great day.

The "Usage" section is very brief, but it's a starting point, and probably all that anyone familiar with the functionality from another screen reader needs. I believe there is a lot of discussion going on about documentation for Add-Ons, and I am hoping that, at the very least, some sort of "Quick Start Guide" will become required. There are a number of them that I have no idea how one does anything beyond installing them. I don't expect a multi-chapter user guide, but something would be nice. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 1903, Build 18362 The color of truth is grey. ~ André Gide

There are tricks one can use though, with the screen reader on and using the standard web browser find, not the screen reader find, to get yourself to the first word or phrase from which you wish to begin selecting, turning off the screen reader, and using keyboard commands to select and copy the text before turning the screen reader on again. See: Selecting Text Using Windows Keyboard Shortcuts These shortcuts do not work in a web browser while the screen reader is active, but they sure do when it's not. I just experimented on an article from the New York Times using NVDA. If I did a browser find for the text I wanted as the start of my selection block, turned off the screen reader, and used the appropriate keyboard command to select it and what is beyond it (in my case I used SHIFT+Down Arrow to get a line at a time, intentionally overshooting, then turning the screen reader on again and pasting into MS-Word the formatting of all the click-through links is maintained. There is some danger in picking up sidebar content you may not want using this method if you're selecting a large chunk of text, so you need to check that you don't have anything extraneous. But it is a way to get a chunk of text out of a web page with formatting preserved for pasting elsewhere that can keep that formatting, like a word processor. I also found that the CTRL+A command works to select all from the webpage even when NVDA is on, and if you're good at hacking out all that precedes and follows a passage or passages you wish to retain in a word processor, you can paste the whole article (images and all, including sidebar content) into MS-Word and deal with it there. Even the HTML structure is pasted into Word and shows up in the navigation pane, if you're using same, so the various headings, etc., are there. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 1903, Build 18362 The color of truth is grey. ~ André Gide

Surely these are Windows functions and nothing to do with any screen reader. Copy the text to the clipboard then try using the “Paste Special” options inThey are surely not, at least not in the context of web browsers. In a web browser, the text you read with NVDA, is a special reproduction of what was actually on the page. It is called a virtual buffer. The only time you are interacting with the webpage itself, is when you are in forms mode (focus mode). In order to copy in the way that is desired, you would need to be able to copy in focus mode. Of course, in focus mode, you can't actually hear or read what is being selected. However, with NVDA+space, you can enter focus mode, use shift+arrow keys to highlight some text blindly, and use Control+C to copy it. Then press NVDA+space again. At that point, you should be able to paste normally, and get formatting. However, odds are that you won't get the exact same stuff that you were reading before. Things that may have been presented on several lines, for example, may be presented as single selectable elements. You will have to play with it, and will definitely have to carefully review anything you copy and paste in this way. Luke

Hi
I went to there you tube channel from off the website of theres and I could only find it for the zoom magnifier not the zoom conferencing software. Maybe I missed it.
I think I will also sign up later on today or tomorrow for a free account then do it from the side of it been hosted the basics and lay out etc when I got it worked out.
Also will check out training material from the zoom website etc which I have been doing.
I will do it more on the audio side not all the other stuff I think I will point to videos for that.
Would I have any takers who would like to read the tutorial after it has been typed up especially those who have done it from both sides? to make sure it is right before posting to the website of mine for others to use or follow. If so I can contact you off list for that or the other way around.

Strange Problem With NVDA Remote 2.2
Dave Marthouse <dmarthouse@...>
I experienced a strange problem with NVDA Remote 2.2.
When I was doing an install of NVDA on a Windows10 machine NVDA installed with no problems. When I attempted to install the remote add-on I was informed that Adobe acrobat could not open this program. I could not install the remote even when I un-installed Acrobat. I have installed NVDA and Remote on dozens of computers and never experienced this problem. Does any one have the fix for this puzzler? Dave Marthouse dmarthouse@...
