Re: How do I set up a keyboard short cut to start NVDA?
Robert Doc Wright godfearer
Herman, when you go to the NVDA icon on your desktop press alt+enter and tell me if your first two dialog boxes look like this:
Target "C:\Program Files (x86)\NVDA\nvda_slave.exe" launchNVDA -r
Application location C:\Program Files (x86)\NVDA

Hi,
as we are talking about alt+control+n to start NVDA: I'm using the latest Version of NVDA in connection with Windows 10. The hotkey alt+control+n is active so I'm told by Windows. But it doesn't work. Is it recommended to run NVDA as an administrator to correct this?

Hello Hermann,
-----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: nvda@nvda.groups.io [mailto:nvda@nvda.groups.io] Im Auftrag von Hermann-Josef Kurzen as we are talking about alt+control+n to start NVDA: I'm using the latest Version of NVDA in connection with Windows 10. The hotkey alt+control+n is active so I'm told by Windows. But it doesn't work. Is it recommended to run NVDA as an administrator to correct this? I had a similar issue last week when I tried to update NVDA fromm my normal user account. In my case NVDA froze when windows asked me for my admin password and I had to ask a co-worker to help me to log in and reinstall NVDA from my administrator account. Now, it starts again automatically at login and the shortcut works in both the admin and the user account. My suggestion for you would be to reinstall NVDA from your admin account. Kind regards, Bianka Brankovic

NVDA\s touch gestures
hurrikennyandopo ...
Hi guys
I am not a touch screen user with NVDA but wanted to know what gestures there were for NVDA from the user manual. I think I got them all.
I was curious as well does the add on for touch gestures for nvda have more gestures there? or let you do more with touch with NVDA.
Below is a list of what I came across in the user manual while wasting some time. Those who use touch might help if not written down all ready.

Josh, you may find it necessary to number them like:

001 010 020 .... 100 I rather suspect we'll likely be asked to take it on the chat list if after this you're still having trouble, & I'm not subscribed. But maybe this will help out.

kid3 mp3 tag editor
Josh Kennedy
Hi,
I am trying to edit the tags across multiple mp3 files with this mp3 tag editor.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/kid3/
I want to set it up so all the mp3 files play in order when I sync my iTunes library to my iPhone/iPod touch and to do that I have to modify the tags of each mp3. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong though because when I hit the tag1 button and it says from filename and then I save, go to tools, number tracks, hit ok, hit save. Then re-import into iTunes the files are still out of order. Has anyone used the above software with NVDA? What is the best way ;to make a folder full of mp3 files play in order from first to last? I have the files numbered 1 through 131. But this does not help.

mp3 tag editors
Josh Kennedy
Hi,
I found out the kid3 mp3 tag editor is free and is pretty accessible with NVDA. Do any of you know of any other free mp3 tag editors? It is the only way I can organize a folder full of files I have so they play in order from the first episode to the last episode in iTunes. Otherwise they sinc to my iPhone all out of order.

Re: How do I set up a keyboard short cut to start NVDA?
molly the blind tech lover
Hi ☺ You can set control plus alt plus n as the keyboard shortcut. I think this can be done by default when you first set up NVDA. It will ask you if you want to create a keyboard shortcut with control plus alt plus n, but you could probably assign a different keystroke.

you will have to modify the nvda shortcut properties under the general tab you will find a section for shortcut key where you can enter your desired keyboard shortcut sequence

I thought it could also be done inside of NVDA but I don't see it. It was no big deal to just set it up in Windows. I like hearing MS David. Looks like NVDA keeps getting better. Thanks, James B

Re: Are web applications that accessible?
Sean Murphy
If the web app you are using is independent of a browser. In other word is self-contained browser like skype, Visual Code Editor and others. Then what is available to you is very restrictive. As the screen reader is fully dependent on what is revealed by this style of app via the accessibility framework like UIA, MSAA or iaccess2. If you cannot write a plugin, then you will have very limited access to available information.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
If the app is usable in any browser, then you have more flexibility and there are extension based upon Javascript that permits you to modify the web page. You require knowledge in JavaScript languages to modify the page. A general overview how web pages regardless if they are stand-alone apps or uses any web browser work: * the web page is loaded. * The DOM is populated (Document Object Model). * the accessibility tree of the browser is populated which has the required information for a assistive technology product. * The accessibility API (framework) like UIA is populated by the browser. * the screen reader then interrogates the accessibility API or the browser directly. There is more complexity to what I have outlined above. But this gives a general overview how information flows. NVDA might be able to get more information but you need to learn python, the accessibility API and possibly a bunch of other API information to get the information you want. A major learning curve for yourself. Where it would be far cost effective for your energy and time to reach out to the owner of the product to make the require changes. Sean

Hi Robert, Those are actually very interesting questions. I have theories, but that's all they are. I'm sure someone who is more expert on this topic will correct me if it turns out I'm wrong, which I'm sure I probably am. The simple answer first. Announcements for several document elements (table headers, clickable items, links, headings etc) can be enabled or disabled through the document formatting section of the settings dialog. Other than that, the only way to really customise what is spoken by NVDA (such as changing control type text, changing spoken order etc) is through scripting. Now for my theories. Scripting web app enhancements with NVDA wouldn't be as simple as making an app module for several reasons. 1. NVDA has its own internal stuff that allows it to do its browse/focus mode thing. This could interfere with web apps that you might think can be scripted as app modules (those packaged as executables like Skype and so on). 2. The web browser is just a host for the app, and so I'm guessing NVDA can't get to it the same way it gets to a standard desktop control. Even apps packaged as their own executables like Skype are actually using Chrome/Chromium/whatever it's called these days. 3. Bear in mind that different browsers have different rules for rendering controls and information, and so unfortunately it wouldn't be a uniform process. Having said that. There are several accessibility API's that NVDA has, over the years, managed to smack under one umbrella. So I'm guessing that's only a matter of time before the same can be done for web browsers, and eventually, web apps. As for profiles. My guess is that those can be used in the normal way for web apps that come as executables, but would be difficult to set up for external websites, for similar reasons. The profile would be triggered by the browser, not the app itself. Cheers, Damien. On 12/10/2019 07:21 pm, Robert Logue wrote: 1: Is it difficult for users to script NVDA for web applications?
