I made my last comments in the below message in
case you don't have NVDA set to display only one link on a line and if there is
more than one link on the line you are working with. You can use the home
shift end method for copying a full line of text.

You only have to use the insert f9 insert f10 method in places where no cursor

However you have links set to display, go to the
first letter of the link, and move through it holding the shift and use whatever
movement commands you want, end, the right arrow key, etc.

Pascal. I'm not sure if this is what you want to do, but arrow
down to the link you want to copy, press shift+DownArrow to select
it, then press the context menu key and arrow down to copy link
address and press enter. the link should now be copied to your
clipboard. I hope it helps. Cheers!

Hi All, under Windows 10 settings -> system -> Action Center it is possible to re-order the quick action buttons. I think sighted users are doing this via drag and drop. Is there a simple way to do it with the keyboard and NVDA? Thanks and best regards

Hi Quentin Thanks for the tip re the asterisk in Notepad files. I’d noticed it but didn’t know what it meant.
Cheers Chris
From: nvda@nvda.groups.io [mailto:nvda@nvda.groups.io] On Behalf Of Quentin Christensen
Just chiming in to give the visual perspective: In Notepad, when pressing control+s: - If the document has not been saved before, the "Save as" dialog appears and NVDA reports that. - If the document has been saved previously, Notepad saves it, and NVDA does not say anything (unless you have speak command keys on, in which case NVDA reports "control+s"). Notepad does put an asterisk at the start of the filename in the title bar when a document has been edited. This disappears when the document is saved. NVDA does read this asterisk when reading the title bar.
In Word 365, when pressing control+s: - If the document has not been saved before, a "Save this file" window appears and NVDA reports that. - If the document has been saved previously and "AutoSave" is enabled, nothing happens and NVDA does not report anything (again unless speak command keys is on to report "control+s"). With AutoSave on, the document is saved every time any key is pressed so control+s is not needed. - If the document has been saved previously and "AutoSave" is not enabled, the visual response is again subtle. When you open a document, or save it, the title bar notes "Filename - Saved". Once you change it, the "Saved" disappears. This gets reinstated when you save it. There is currently a known issue, I believe with the way Office is exposing the title bar. See: https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues/10150
Similar to announcing cut, copied or pasted, reporting when a document is saved is not something we would be inclined to add to NVDA UNLESS we could be sure a document had been saved. I can see the usefulness of the functionality for some users (it reminds me of how when teaching email, people often want confirmation that the email has been sent, but many email clients don't give that). For this reason, I would recommend it might be useful functionality for an add-on. Possibly Damien Garwood, developer of the ClipSpeak add-on, might be interested in adding it.
Kind regards
Quentin.

Close all open emails and make sure that your cursor is resting on any closed message in the current folder. Press control+Shif+tab to opens the "Folder List". NVDA announces "Folder List minimised". Press space bar to expand the list. Arrow down to the folder you want or type the initial letter of the folder name. Note that NVDA speaks the number of messages contained in the folder after giving the folder name. You can also open the Folder List by using control+y but this view of the list does not show the number of emails contained in each folder.

External email alert: Be wary of links & attachments. Hello all,
Is there an NVDA setting which will have NVDA make a sound when a new window is opened? For example, it would be helpful if, when launching Firefox, NVDA would make a sound when the window is open. Right now, I wait a few seconds and alt-tab around to see if a new window has opened. Window-Eyes used to do this and it was a great feature.
Thanks,

Re: Links on websites with submenus and/or links that NVDA can't interact with

You are replying in the wrong thread. I don’t know why you are having
the problem and you said you tried more than one browser. Chrome updates
automatically.
Of course strange things happen, but I doubt this is an NVDA problem.
You could try another screen-reader just to see if you get different
