Hi All,

Although I too find this to be an annoyance, a friend of mine is constantly bothered by it, so he asked me to see if there is a work-around for this.

This is of course, when you do control + C, it says nothing, and you don't really know if your text was copied until you try pasting it elsewhere.

Is there an add-on or a way to make this speak when something gets put into the clipboard?

Thanks.

What happens when you follow a link in an e-mail or type an Internet address in the run dialog and open a web page in that way?  I have always found that help information in NVDA opens using the default browser.  If previous versions of NVDA work properly in this respecgt and this one doesn’t, then there may be a problem with what NVDA does.  If not, and if other things I’ve discussed don’t work properly, then there is a ;problem with Windows not knowing which browser is the default.

Hi


Is it associated with the browser or a browser.


What may happen is when you go into the whats new section you might have
to tell it what browser to use and check the box so it does it from then on.

Hi everyone,

The release candidate (RC) build of NVDA 2019.3 is now available for testing.  We encourage all users to download this RC and provide feedback. This is a release candidate for NVDA 2019.3. Unless any critical bugs are found, this will be identical to the final 2019.3 release.

More information and download link is available from: https://www.nvaccess.org/post/nvda-2019-3rc2-now-available-for-testing/

Hello NVDA users,

 

What a week it was – two NVDA 2019.3 betas in a span of few days. And you know what this means: another update on add-ons and 2019.3 readiness.

 

The biggest news is that NVDA Remote add-on is one step closer to 2019.3 compatibility. A few days ago, NV Access people sent necessary changes to make the add-on compatible with NVDA 2019.3 to add-on writers, which was subsequently accepted. Although work remains to be done, the add-on is getting ready for 2019.3 users.

 

Also, once NVDA 2019.3 release candidate (RC) is released, expect numerous important announcements from add-ons community on status of various add-ons. These will include another compatibility briefing, along with add-on authors announcing release of NVDA 2019.3 compatible versions of their add-ons or a schedule as to when these versions will appear on stable channel (I myself will announce such information within 24 hours after RC is released). Once 2019.3 RC is released, it will become crucial for users of incompatible add-ons to contact authors about the status of their add-ons, especially add-ons listed as incompatible on community add-ons website (under Announcements, Python 3 announcement page).

 

Thank you.

Cheers,

Joseph

Re the NVDARemote addon being detected as a trojan - this issue was rectified by Microsoft last week (or earlier, but at least last week, a day or so after it was reported anyway) - it should be fine now.  I just downloaded it and it's not being detected as a trojan here.  If anyone is still having that problem, please do let me know.

Re the question about couldn't we make a version of NVDA with Remote built-in and one without.  Theoretically, sure, although essentially that would be similar to now where you can download NVDA (as is) to have the version without Remote, and download the NVDARemote add-on to have the functionality. I'm not saying we're not willing to change it, just that essentially users have the choice currently of whether they want the functionality.

What you can do right now is turn off windows defender, unzip the addon into a empty folder, select all the files in that folder, and zip it back up then rename the file to nvda-addon.

Make sure you zip up the files and not make a new folder and zip that up because it won't work then.

Anyway after you do that, it works.

Its a bit more to do but it seems to fix it.

The only thing that makes sence is its the zipping program used, but who knows.

I have always used 7zip for zip and unzip opperations and use the 7z format for most things these days as do my friends.

And it is not possible to make what Freedom Scientific have made?

One version with remote access and another without?

That way the companies and institutions can install the version without remote access while the majority of users will install the complete version with the remote access...

Hi, Quentin

This is noted. I appreciate of your diligent response
but before I letting off you go for this topic. I still have one more question from you. Smile.
Since we are close to stable phase of the nvda 2019.3
would there be a chance that the addons for the Remote will be release at the same time?

On 1/30/2020 11:36 AM, Quentin Christensen wrote:

Hi Robert,

 

Thanks for the question.  Firstly, for everyone, We've pushed out a couple of pull requests to update NVDARemote for 2019.3, so that will be available for the stable version.

 

As to including NVDA Remote into NVDA itself, even though many users use it frequently and it is vital for some users, it is not something we are looking at bringing into core at this point, One reason for this is we have a number of users in corporate environments and we would get a lot of pushback from them (or their IT people at least) on updating NVDA to a version with that functionality.

 

The main thing is that the functionality will continue to be available going forward, even though at this point that will still involve the separate add-on.

 

Regards

 

Quentin.

Hi, Quentin

Thanks for the info however, I have clarification to ask if you don't mind.
Even so, if we are almost in the stable build version would there be a chance that the addons of the Remote also to be part of the update?

Hi everyone,

 

As you are all quick off the mark, this isn't completely new news, but confirming that yes, NVDA 2019.3 beta 3 is now available from: https://www.nvaccess.org/post/nvda-2019-3beta3-now-available-for-testing/ 

 

This is slight progression from the previous beta so you shouldn't notice too many big changes - of course as always happens, as we move closer to the final release, we don't put as many big new features in, but rather try to ensure that everything is stable and fix bugs people have reported in previous betas.

 

If you do encounter any issues, please do report them: https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues  If you could also clarify whether they are new issues or existing issues (which hadn't previously been reported) that would be really helpful - both are important to know about, but being able to pinpoint when something started being an issue helps narrow down where to look for a fix.

 

All things going well, this will be the last beta before the release candidate, which will be just before the final stable release.

 

Kind regards

 

Quentin.
