Hi.

Correction, the WhatsApp desktop client can send audio messages. There is a button at the bottom of the chat, that can send voice notes. It's not labelled. You can press the button to record, then press the button again to stop recording and send the message. I normally go to a next chat to cancel.
Cloudflare HCAPTCHA using NVDA problem

William
 

Hello,

I recently found that, Cloudflare has shifted to a new CAPTCHA provider and making the process inaccessible via NVDA or probably other screen reader as well.

It is like the new CAPTCHA provider do not offer an lternative way other then visual CAPTCHA.

Do any one also experience the same issue?

Kerryn,

          You may, and I emphasize may, be able to use the Golden Cursor add-on to accomplish what you're hoping for within specific application (which, I'd imagine, would include a web browser on a specific webpage).  See the NVDA+SHIFT+I command to add a tag or label based on the mouse position.  You'd still need to use Golden Cursor later to access the label, but you'd have it and know it's there.

           It's a workaround, but depending on how important it is, it's a possibility.

Hi


The following from a tutorial I was writing has the short cut keys for it in it.


I did not finish it as if you want to send attachments they are not labled  etc but could be added to say the options.


*Using WhatsApp with nvda

*WhatsApp  for web
There is a app version which you can install on to your computer. The app version is the same as the web version in looks. Both the web version and app version can not do audio or video at present.
so you can only send and recieve messages on the computer.
You will need to go to the following web address at https://web.whatsapp.com/
Before you can use the web version you must have it setup on your mobile phone and already have a account setup. After you have signed into the app on your phone you will need to go to more options...settings....whats app web and double tap. This will also need to be done on the computer you are using.then you will have to scan in a Qr code. If the code needs to be refreshed while on the graphic use the NVDA key + enter key to do this. from the monitor for it to sign you in.
The computer must be on the same web address as above.

when you go to scan in the QR code The QR code is on the top right corner of the screen.

This can be a little tricky to do but after it scans the code what shows on your phone will show on your computer monitor.
You will neeed to do this from your phone to scan in the 'QR code.
The phone might vibrate when it has scanned in the code then mirror your phone.

*After you have signed into the whats app on the web
*Quick navigation keys that can be used with NVDA

You can use the following B for buttons, E for editable fields, F or form fields, H for headings, K for link,
For some reason on the buttons you can not use the space bar or enter key you need to use the NVDA key + Enter key on the numeric keypad to activate them.
On some sections the enter key will work You can use The up, down, left and right arrow keys along with CTRL + home for the top of the page and CTRL + END for bottom of the page.
From the page after you have logged in as you go down the page you will hear the following button status, new chat button, menu button, button but if arrowed up once you will hear clickable turn on desk top notifications, or arrow down you will hear Search or start new chat
  Just under it is a editable area where you can type.

Re: Sharing Miranda NG packs

Shaun Everiss
 

I have doodled with miranda a little.

To be honest though I havn't done to much.

One thing you can't install every plugin without things screwing up on you so you need to know what every plugin does.

The sebake addition seems nice however a pack is a particular load of plugins and sounds configured.

For instance, the andrelouis sounds are part of miranda im now.

You can select the contact list for blind.

The only extras are the message export and a few other protocols as well as remove personal settings and history sweeper.

As a blind person you probably only need the protocols you want.

You can aparently use discord with it if you really care to.

Though to be honest I havn

't needed to use miranda for ages and due to things I don't like about both I have stopped using discord and unigram on my system alltogether.

Bar skype for a few things due to how some stuff has gone I have basically given up on everything bar email for now anyway.

However, for now I think I'll stop experimenting, because one change that i Did has unexpected results, and I don't know how to revert it, but if any Miranda's NVDA user has comments about its configuration can be useful.

I believe you are asking how you can turn off column and row announcements in tables.
To do that, you want to go to your Document Formatting settings, and uncheck "cell coordinates".
The short way of getting there is: NVDA+Ctrl+D, alt+O. Space to uncheck the box, then press enter.

Your period question has already been answered, and I don't know about auto suggest lists in Outlook, so can't help there.

I have no need for it now but I will try to make my own blind version and see what it does.

If I knew how, I'd love to make a pack and share it with you all, but I can't figure out how to export everything except my various accounts. Anyway, try the below.

Hi,
What JAWS calls PC cursor, NVDA sees it as system focus and caret. As Gene explained, browse mode in NVDA is equivalent (somewhat) to virtual PC cursor with forms mode off.
Cheers,
Joseph
