Text boxes are a bit fiddly in word. The easiest thing to do is actually
create a new text box (alt+n, x, enter) then press escape ONCE which takes
the focus out of the text in the new text box but leaves the text box
itself selected. Finally press TAB - this moves focus between any text
boxes and other objects (pictures etc) in the document.

If a text box is created "inline", it is possible to get to it with NVDA -
it will be announced as "slash" in the middle of the surrounding text.
When you get to that select it with shift+right arrow then you should be
able to read it and / or move to others. Most text boxes aren't created
inline - they're not by default and really it defeats the purpose of them
which is to have a box of text you can dump anywhere on the page.

I would recommend not using text boxes for anything anyone is creating, and
instead look at using tables or indent to position things.

Kind regards

Quentin.

Hi


Not as in a text box? I am not sure if NVDA can interact with them I
would have to have a play and see if it can be done.


If you at least point me in the right direction under which menus I can
have a sus. There might even be ticket for it if it is them.

Hi Kevin


I just had a look at a microsoft word tutorial I am putting together
even in browse mode as well as focus mode it will read the picture in
it. If there is no ALT text put into it you will just hear graphic.

I did put ALT text into my graphic/photo, so that is why it is read
out.


Is the graphic picture or what ever it is on the web they might not
have
put in ALT text to say what the graphic/photo etc is about.

I think with a table if there was alt text you had to use the NVDA key
+
the letter D in the master snapshot.

hello

this is a good few months off yet, but Will nvda work with the graphiti
display when it comes out so we can view any image on the internet in
the form of a tactile graphic or perhaps even have multiLine braille
display for nvda? see the website

Works OK on my machine.  Assuming the filetype has ben associated with Excel, what happens when you just press enter on the problem file?
