For that action you need to turn on tool tips in setting, object presentation. Then it will speak help for those items.

NVDA used to announce the same in the earlier version. so is this

Hi,

I think their was a add-on that played sounds for when you got to a radio button, checkbox, or button. I think it was called Object Nav, will it be updated to work with the current NVDA version?

Welcome to the NVDA Community Add-ons website - Ignore Blanks Indentation Reporting #nvdaaddonsfeed

nvda@nvda.groups.io Integration <nvda@...>
 

Ignore Blanks Indentation Reporting

  • Author: Samuel Kacer
  • NVDA compatibility: 2021.1 and beyond
  • Download stable version

This is an NVDA addon that alters the reporting of indentation by disregarding blank lines when deciding whether to report changes in indentation. It is best understood by contrasting with normal behaviour with an example.

Consider this example:

def foo():
    x = 42

    return x

def bar():

The current behaviour of NVDA is to report indentation changes for any line where the indentation has changed, even if the line is blank. So, the example would be read like:

def foo():
tab x = 42
no indent blank
tab return x
no indent blank
def bar():

The disadvantage for this behaviour is that for most programming languages, like python, a blank line has no semantic significance and is just used to visually separate lines of code with no change to the code's meaning. Therefore, by reporting the change of indentation upon entering a blank line and then reporting it again after landing on the next line is just noise that makes it harder to focus on understanding the code.

This addon aims to improve on the behaviour by ignoring blank lines when computing indentation speech, thus the example is read like this instead:

def foo():
tab x = 42
blank
return x

no indent def bar():

In the main window, tabbing does nothing. 
 
I haven’t used the add-on.  For now, you should be able to use a version that works with the add-on as a portable version.

I gather that there is no add-on for MP3 Direct Cut that is compatible with the current version of NVDA.  I made good use of the prior add-ons for this program.

That isn’t what appears to be wanted.  The descriptions you are talking about appear to be things like reply to the sender of a message when you are on the reply control in a ribbon.  These are not the same messages as in a combo box, for example when JAWS tutor help is on, up and down arrow to select item. 
 
JAWS also announces tutor help when you use control tab even when tutor help is off.

I'm not 100% sure but you can press NVDA + 2 to toggle the announcing
of command keys, for example if you have this setting enabled if you
press tab NVDA will announce tab and then whatever control is focused.
You can enable the reporting of tooltips in the NVDA settings under
review cursor I believe which may solve your other problem but I could
be wrong.

Awesome, the filter data should be small enough to stash in a cookie, and there shouldn't be any additional privacy implications as long as all you stash are the serialized values.


Thanks again, this is definitely a useful resource.

I don't really care about addons not compatible with the latest NVDA, for instance. As of now, I seem to have to reset these preferences on every load. Might be nice to have them persist.

NVDA Is Not Reading Cell Contents With Excel online and Box

Martin O'Sullivan
 

I use Box and access shared excel files online.

 

Up until last week it worked slowly, but it was possible to navigate the spread sheet.

 

However now NVDA  will not read the sell contents.

 

Here is the output from  NVDA Please note that the filename has been changed to filename, as the file name is confidential.

Start of output from NVDA

“

filename.xlsx on Box for Office Online - powered by Box  busy

frame    about:blank

application

main landmark

grid  edit  blank

alert  CSM Metrics Draft V4.xlsx . Excel . Editing View . 19 worksheets . Current worksheet is Martin . Press Alt Shift A for accessibility help .

YES . Martin . "E" 10 . Data validation Press Alt+Down to Expand The Data Validation Options .

YES . Martin . "E" 10 . Data validation Press Alt+Down to Expand The Data Validation Options .  label

“

End of output from NVDA

 

Please note that it red out the contents of the sell which   the focus happened to be in when the spread sheet opened

 

When I arrow around the spread sheet, NVDA says "main landmark" It says this only once, and then there is no speech output.

 

It doesn’t even read out the sell references.

 

I can press F2 and  arrow about in the sell, and if there is content in there, then it will read it out.

 

I have tried google chrome, and it can read the sells  however it says blank and then reads out the content in the sell.

 

NVDA Version: 2021.1

Firefox version 90.0.2 (64-bit)   

Google chrome version 92.0.4515.131 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Version of excel  just says Excel for the web

Hi 

 

Update on this topic,  Cisco did some upgrades to improve the interface, and WebEx does work again with NVDA.

 

It seems that one of their corporate clients has a policy that all their new software solutions should be accessible.  and Cisco fixed the problem.

 

Have others noticed the fix yet?
