Hi all, First, thank you to Brian V for giving me permission to do something I’ve been dreaming about for the last few years: giving you a tour of NVDA screen reader internals. For the last few

Hi all, I'm reviving this call for NVDA internals topics so I can think about a few things as I post actual internals articles on this forum. But first, I need to discuss how to get into the mindset

Hi, That's the plan - I plan to write several posts touching one subject at a time (I will of course bring up recent discussions to put things into context). Cheers, Joseph

Joseph, One addition to my last post: It would be great if in any NVDA internals post you make that was "triggered by" an ongoing topic, you reference that topic directly in the post, and in the

Joseph, You know I appreciate these offerings, and will absolutely make an exception to group rules when they go "kinda meta" because I think it's important that those who want to know how things work

Yes I have two of those, it comes with a mouse that has a switch on the bottom so sighted people can use it. The battery life is phenomenal. However it could be scaled down, in my view, to fit in a

Well personal opinion warning... In my view computers are designed with an all too short life. Half the problems are to do with Microsoft trying to force higher spec and extra chips on people. Most do

Well, I'd go as far as saying that I am not aware of any laptop I find easy to type on and that has all the keys in sensible places, or indeed has them at all. So often things like page up and down,

Yes the problem with laptops is what keys are missing or only available by two other keys is so random. I have an old Dell, and that has no right hand windows context menu key unless you hit two other

I was always interested to know exactly how does the screen reader know what information to present. And how to prioritize this information. I would really enjoy and appreciate a response from you

Hi all, Found the cause (while working on a brand new add-on): NVDA simply ignores the label for the field, believing that the edit fields in envelopes dialog have the same labels as the document

If I pay a thousand bucks for a computer I sure ain't gona have to also buy a keyboard to use it. Guess I will go back to looking at the Lenovo Yoga or Ideapad.
