 Hi guys
 
                                                                                              
 
 
 I had a phone call this morning from a local newspaper who
 came out to do an interview out of the blue.
 
 It is about the first person in New Zealand getting the NVDA
 expert certification. I was a bit surprised, but pretty
 happy with the article itself!
 
 
 
 The article is about the certificate and some other NVDA
 related articles and a little bit pointing towards the
 Accessibility Central website where people can find more
 information on NVDA and other blindness related topics.
 
 
 
 So, hopefully NVaccess has some more hits coming their way
 as well as the word getting out more about NVDA!
 
 
 
 
 Here is a link to the article below.

hello, yes of course!


that was the first thing i did.
but now i know the reason for my problem.
the versions of skype be low 7.30 are good, the newer versions are buggy.
now i've installed the version 7.26 of skype and my problem is away.
so for every one who want to install skype, don't use the newest
versions above 7.3x.
lower versions you can install if you want but don't update!
that was the solution.
thanks for all who have tried to help me.

Hello,


Look at this bug report that I've filed with Microsoft about a
similar (if not the same) issue:

https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/skype/forum/skype_windesk-skype_m
essms/problems-caused-by-an-invisible-window-of-skype/30f2b194-0287-4
018-a391-9fbc65b82a17?tm=1498289989517


Are you by any chance closing this invisible window of Skype? If so -
stop doing it and Skype should behave as expected.

Hope this helps.

Hmmm I am thinking of replacing my laptop with something else, and I have intel now.

So I guess I stay with intel.

I havn't had issues with amd video so its good to know.

I'm not that happy about AMD modern processors and motherboards myself. Having tried a few the end result seems less smooth than intel systems of a similar spec.

I think the only comment I'll make on your comment about the keys on laptops is

Screeeeeeeeeeeeeem!

All those units are like this now.

Even mine is.

The only reason I like toshiba is that its bios is accessible from its own aplet.

Sadly I am unsure if any newer toshiba units continue to use amd hardware which is nice.

nvidia stuff can be good but is just that bit more querky to handle.

I guess I will have to go hp, hp do have amd quad cores, but I am not sure what soundcards they have.

I only need the crappy realtech one nothing more really but still.

I was also a bit annoyed to find so many laptops on sale where the function keys are no longer function keys and in order to become them need a custom key labelled fn tobe held down, making some commands almost impossible. Unfortuunately with a lot of these things these days you seem to need a sighted person to fix such things as the only way to do it is in the bios or whatever its called these days Gaming and media playing seem to have hijacked standard keyboard functions.
In the old days one could alter a text file used at boot up to say things liik
numlock=off
to change how a machine boots up its a great pity that this functionallity was not brought up to date on machines so we could change them easily.

Hi Florian,


If you setup NVDA to use the "Laptop" keyboard layout, it uses different keystrokes which don't expect a number pad. Some of the other regular keystrokes are different too, such as NVDA+a to read all (instead of NVDA+down arrow) and NVDA+l to read the current line (rather than NVDA+up arrow). Particularly see the following sections of the User Guide:


Object navigation: https://www.nvaccess.org/files/nvda/documentation/userGuide.html?#ObjectNavigation
Review cursor: https://www.nvaccess.org/files/nvda/documentation/userGuide.html?#ReviewingText


The other keys are scattered throughout the User Guide.



Regards


Quentin.

Hi everyone!
Do you know the functions of numpad keys? For example, Numpad5 Speaks
the word of the current navigator object where the review cursor is
situated. Pressing twice spells the word. Pressing three times spells
the word using character descriptions.
However, there is a problem. Some laptops such as laptops for gaming
don't have 2 home keys, 2 end keys and 2 page up and page down keys, or
they don't have a key for toggling the numlock on and off and they can
come with the numlock on as default, without providing the possibility
of its deactivation. What can you do in these situations?
Another question: Do you know the NVDA rotor that can be used with
NVDA+Control+arrows? Well, a member of Romanian community suggested the
adding of these functions to NVDA's rotor. What do you think about that?
Cheers,
Florian

I have had this now and again for years I have just lived with sorry not much help but your not really on your own.

Would it be possible to set it up so that, if an app stops responding, NVDA doesn't also stop?
Here's an example.
Note: this is not a definitive example, just the one that happened most recently prior to composing this message and is thus fresh in my mind.
I have drives in my computer that go to sleep when they aren't being accessed. If you try to access the drive, any program used to access them stalls until the drive wakes up, and NVDA stalls right along with it. The whole computer isn't stalled, just the foreground app and NVDA. I know this because I can alt tab out of the app and, for example, hit a key to start an audio file playing again. NVDA doesn't wake up again until the stalled app starts moving.
This is probably going to be another one of those situations where nobody else can pin it down, or: I can't duplicate this so you are on your own, but I thought I'd ask anyway.

Hi,

Time-out problem, I think. Tyler or other gurus, any thoughts?

Cheers,

Joseph

Hi joseph

I disabled and enabled the add-ons as you explained to me, but the problem remained there even with the sticky keys turned off.

To remind you again what is the problem, when I press the insert plus f12 to check the time it works, but when I press it twice to read me out the date it doesn’t work.

And that happens withother commands where I have to press them more than once.

Thanks in advance

Anthony   

Hi,

And sticky keys option in Ease of Access isn’t helping, and did restarting NVDA (both with add-ons enabled and disabled) improve the situation?

Cheers,

Joseph

Hi joseph

I am a single handedperson so to be able to use my laptop keyboard I need to use the sticky keys.  

My problem is that I am noticing that the sticky keys are interfering with the capslock, 

And the other problem is when I come for example to press the insert plus f12 twice to check the date it doesn’t work.

And that happens also with the other commands that we have to press them once, twice and more to do do certain things.

In my opinion the sticky keys are not working as they should with NVDA.

Can you please do something about it to be resolved?

I hope you will be able to understand what I mean.

Thanks in advance

Anthony  

Dear NVDA community:

For those on NVDA users and add-ons lists: a few days ago I announced Project Hidden Singer/Big Bang, a project to restructure code in Windows 10 App Essentials and say goodbye to old workarounds. This is partly motivated by the fact that, with NVDA 2017.3, features from this add-on will make their debut as part of the screen reader itself, so the add-on is no longer required for some major tasks. The below announcement is just a first step in this project, with the complete picture emerging by September 2017.

Announcement text:

As part of NVDA 2017.3, NV Access, together with Joseph Lee, a Windows Insider and a noted NVDA expert in United States, have developed a set of features designed to improve user experience for Windows 10 users using NVDA. Prior to the upcoming release, an add-on called Windows 10 app Essentials have included features such as sounds to indicate appearance of search suggestions, announcing top search suggestion in braille and various workarounds for Windows 10 and various universal apps. Joseph, the author of the Windows 10 App Essentials, is delighted to announce that these features will be part of upcoming NVDA 2017.3, scheduled to hit the air sometime in August 2017.

As part of this work, I (Joseph Lee) would like to announce three important things:

1. A fall release of Windows 10 App Essentials add-on will require NVDA 2017.3. This will be in place no later than October 2017.
2. For those using NVDA snapshots (master and/or next), a new “pilot development” channel will be introduced. You may occasionally hear references to “try builds”, “fast ring snapshots” and what not, but in context of this add-on, it all refers to the pilot channel. This channel will not show up in update channel list, as this channel is designed to receive continuous feedback i.e. this channel requires NVDA snapshots. Anyone using development channel of this add-on along with NVDA master or next snapshots will be moved to this channel, as code in this channel parts ways with compatibility layer code, as changes made to NVDA snapshots will be reflected in these builds. If you are using Windows 10 App Essentials development snapshots under NVDA stable (2017.2, for example), you’ll stay in development channel (sometimes called “slow ring”) in order to preserve compatibility layer routines.
3. Speaking of snapshot combinations: starting from June 28^th WinTenApps snapshot, those on pilot development channel will get a build that is equivalent to NVDA next snapshots. This snapshot removes compatibility layer in place for search suggestion announcement, as this is no longer required if you are on latest master and/or next snapshots as NVDA itself will handle this for you.

Thank you.

Cheers,

Joseph

Hello dear Bhavya,
First, excuse me because I misspelled your name in my previous email.
Second, WordPress has no problem. The problem is, in our country, we
have responsibles that think on behalf of us and decide for us that
which page or site we should visit or shouldn't. Actually,
wordpress.com hosted blogs in Persian which their authors' opinions
are against our politicians and government. Therefore they decide to
filter the whole WordPress.
Excuse me because of my poor English. By the way, don't worry. As I
said before, we can use antifiltering software to bypass the filter
and view your blog on WordPress.
Good luck and best wishes,
Mohammadreza

خانم آیت، لطفا کار مردم رو زیاد نکنید. اگه میخواین وبلاگ رو ببینید، یا
از فیلترشکن استفاده کنید، یا اونجور که گفتید، یه بار با اینترنت
اکسپلورر ۷ وارد بلاگ بشید، آدرس ایمیلتونو وارد کنید تا پست‌ها رو خود
بلاگ براتون بفرسته.
