Re: Is there a way to assign numbers to open tabs, and then jump to a tab by pressing its corresponding number
Gene
This is a browser function. If you use commands such as control 1,
control 2, etc. you can jump from tab to tab. You can use up to and
including number 8 in this way. As I understand this, control 9 moves you
to the last tab on the right, no matter how many you have opened.

Subject: [nvda] Is there a way to assign numbers to open tabs, and

I was wondering if there is any way in NVDA to assign numbers to open tabs,
and then jump to the tab by pressing its corresponding number, perhaps with a
modifier key as well.
currently I do find it quite difficult to navigate between many open tabs
by pressing alt and tab, is there perhaps an add-on or something in development
that could help me with this?

How do people deal with websites that have a lot of images and graphics, which cause the screen reader to slow down
Khalid Anwar
I was wondering how people do on webpages which have a lot of images and graphics, myself i fine them quite difficult to navigate because I always find that NVDA slows down significantly, although interestingly I don’t seem to have the same problem with narrator.
I was wondering what might be the best way to deal with these, is there any way to get NVDA to skip over graphics and images completely just ignore them?

Re: NVDA on Synchrony Bank site, unusable on login with chrome

I wonder what the list is between the username and password. If you

on the list.
I have no idea why you can use the page in browse

Re: NVDA focus question
Gene
Are you talking about on web pages specifically? Some pages don’t
line up properly between browse mode and forms mode. The result is that on
some web pages when you tab, you lose your place on the page. If that
happens, move in other ways, down arrow, k to move by link, b for button, in
short, using the various navigation keys other than tab.

Hi
group, I just had a question about the NVDA focus. I notice when NVDA reads something and I pause it where I want the focus to be or start pressing tab from the paused point to go to next link or something, the focus is back in the top where I started and did not move with the speech. Is there a way to have the focus with the speech? I have no idea what the different focus options are and have all of them enabled and was hoping someone could explain if there is a way to do what I would like to happen. I hope I make sense. Thank you very much

Re: CaptchaSolver
That add-on uses the paid service at rucaptcha.com, which is a Russia-based service. The price appears to be quite cheap, whether for regular Captchas or the more complex modern ones.
There's really no way to know how well these services do, or do not, work without trying them. As far as the NVDA Add-On, it appears to have been around for a while and is one of the "home grown" and not officially vetted add-ons. -- Brian - Windows 10, 64-Bit, Version 21H1, Build 19043 Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity. ~Martin Luther King, Jr.

You ask for a command to review the whole screen like the JAWS cursor. Your question is not clear. It could mean a command like control b that reads the window you are in in JAWS but that is not like the JAWS cursor. it simply recites everything on the screen. It appears to me that you mean, is there a command to turn on something like the JAWS cursor in NVDA.
I wrote the following recently to discuss this question and I’m reproducing it here.
For screen review,, which I’ll discuss here, the thing to know is that it is similar to the JAWS cursor, but the movement keys are different.
To enter screen review, and these commands are for the default desktop layout, Use the command num;pad insert numpad 7. At times, there is a review mode called document review that is available. It may be available if you are working in a Word processor. I’m not sure if it is ever available otherwise. If you issue numpad insert numpad f7, you will hear announced what mode you are in. If you are now in screen review mode, you will hear screen review announced. If you try to move further, you will hear no next review mode. You usually want to be in object review and you should return to it after you work in screen review. The command to do so is numpad insert numpad 1. You will hear object review announced. If you try to move further, you will hear no previous review mode. If document review is available, you will hear that as one of the options as you move. For example, if you are in object review mode and you use numpad f7, you will hear document review. Using the command again, you will hear screen review. Moving back, numpad insert numpad 1, you will hear the document review, then object review.
You can play with document review. I have hardly used it. It limits your movement to the document window, so you won’t be in any part of the screen other than that at the top or bottom of the screen.
The movement commands in screen review are as follows: Numpad 7. move back one line. Numpad 8, read current line. Numpad 9, move down one line. Numpad 4, move back one word. Numpad 5, read current word. Numpad 6, move forward one word. Numpad 1, move back one carachter. Numpad 2, read current character. Numpad 3, move forward one carachter. For numppad 8, 5, and 2, if you press numpad 8 and 5 twice quickly, they spell what they announce. In other words, numpad 8 twice spells the current line, numpad 5 spells the current word. If you press these keys three times quickly, they say what they announce phonetically, such as foxtrot alpha, etc. Since numpad 1 announces the current carachter, pressing it twice announces it phonetically. Obviously, no spell announcement is necessary because it is already announcing one single carachter.
To move to the top of the screen, use numpad shift 7. To move to the bottom, numpad shift 9.

You ask for a command to review the whole screen like the JAWS

that you mean, is there a command to turn on something like the JAWS cursor in
NVDA.
I wrote the following recently to discuss this question and I’m reproducing

For screen review,, which I’ll discuss here, the thing to know is that it
is similar to the JAWS cursor, but the movement keys are different.
To enter screen review, and these commands are for the default desktop
layout, Use the command num;pad insert numpad 7. At times, there is a
review mode called document review that is available. It may be available
if you are working in a Word processor. I’m not sure if it is ever
available otherwise. If you issue numpad insert numpad f7, you will hear
announced what mode you are in. If you are now in screen review mode, you
will hear screen review announced. If you try to move further, you will
hear no next review mode. You usually want to be in object review and you
should return to it after you work in screen review. The command to do so
is numpad insert numpad 1. You will hear object review announced. If
you try to move further, you will hear no previous review mode. If
document review is available, you will hear that as one of the options as you
move. For example, if you are in object review mode and you use numpad f7,
you will hear document review. Using the command again, you will hear
screen review. Moving back, numpad insert numpad 1, you will hear the
document review, then object review.
You can play with document review. I have hardly used it. It
limits your movement to the document window, so you won’t be in any part of the
screen other than that at the top or bottom of the screen.
The movement commands in screen review are as follows:
Numpad 7. move back one line.
Numpad 8, read current line.
Numpad 9, move down one line.
Numpad 4, move back one word.
Numpad 5, read current word.
Numpad 6, move forward one word.
Numpad 1, move back one carachter.
Numpad 2, read current character.
Numpad 3, move forward one carachter.
For numppad 8, 5, and 2, if you press numpad 8 and 5 twice quickly, they
spell what they announce. In other words, numpad 8 twice spells the
current line, numpad 5 spells the current word. If you press these keys
three times quickly, they say what they announce phonetically, such as foxtrot
alpha, etc.
Since numpad 1 announces the current carachter, pressing it twice announces
it phonetically. Obviously, no spell announcement is necessary because it
is already announcing one single carachter.
To move to the top of the screen, use numpad shift 7.
To move to the bottom, numpad shift 9.

Re: jaws cursor in nvda
Shaun Oliver
there's more than one.
first of all you have read all controls in the active window. NVDA+B, but, more importantly, you have your object navigation. Using the NVDA key along with the numpad, you can navigate the objects on the screen using numpad 2, numpad 4, numpad 6, and numpad 8. you can use numpad keys 1 and 7 to change between object navigation and screen review mode.
I hope that helps. Shaun
