bridge is yes. The answer to your second question is always the latest version. I'm running LibreOffice 4.10, and I'm having no major issues. It is perfectly accessible.

Yeah, 15.4 worked good with iTunes, so I don't know if is iTunes or 2016.1.
I wonder if there's any chance of a fix before 2016.2 comes out.

toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
tips on how to make it work better with NVDA. Thus far i have disabled use java features and enabled use beta features. not sure if that is a good thing or not but it seemed to make NVDA work a bit better with it. Issues i have been getting include: i was trying to set a password to a document and when i went into settings/security and tried to find the add a password button. NVDA would not tab around the dialog. i don't even know how i got it to find the button but i did. when i set the password i selected OK and it took me back to the settings dialog where again i could not tab around to the OK button. as far as i know it didn't add my password to the file and haven't found a way to do it. another problem is when i put a misspelled word and i correct it with the applications key. NVDA doesn't seem to know where it is at and i have to pull up the start menu and go back to the libre Office to be able to keep editing my document. happens also in excel sheets. any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated

Hey Dan,
What other screen readers do you have? I have NVDA and System Access installed on my computer. I could install JAWS, but I wasn't sure how much better it would work with iTunes. Of the two, NVDA is more reliable. I just tried to use System Access a few minutes ago and it cut out after only a few minutes. Thanks Chris

Hi
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
If you mean you want nvda to start on startup when windows does and you are using a installed version have a look under the general settings part of NVDA. Just in cast you don't know how to start NVDA when it is not running use the CTRL + ALT + the letter N To get into the preferences part of NVDA where you can makie changes etc use the NVDA key + the letter N To quit your copy of NVDA use the NVDA key + the letter Q Where I refer to the NVDA key this is a modifier key and can be either the insert key, the extended insert key or the capslock key, so one of these keys will be used say to turn off NVDA for example insert key + the letter Q If you go into the preferences section of NVDA, to get there use the NVDA key + the letter N. You may have to arrow down for it to say prefences , thenyou will have to arrow right to general settings, press the enter key. Inside of there will be where you find it. Make sure it is checked to start nVDA when windows does, plus and the one below it should be checked as well. Hope this helps. Gene nz

Re: NVDA2016.1 questions

Hi
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
A while ago I put together different ways on how to start NVDA with a USB stick and or a CD version. Any files that were needed are there as well. A few years back Microsoft disabled the autoplay menu so the way it used to be started like that will not do it, because the autoplay menu was disabled. You have to enable the autoplay menu for it to work. I know it works on the CD version but ca not remember for the USB version, I would have to check. I will have a look later on today on my windows 10 machine and see if it still works with the autoplay menu when the USB stick is plugged in. Any how there are other ways of starting NVDA up there if you want to check them out. The link to this page is http://accessibilitycentral.net/nvda%20audio%20tutorials.html You can jump down quickly to the section by using the letter H in NVDA. Look for the section to do with USB stick and CD. Hope this helps. Gene nz

Re: NVDA2016.1 doesn't read Emoticons with Vocalizer nor
Gene
Yes. I made a mistake when giving the
command. I consider the ability to change settings while not having them
kept permanently to be an important advantage NVDA has over some
screen-readers. It lets you experiment and immediately go back to previous
settings if desired. It also lets you change one or more settings you
might want to change for a specific task, then immediately change back.
The command to revert to previous settings is NVDA control r. This can
only be done if you haven't permanently saved the changes. I often like to
speed up reading at times, then revert, with one command, to my usual speed
settings.

You may change one or more settings to accomplish a specific task or to try a different voice and you may intend them to be experimental. There is such a thing as too much automation. I believe that making permanent changes in a program should be intentional, not automatic. And you can save settings very easily. You don't even have to use the menus.

I don't know how you turn off the preview pane in
Windows 10 but instead of waiting to see what happens, just turn it off if it's
on. In Windows 7 the preview pane causes crashes.
