Re: Question on Chrome, Re: [nvda] Can we pass graphics while navigating web pages using NVDA?
The "three dots" menu is the Chrome Menu button, hit ALT and you have focus on it. Hit either Enter or Down Arrow and it opens.
If you ever hear the description of either the "three dots" or "hamburger stack" menu or menu key, you can be virtually certain it's the browser's main menu key and that ALT will throw focus to it. In the case of Firefox, though, ALT still brings up the old menu structure, which gives you access via a different route to all of the things that the Firefox main menu key (hamburger stack type, in this case) does. -- Brian - Windows 10 Home, 64-Bit, Version 1809, Build 17763 A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep. ~ Saul Bellow, To Jerusalem and Back

Re: subject keeps repeating when I hit enter on a message in thunderbird
Gene
You are issuing an unnecessary command. Every
command you issue silences previous speech and also carries out the
command. All you have to do is issue one command, read to end. It
will silence any current speech and begin reading to end. You only have to
use control to silence speech when you want to silence speech and have no other
action taken.
It does this because every command silences speech
but control by itself never does anything else, as a standard practice in
Windows.
This is important to know for convenience and
efficiency. If you are reading and want the current line repeated, if you
are still on that line, just using read current line will both stop current
speech and read the current line. You don't have to use control
first. That is another example of gaining efficiency and removing an
inconvenience.

The preview pane is disabled and the subject line startedrepeating itself again. I don't know why this behavior is persisting.

Sorry; I know this probably isn't helpful, to hear that my thunderbird isn't repeatedly reading me the subject lines of emails, but I thought I'd let you know I'm not experiencing the same issue here.

Re: Telegram
I will never use that program because you don't buy it from the the play store, hence I don't trust the devs. They did give a reason as to why they cannot put it in the play store but I have now forgotten it. Take care

Re: Dragon UI hanging with NVDA
I don't use the software. But I've ben hearing complaints up to I believe it was last year 2018 by someone who is deaf blind. Dragin hangs on their windows using nvda, and hangs on their mac using voiceover, but it does not hang when using any screen readers and only their braille display, if I understand them correctly.

I think possibly the browser might just be too much work for him/most single individuals to take on.
There is a pretty big demand for BBC iPlayer service; I think people in the uSA can take advantage as well.

On his blog I see him updating his BBC Iplayer software a lot more than his calendar, podcastcher, clock, and browser. I don't blame him because he's only trying to keep up with a corperation's API. But, well, maybe it's time to scrap those BBC programs? I'm in the USA so have no clue how helpful his BBC software is, though.

Re: Telegram
Mallard
Hello there,

Yes, I use Telelight in Android, which is a great app developed by people at the University of Tabriz, in Iran. I'll never be grateful enough to those devs for giving such a great solution, while the devs of the actual Telegram app treated our requests for accessibility with contempt, to say the least... They actually replied to me using very strong language when I first contacted them at the end of 2013, when the app had just been released... Never seen anything like that! The website is ok with NVDA as well, as far as I could see, but I haven't gone into that too much, having a very good solution on my phone. Ciao, Ollie

I don't have Windows 10. But if you type
system restore in the start menu search field, find the program and run it, if
system restore is off, you will be told. you can check if System Restore
is on by running it in any version of Windows that has it. Just how you
turn it on, I'll let others explain who have Windows 10.

wrote Mark about some groups.io changes.
While Mark is busy making the IOS and Android app
for this website, I told him about a bunch of unlabeled edit
fields in the wikipedia sections of groups, the members sections
of groups, and the, add an event, to Calendar's in groups.
Although, I'm probably one of a few who uses the site to it's
fullest, like the RSS feed integration for groups and the like.
Anyway, if any of you use the website, he said he would fix the
labels today. I've also been consulting him on his mobile apps
he's designing to manage groups on his website. He's really
trying, but it's just one guy! So if the apps are not as
accessible as you would like after launch, be nice. Obviously.

Re: no pop up announcements
On my side I was able to create a new table of Monopoly and also
other games and NVDA told me everything I needed to know to set the
table properly according to my likes.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Have you tried restarting Playroom? If so, and if it doesn't get things back to normality, how about restarting NVDA itself? If it's still showing no results, how about restarting with add-ons disabled? I'd suggest that you'd be using the client minimized, however I did it and even so NVDA reads all correctly.

If you have QuintC’s playroom just go through the steps of creating a game. For example when creating a monopoly game it normally asks if you wish to use the default options. For me I only hear ‘yes’. I have to move to the history window to find out what I am yessing to.
