Re: nvda ocr
hello.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
do you use windows ten? if so, windows ten has internal ocr functionality that nvda developers added support for it since nvda version 2017.3. if you use any other windows version that has not internal ocr capability, you should install ocr addon.

nvda ocr
Aschalew Byness
Hi lovely guys
I always try to have nvda recognize image or scanned documents with insert+r. I don't get any result though. but, in jaws, when I press insert + space, o, c, I hear a kind of bip sound to let me know that the recognition is in process. it also lets me know when it finishes recognizing the document. I don't get the same in nvda although I press insert +r. it is dead silence. does this nvda OCR recognition really work.

Re: Crashes in Word and Outlook
Roberto Perez
You will be able to work, but not efficiently. If you are working with someone in a word document, for example, having to copy over to Notepad just to edit something means you will end up loosing the formatting and having to work extra. I sometimes go around the issue by simply turning on Narrator to finish what I am doing after NVDA crashes but the system often becomes unstable and rebooting is the only option.

Re: SentenceNav addon doesn't work properly in Notepad++
For any Add-On where the developer wishes to make themselves known, the easiest way to get their contact information is in NVDA Add-Ons Manager.
Hit NVDA+N,T,A,Enter. Add-Ons Manager Opens. Navigate to the Add-On for which you need to contact the Author. The Author is the last column, and virtually always includes the e-mail address. You can also activate the About Add-On button for that add-on and the same information is presented as part of the about dialog text. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 1909, Build 18363 Science has become just another voice in the room; it has lost its platform.

Re: speaking commands
Gene
JAWS has the same sort of abilities working in What it calls frames. If you issue a defined command in a frame, you can designate that all sorts of actions follow and the order in which they occur.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
I have never seen an explanation of why NVDA doesn't have such a system. There may be technical reasons but NVDA will never meet many users' needs as well as JAWS unless it has the ability for user definable functions of this sort. There are many times when more advanced users or those working with users need to define such behaviors and can't. While NVDA meets a lot of users' needs now, this is a serious deficiency. Gene

Re: interested in website where community can work together to build a list of accessible programs?
This is something that is often done, for various reasons, in this case the reason would be accessibility. And since, when it comes to accessibility, things have a tendency to "go both ways," previously inaccessible becoming accessible and vice versa, it could be useful if it gained traction and were maintained. Mr. Kingett's statement is echoed by myself in that it goes without saying that all software must be 100% legal. There has already been one group formerly hosted on Groups.io that got shut down because the majority of their traffic was the discussion of cracked software.
That being said, this topic is not specifically about NVDA at all. If any further discussion is desired, please start a separate topic on the Chat Subgroup. This topic is now locked. ------------------------ NVDA Chat Subgroup Addresses

Re: interested in website where community can work together to build a list of accessible programs?
Would be a lot better than that github wiki page. As long as it's legal, I'll take part in it. No posting cracked software, etc.

Christopher Pross
Hi huys,
a simple question, would you use a website, which allows you to post a program, which is accessible and rate other posts from other users? This programs would be categoriesed and would have a download link and so on. Or do you don't like such a concept?

Re: nvda add-on for internet download manager
You're using the wrong program. Use Pontes Media Downloader. http://www.pontes.ro/en/scripts/
