Subject: [nvda] Can I Route Mouse Pointer to Browse Mode
Cursor? Hello,
I'm a new user of NVDA so I'm in the mist of learning about it. Was using JAWS exclusively for the past 15+ years.
I've always been better at learning something when getting a program to do something specific to my needs.
Here's the scenario.
I'm able to navigate to a clickable DHTML element on a web page while in Browse Mode. It's contained within a table (Row 1, column 6.) I located this element first by simply using the down arrow key. Confirmed the exact cell location by using the [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[Right Arrow] key combination.
Now when I try using the Review cursor to locate the same clickable DHTML element, it doesn't see it at all. It simply says the word "Blank" while over it.
The special route mouse function ([Insert]+[/ on numpad]) only works with the review cursor. Is there a way of having the route function work for the Browse mode cursor too?
Even though I'm able to activate that clickable element from within Browse mode by hitting the [Enter] key, there might come a time that I want the mouse pointer to left or right click it instead.
Some elements like this even bring up a sub menu when you mouse over them too.
Any ideas how to approach my query?
Is it possible to create a route mouse pointer to browse mode cursor add-on for NVDA?
How about having the ability to assign a text label to an element visible in browse mode only, so you can find it easily with the review cursor and perform functions on it?
Hope I'm making sense to someone out there LOL!
Thanks for any suggestions.

Lite version of Outlook.com
Hi, Is there a way to force Outlook.com to redirect me to the lite version on Firefox? I tried with IE8 in a Windows XP virtual machine and it defaults to the lite version, and from my tests appears to be very accessible so I wonder whether is there a way to force Outlook.com to redirect me to the lite version on Firefox, latest version on my Windows 7 X64 desktop. The full version of Outlook.com is slow and not very accessible with either Jaws or NVDA.

No it even does this if the screensave is off from what I've found. It might be a nice thing to see if one imports the exe notepad file from xp to 10 and run it from another place to see if it still does it. Certainly Wordpad from XP seems to be better than the 10 native one as I've tried it.For one thing, no ribbon menus....

Funny you should mention this, yes, and it seems to have something to do with either the encoding of the file or notepad itself on windows 10. It is not doing it all the time though, and hence might be a little tricky to pin down.

Seriously though, if a program keeps on wanting to sell you stuff or download other bits upgrade to a paid version by putting up alerts every so often or adding pop ups you cannot turn off or any variation on these themes it is using adverts to promote either its own stuff of make money by selling the advert space. In theory I have no problem with adverts, but often they tend to make otherwise accessible web sites or programs just cluttered and hard to use efficiently. This is one of the things I hat about windows 10, which keeps on plugging Microsoft office products for no good reason while its just sitting there.

Hey all,
I know this should have ben sent to the add on list, but I forgot the

I hope it is okay to make requests for add ons. I was wondering if

isn’t reading the files, and the volume settings.

Re: getting the "to protect your privacy" message even before opening a message
Travis Siegel <tsiegel@...>
I don't actually know the difference as thunderbird refers to it, but my guess would be that simple html simply ignores all javascript, and interprets the html coding only. It's a lot harder to get malicious content into an html only file than it is if you have javascript, style sheets, and other junk, so that's why they consider plain html to be safe, which it is, at least until someone clicks on a malware link, and downloads the thing to the computer, but folks are supposed to know better than to do that, so it definitely affords some protection, albeit not 100 percent, you can never protect folks from themselves.

So, by definition what exactly is non simple html anyway? Is it that it can in fact automatically pick up referenced content not actually present in the email.If it is then I'd suggest this is pretty dangerous for many reasons, and hence the warning.

Re: Reading tabs on web page

I should add that what I said is generally
true. But in the case of the layout table setting, I don't know if it
changes the way NVDA works when in a layout table or if it just announces when
you are entering one and perhaps leaving one. I have assumed that it only
announces that you are entering and perhaps leaving a table and, aside from
that, has no effect. However, my assumption may be wrong. I started
to thing about that after seeing Jacob's message. Though I doubt I am
wrong, I wrote to say that I may be and to get this clarified.

All these settings do is determine whether NVDA
announces that you are on or entering something. They have nothing to do
with whether the thing is read or can be worked with. In other words, if
you are entering a table, you will hear table if this setting is on. If
you have the announce links setting checked or the announce heading setting
checked, you will hear link announced when you read a link or heading announced
when you are at a heading. If these settings are unchecked, the item will
still be read and can be worked with exactly as before. The difference is
that you won't hear heading announced or link announced or table
announced. the thing will just be read.

Oh, ok.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
That setting tells NVDA not to ignore tables without column/row headers that are generally just used to implement layout, but, are not really data tables as such. And, sounds like they're using forms of style sheeting to arrange text on the page, as opposed to implementing actual layout structure?
