Hi all. I've noticed this for a couple of versions of both NVDA and Windows 10. When I switch windows with alt-tab, it seems like NVDA doesn't get full focus. For example, suppose I'm listening to a t

What does it do? I mean I accept that it's solved the problem for you, but why?

Cool. But what are the differences, do you know? I mean, if it weren't for this issue, I'd have no idea that they changed anything. It appears, on the surface, to work exactly as it always has.

Have you gotten sending files to work in Skype on Windows 10? If so, how? I'm fairly sure the keystroke is supposed to be shift-ctrl-f to send a file but I've never gotten it to work, it does somethin

Pretty sure Skype for Win. 10 doesn't have menus. I'm not talking about Skype 8, but Skype for Win. 10. It mostly works, though it's kind of slow, but I haven't gotten sending files to work from it ye

So question about the new Skype, and I think this should apply for 8 or the version in Windows 10. One of the things I really like about Skype classic is having conversations in separate windows. This

Oh cool! Thanks Joseph. I'll still have to run skype to check periodically, but at least it's fairly easy once it's open.

So I listened to a very nice podcast about one of the new Narrator features on the Insiders build, the start guide. I fired up Narrator, just to see what it was like. Opened Firefox, and Narrator pret

Got any tips then? As an example, if I open up Skype, and pick a conversation, sometimes it thrashes around with it's messaging model or whatever until it settles down. Then I have to tab to the actua

Honestly, I'm not knocking them for trying. I don't see myself switching from NVDA even if Narrator gets to be a viable screen reader. But we should want it to be and probably get familiar with it, be

Install the snapshot as a portable copy. Then just exit regular NVDA and switch to it whenever you want to do development or testing.

Hi all. Two quick questions about Skype UWP with NVDA. 1. How can I see when a message was sent? If I highlight a message with the arrow keys and use NVDA-numpad 2 and then I think object nav to the r

Well for me, I don't care about the offensiveness so much. What I care about is stuff like: Last night I was using elocrash with Skum from Microslop and I tried with the shark and Microslop Notreader

Agreed. I almost never use the lists, I can't remember when the last time was that I used one, though I probably did once. Let's see, headings, sometimes landmarks if I remember them, tab, and arrows,

I know somebody mentioned this problem the other week, or something similar, but I missed the answer and now I'm having it. I'm using the Skype UWP app. That part's fine. However, it will pop up notif

Yep! It's why I tend to just look around the page. I forgot to mention I do use some of the other quick navigation keys, e.g. 'e' for the next edit field. Usually if somebody tells me to hit the color

I'm going to give this example with Mail, but this will work for any app, like the Windows 10 version of Skype, for example. Also, I don't use Mail so I don't know if it's just called Mail or Windows

Yes. Pretty sure it's in options but I forget where. I'm pretty sure it's called something like "show typing notification". I don't have 7 installed anymore because I'm preparing for the switch and I

Yes. You want document formatting under settings, there are check boxes for what gets reported, and links is one of them. There are also headings and a number of other things. You can turn all of them

I get 403 forbidden when I click that link.
