Sile, there are a couple things you can do. The first is to switch to Narrator & register your Eloquence using that. If you can't or don't wish to, perhaps this will help: Press NVDA+control+s to get

Have you tried this w/object navigation?

I keep hearing this addon is useful for being able to move the mouse etc, & is indeed somewhat analogous to the Jaws cursor. Does anyone know of or have on their site a demo/tutorial on how this works

O, thank you so very much, Joseph! Going to get that immediately after pressing 'send'.

Sile, Paypal does the conversion from Australian dollars automatically & tells you how much in your currency that comes to. It really is not an issue.

Not really, Molly. Though there are some similarities, Jaws scripting is pretty much basically confined to an existing application, while NVDA addons can creat entirely new 1's, for example, the remot

Brian v. I could've been clearer in my explanation, perhaps. Jaws scripts, for the most part, are triggered by keystrokes in an application that are tied to the jaws script. So, for example, using Not

Troy, to read the most current user guide, please activate the NVDA menu (NVDA modifier + n) then h for help. You'll find a variety of current resources there.

Hi, Brian V. Once you've object navigated to a control, have you tried NVDA+shift+m (laptop) or NVDA+numpad-divide (desktop) to bring your mouse there? At that point hopefully you can do a left click

Be sure to always maximize the window, Brian V, but, having thus said, sometimes--indeed most of the time--that isn't always very helpful. It's a real pita when programs are like that. <bglists=blueyo

PS--you might wanna consider the Golden Cursor addon to see if you can save mouse hotspots for navigation. Obviously, since you're sighted, you yourself won't need that, but perhaps a student of yours

Janet, this is just a suggestion, but I'm wondering if it might not be more helpful--& more accurate--to simply access the NVDA menu, go to help, then go to the "command quick reference guide". There,

It goes w/o saying, except perhaps it doesn't--but please back up your dictionary files before porting them to a text editor. Hopefully that'll preserve them in the event things go ape-haywire.

Janet, the synth ring lets you go around to various settings in the speech synthesizer dialog. This is where you can get to your rate setting. So, mine started w/rate; a press gets me to pitch, anothe

What version of NVDA, Greg?

Boy, do I *ever* agree w/that! Same can be said for web browsers. Being blind sucks in that regard, & there are just no 2 ways about it, though I suspect sometimes sighted folks are forced to jump thr

sociohack, learning Braille is extremely helpful for what you want. You may not get good enough to read books, but that isn't what you want anyway. You just want to get good enough to read notes, etc,

Or you can check out Hadley School for the blind at: www.hadley.edu .

Just use the command line tool. I don't have time to get the link now, but, if you can't find it on your own (it's in the user guide), then I can look for it later, though my response time will not be
