This may be such an isolated instance that it isn't worth worrying about. The spellchecker has shortcut letters, the options page, which mimics a dialog in many places, has shortcut letters in a lot o

I've been using Thunderbird more over the last number of days and I realized that some of the dialogs aren't properly structured in the following regard: When a button is announced, the shortcut lette

That is performing the equivalent action of stopping repetition and causing the message body to be read. I don't use skim mode and I don't know the specifics of what it reads with different commands.

You can do that if the links are written out. You can't if the links say something like click here. Gene

Don't you get repetition if you just press enter? I don't use JAWS but if I press enter and do nothing else, I get a number of repetitions of the subject line. Gene

You shouldn't have to go to the top of the message. Just press enter to open it, wait a moment, then issue the read to end command. Gene

The only way I can stop the time from being displayed in the headers is to not have the date displayed. You may well have messages organized by date. I doubt turning this off would work because you sa

I don't know why you hear that. I don't. Once you open a message, wait a moment, then use the read to end command. That should cause the message body to be read and interrupt or avoid unnecessary spee

I wonder if you can use the JAWS mouseover command to find and move to the line where the address is shown. But if you are going to do that, you might as well use the context menu with the shortcut ke

I just found out something useful if the address appears in the status line of the program you are using and it is in the place where NVDA sees it. If you issue the read status line command three time

But since so many add-ons use their own commands, it would be good to include that information somewhere. Gene

I just tried this in Thunderbird. Moving the mouse to the link isn't necessary. Just moving to the link when reading the message as HTML or as simple HTML, a safer way to read mail in Thunderbird, cau

Does Outlook have a status line? Windows Live Mail doesn't and Thunderbird does. I'll play withit in Thunderbird and see what happens. Gene

It might be possible, but I don't know how difficult it would be. The way a sighted person would usually see the underlying link is to hover the mouse over it. You would need something to perform that

Are you asking how to see the underlying address for something that might say, for example, click here as a link? If you are on the link and open the context menu, if your e-mail program has this feat

Meantime, here is how you can tell which files are selected using NVDA. After you select the files, hold control and go backk to the first one you selected. You can go farther up if you want, just kee

The find command is one of the most underused and most powerful ways of web page navigation. Often, four letters is adequate to allow you to find something on the first search or on repeating the sear

I don't know what Windows 10 does, Windows 7 displays a status line you can read that tells you the number of files selected. As I recall, the NVDA command to read what is selected only applies to tex
