how to access gmail settings


 

Once you're logged in to your Gmail account, use NVDA's search function (NVDA Key+Ctrl+F) and enter "Settings" as your search string.  The first thing it finds is the Settings button, which is collapsed and places focus on it.  When you activate the button it brings up a dropdown list/menu and "Settings" is one of the entries.  That's the entry you should activate to get to all the settings you can tweak for Gmail, and there are a lot of those.

I worry a lot. . . I worry that no matter how cynical you become it's never enough to keep up.

Standard.  Unless someone tells me they're using a view that's not standard I answer based on what is.

It's actually fairly hard to get to now.  The settings link that you're finding is for hangouts as you said.  There is a settings "button", which I found easiest to get to by going to the main content landmark then shift+tabbing about 5 times.  That opens a drop down list of options, most of which are irrelevant (display and theme options), help is also in there and settings.

The easier way to get to settings is from the link:

https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#settings/general

If you have more than one GMail account open, the 0 in that link is the first one, 1 for the next one and so on.

Not ideal, but it will get you there for now.

Regards

Quentin.
