Extra stuff announced
Howard Traxler <howard@...>
GM all,
When I'm looking at a list of files in a folder, as I go down the list, NVDA interjects extra words in addition to what's on the line. These must be column headers or something? Someone told me, a long time ago, where in NVDA I can go to turn that off. Very sorry I didn't save that note or write it down somewhere. Could someone please tell me again? I'll save it this time. Thank you. Howard |

What sort of extra words? You may be able to
change this in NVDA but it may be a change in Windows such as from details to
list.

This might be what you are looking for. Open nvda menu, open preferences, go down to Object Presentation tab into there and look for Report Object Description and uncheck it and ok out of there to save. Hope that does what you want.

Tool tips are they not. the little extras that pop up as you go down a list etc. I like them, and can just hit control to stop them. Its faster than turning them off and then wanting them again.

I looked up the subject in the manual. It was
a brilliant case of tautology and told me nothing. Here is the
quote:
Report Object descriptions
Uncheck this checkbox if you don't wish to have the description reported along with objects. If someone would describe what
information is included in the term "description," which should also be done in
the manual in that entry, it would be illuminating.
