Brian,
Thank you so much.
For me, this topic will continue only and only on the chat subgroup
:)
Em 12/04/2019 11:45, Brian Vogel disse:
Marcio,
Done! [If my choice doesn't accurately reflect what
you were looking for, please let me know].
You also kindly created a parallel topic on the Chat
Subgroup, which had the same original title, and now has the same
updated title. Since this is all about Firefox, I'd ask for
follow-ups on the Chat Subgroup topic, if at all possible.
And, again, the e-mail addresses for the Chat Subgroup
are:
We've been gaining subscribers over the last several days, and
have had a number of interesting topics, most regarding technical
issues outside NVDA, start flowing. I'd love to see that trend
continue.

To Brian V.,
Brian, please, can I or even you change the subject of this thread
so it will be according with what I meant? It's just a matter of
correcting the first word :)

Groups.Io disse:
Gene,
Actually the bug is described on my first message. And, from his
message, I assumed he'd know what it's about, but thanks for the
warning :)
Well, the bug is, basically now to have access to the options such
as General, Privacy and such using the arrow keys, you need first
of all to enable NVDA focus mode and tab a few times around the
screen before issuing the up/down arrow command.
Em 12/04/2019 11:13, Gene disse:
Brian doesn't know what the bug is. I suggest you write a
description of it as though you were submitting a report and
send it to him. As far as I know, the bug is that you have to
be in forms mode in order to see certain fields in options.
But I'm not sure if you are saying there is more to it.

Brian, would you do me this big favor and report it to the guys

I never reported a bug before and I'm afraid I'll not manage to
do it right now. So if you can, I'd appreciate it indeed :)

So basically then, the field is not focussed like
it is on google but is on the page. I wonder what the point of
changing the way search works was? Might worth reporting it on
the Firefox bug tracker or on nvda github in case a work
around is possible.

Subject: [nvda] Cuttie Mozilla seems to have changed (again)
the options' window
Hey folks,
So the subject speaks for itself.
Some of you may remember me from the other thread about the
add-ons'
section, isn't it?
Well, here we are again. Now, though, the situation is in
fact at least
a little bit better.
Our dear mozilla, on what I believe to be the latest
Firefox, changed in
a way the options' window, where we have general, privacy
and such.
At first, I was about to post here asking for a workaround
for this one,
but I found it myself.
The story is like that: being on said window, one can't, for
their life,
arrow through the options anymore. Well, at least it was
what I was getting.
Then, don't know why, but as a last resort I tried to play
with the
window using NVDA in focus mode.
Guess what? It worked!
In fact, I believe it worked because now in this very same
window you
have a search field where you can type in parts of what you
want to get,
for example "priva" for privacy. But, this field actually is
also a submenu!
No, you haven't read it wrong. It's a field and a submenu,
as NVDA
reports it.
I'll have to say, that's the first time I've seen something
like that.
Quite odd, if you ask me.
Well, all of this to say that, if you getting the same as I
got, then
justdo the NVDA focus mode thing or the equivalent on your
screen
reader, tab through the screen and then at some point you'll
be able to
arrow through the options like we are used to do.
Cheers,

hi. do you mean that firefox settings recently has accessibility issues like google chrome which uses material design and even many sighted users i read on the forums that are angry because of changes in settings? i really am not comfortable with chrome which i tested with different versions and automaticly focus mode becomes activated for me and in many cases, i even lose focus! and i should press tab multiple times to go to my previous position in settings!
