reading status bar

Don H
Running latest NVDA and Win 10. In the NVDA documentation it says that NVDA key and the end key reads the status bar. Does not do it for me. What am I doing wrong?

What program or programs are you trying to read the
status line in? Increasingly, programs don't have status
lines.

NVDA shift end is what you want.

Let's clarify! 1 - The command to read the status bar is: Desktop layout - NVDA+End Laptop layout - NVDA+Shift+End 2 - The End key is the one found on the six-pad between the letters and numeric keyboard, normally above the arrow keys.

Are you sure you're not hitting the NVDA key and 1 on the numpad? That will say "no previous review mode". NVDA end is the right command for status.

Oh! There's your problem! Don't use the end key on
the numpad. You need to be using the end key on the 6pack.

I can confirm that I, too, can no longer get NVDA to read the status line in both MS Word 2013 and the latest updated versions of Thunderbird. I am using the following version of NVDA: NonVisual Desktop Access (NVDA) Version: next-14124,08a2b888 But the inability to read these status lines started some snapshots back already, can't remember exactly when. In Thunderbird when I give the command to read the status line, NVDA just says: "blank". In MS Word it says: "Navigation". I have tried this in both Object Review mode and Screen Review mode with exactly the same results. In both cases the screen is maximised. Kind regards Christo

I always run the latest snapshots of NVDA, so am on the most current one. I'm not able to reproduce your described issue with the status line. It works correctly in MS Word, Outlook and Thunderbird. Where the status line still is a problem, and actually has been since I moved to Windows 10, is the status line hotkey simply reporting, "No status line found," in File Manager. Yes, I know there are ways with review cursor to find the info on the status bar, but I believe it's a reasonable expectation to have this working correctly in File Manager. Windows 10 has been around long enough now, and this does actually work fine with commercial screen readers. BTW, as for Office I'm using 365. Jacques

Although I am not a member of the braille committee, here is my cent's worth on the matter of diacritics. Initially I thought that we, as Afrikaans readers, were lucky to have continued with the old diacritic symbols. I still don't mind using them, but I echo your sentiments, let's keep it simple, or rather universal. Use the diacritic symbols as designed by the UEBC committee. Regards Your Namesake

Sometimes the status line works and sometimes it just says, "no status line found" or it gives me the wrong info in word. Sometimes it helps to rout the review cursor. However, it would be nice if the status line would be read correctly every time and the same things would be read with each use, such as the current page in Ms Word. I am using Office 2016, NVDA 2017.2 and Windows 10 Creators Update. Kind regards

Does it make any difference if you check to make
sure you are using object navigation? At times, being in screen navigation
causes things not to work properly so I advise people that, after they finish
using screen review, they should always switch to the default object navigation
before continuing.

Yes one of the things affected by this is the read all but leave the cursor where it is, ie keypad plus. If screen review is on all sorts of odd things happen.
