Good Morning Joseph:  I just check the about field of my NVDA application and I have February 1 but have new updates to down load and install.  Considering it the 20th of November, what should I do?

Dave

Hi,

You’ll have to redefine it.

Cheers,

Joseph

Hi Joseph,

I use the screen curtain addon and defined ALT+Shift+s to trigger it. Will that shorcut still function when screen curtain is incorporated into NVDA 2019.3 or will I need to redefine it?

Thanks :)

Dear NVDA community,



First, thank you to everyone who came to NVDACon 2019. A special thank
you to everyone who showed up to an informal add-on users meeting for
my add-ons.



As part of the user meeting, a number of important announcements were
made,
including:



* NVDA 2019.3 compatibility: almost all of my add-ons are compatible -
the lone exception is Screen Curtain, as the functionality is now part
of NVDA 2019.3. This add-on will be no more the day NVDA 2019.3 stable
version is released to the public.
* Add-on update releases: in the next few weeks, various add-ons will
be updated to require NVDA 2019.3. This will be done in waves:
starting with development snapshots for StationPlaylist and Windows 10
App Essentials on November 19, followed by more add-ons once NVDA
2019.3 stable version is released, ending with Add-on Updater in
February 2020.
* No going back after installing Python 3 strict add-ons: after
installing any add-on that requires NVDA 2019.3 (from my collection),
there is no going back. In particular, StationPlaylist add-on uses
parts of Python
3 that isn't backwards compatible, so going back to an earlier version
will not be possible (nor recommended).
* Several add-ons are leaving my nest: by February 1, 2020, I'll be
handing over the following add-ons to the community for further
maintenance:
Easy Table Navigator, Golden Cursor, ObjPad, SystrayList. For Golden
Cursor and SystrayList, version 4.0 is on its way, requiring NVDA 2019.3.
* Windows 10 App Essentials and October 2018 Update: the last Windows
10 App Essentials release to support Windows 10 October 2018 Update
(Version
1809) will be 20.01.x.



Special notice for StationPlaylist and Windows 10 App Essentials
snapshot
users: if you are using NVDA 2019.2.1 or earlier, you would have
received a notice about requiring NVDA 2019.3 from November 20, 2019
onwards. This will indeed happen - a snapshot destined for November
19th will require NVDA
2019.3 in any form, which will be enforced on November 20, 2019.



Thank you.

Cheers,

Joseph
