Hi all,

I am trying to get some info from a field on the page but it says to use the mouse to view. I have looked at the object navigation methods after the suggestion on another list but I still can't figure this one out.

If there are any hams on this list who use the qrz.com site and know how to get the email address of someone on qrz.com using NVDA I sure would appreciate some help.

Thanks.

NVDA key + numpad divide/slash key:

Moves the mouse pointer to the current navigator object

Not sure that will help on all webpages, but, HTH

Hi Dan

With the golden cursor add on you can control the mouse with the arrow keys and do a few extras.

I appreciate all the suggestions.  However, how does  one do this using a laptop?  Your keystroke suggestions are for a desktop layout not a laptop.

I have searched through the NVDA help and can find nothing about moving the screen cursor or system cursor to the currently focused object.

Maybe this can't be done on a laptop?

Thanks.

Hi Dan,

I have answered this extensively on Blind Hams.

Hi!

The laptop commands are the following:

NVDA+back space, will rout the review cursor to the system focus!

Shift+NVDA+back space will rout the system focus to the review cursor

The NVDA guide lists the laptop equivalent for the desktop equivalent!

Have a great one!

Ok, I finally got back to this.  I tried all the suggestions given and it still didn't work.  I couldn't believe it was my system causing the problem so I decided to take a look in settings and make sure.

I made some changes that looked like they might affect the mouse tracking and other things and now it is working correctly.  In fact, I don't

 even have to take any direct actions, when I move the focus to that line on the page it automatically reports the email address of the contact.

I really should have made one change at a time and tested each but I didn't so I don't even now for certain which changes fixed the situation.  Shame on me. ;)

Thanks to all who provided some assistance.

The commands have nothing to do with what you want to do.  Don't assume you are wrong when something doesn't make sense. 

 

How did you search for the command?  I'd rather help you find it yourself than just give it since you may be better able to find other commands in future.  If you don't find a command, use less words.  In this case, you may have said route mouse.  If that doesn't find the command, just search for mouse.  After about seven repetitions of the search, NVDA key f3 to repeat the search, you'll find it.  If you have problems let us know.

 

I made some Gene
