NVDA to not read columns and rows in webpages

Saylor Cooper
 

Hello, I’m trying to figure out how to get NVDA to stop reading columns and rows especially on webpages whenever I don’t need that information. Thanks.

You have to go settings, page format, and uncheck columns and rows.
This page format section of settings has a huge selection of items to choose from; it is worth reviewing more than once to get things tuned the way you like.

Hi Saylor, I think you're referring to the reading of tables. You need to go to document formatting settings (NVDA control D), tab a bunch of times, and uncheck "row and column headers" or any of the other table reading settings. Hope this helps.

My bad, it should read "document format" not page format.

First create a profile and then make the changes...

That way the changes will affect only what you want...
