Smarter Playlists web app with drag and drop NVDA addon
From my brief look at the site, and with no demos, I really could not figure out how one manipulated "blocks."
That being said, if in a given context the movement of a "block" is constrained to left/right or up/down the real mouse can be used even without sight if you're willing to try that out. Strict horizontal movement or vertical movement allows for "sloppy" mouse movement and still gets the job done. I have grown to hate emulated mouse commands, regardless of the screen reader. They just don't work as they should on many occasions. -- It used to be understood that if you published and profited from a mass media platform you should also be responsible for its content. That idea is nowadays considered quaintly archaic. There is no real accountability, and almost limitless ability to post any kind of ridiculous and scurrilous nonsense. God help us. ~ Ross Goldbaum, Letter to the New York Times, Regulating Media: It’s Now Seen as a Quaint Idea, November 13, 2022 |

Yeah, I knew about some of those. Dragging and dropping components determines the flow of the program though. I assumed that connecting components to each other would eliminate the need for drag and drop, but the program won't run despite this since it doesn't recognize the order the components are in. I've asked around and am getting help and maybe some additional keyboard shortcuts can be added to move the components around in the builder. NVDA's locking the mouse and routing the mouse to where I want to drop doesn't work, I thought that it may have. Thanks.

Are there any keyboard shortcuts?Yes. Here's the set:
The above really isn't about NVDA, but it may take the entire need for drag and drop out of the picture. -- It used to be understood that if you published and profited from a mass media platform you should also be responsible for its content.

Hi all, Has anyone used the Smarter Playlists web app with the new drag and drop NVDA addon? I haven't got the addon to work in general so I don't know what practical use it has. I'm curious if it could be done. This app is basically a way to make smart playlist like on iTunes for Spotify, but way better. |
