Dear All!
I need for my work outlook 365, but they are some messages, that are not shown correctly, it shown, that they were in one line. Can somehow make more accessible outlook? Or can I accepts invitations, which were sent from outlook with thunderbird? Thanks! Lali

Lali, is your work running an exchange server? If so, you absolutely can do this with Thunderbird. There is an add-on called Exquilla, that will let Thunderbird communicate flawlessly with an exchange server. I know this, because I use it. I am the biggest outlook hater in the world! Sorry to those who love it. If you have anymore questions, feel free to drop me an email.

When it comes to the NVDA and outlook versus hating something. Those who hates something, keep it for yourself, as it is a personal preference when comes to using something. Sadly, Using office 365 accounts in thunderbird can be done with the paid addon called Sova. It supports exchange and never office 365 accounts. That's because I moved from thunderbird to outlook. My university e-mail is also a office 365 mailbox. That's why I've moved to outlook The problem with links rendered in on line is the e-mail renderer. Best, Zvonimir

Whether one likes Outlook (any version) or not, it is without question the most widely used email client in business settings (and plenty of homes, too) and the best supported by every screen reader in existence. I don't use Outlook or any email client as a daily driver, but I have not experienced any issues with Outlook as far as rendering messages correctly, and I test with it frequently when it comes to questions asked on this group and a couple of others. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 20H2, Build 19042 The depths of denial one can be pushed to by outside forces of disapproval can make you not even recognize yourself to yourself. ~ Brian Vogel

Can you tab to any links for except and decline for invites? I've not yet

had to accept, or decline invites yet in outlook 365. I would suggest looking at Microsoft office support for your answer in case this is not nvda related, which it sounds like it is not.

I wouldn't assume it’s the e-mail renderer. Web sites sometimes have more than one link on a line. The way to change the display of links is to turn off use screen layout where supported.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Open browse mode settings with NVDA key control b. Tab to use screen layout where supported. It’s a check box. Uncheck it with the space bar. Press enter. Now you will see every linkk displayed on its own line, and you will also see that on web pages where you may have seen more than one link on a line. I have said before that use screen layout should be off by default but there is no interest. Gene

Brian,

I'm actually with Gene on this one. For me, this is much like Numpad Nav Mode, which is currently an add-on, and the only add-on I have installed with NVDA at this point. For those coming from other screen readers, the behavior NVDA displays when screen layout is on may throw some people off. It definitely was strange to me when I first encountered it, having used System Access for about a year at that point and JAWS at school before then. I probably should use K to navigate by link more than I do, but many times I either tab to it or use the elements list.

Gene, NVDA key plus v acts as a toggle for screen view.

I dun no, for me I am now used to how the page looks. Don’t ne need to get used to saying it’s on this line, not every link on a separate line? I find myself coding that way which is incorrect. It should IMHO be off by default and the user can turn it on if they so choose. I always hated links on separate lines even way back in 2002 when I started using jaws.

Since it is common to tab through links and controls or move by line, moving by link

using k is not necessarily convenient. I use k at times when tabbing doesn't work well on a page for some reason. But I often want to either tab or down arrow. I don't necessarily want to just see links. I may want to see what is around the links. Gene

Bob,
Again, I'm not questioning anyone's personal preferences, just trying to get perspectives. And I thank you for yours. I guess I'm "just the opposite" in terms of how I learned and how I approach things, regardless of screen reader. I love the display elements options, regardless of specific implementation, as a way of both "cutting through the crap" and getting through certain types of content in the fastest (read: most efficient, in context) way possible. But there are times where actual page layout is important. The concept of the virtual cursor took me a very long time to wrap my head around, and I still prefer to use what NVDA calls Focus Highlight, or the equivalent in other screen readers, so that where I think I am and where I actually am is obvious to me. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 20H2, Build 19042 The depths of denial one can be pushed to by outside forces of disapproval can make you not even recognize yourself to yourself. ~ Brian Vogel

Hi everyone:

If anyone figures out how to get Outlook to open without landing in the day to file, I’d sure appreciate it. I’ve been fighting with it since I put office 365 on my computer. If I sighted person takes it out of the data box by hitting the X that doesn’t show up on our screen readers, as soon as I move it to read the mail, it’s back in the day to file ideas anyway? Thanks in advance.

Did you set your data file as default? See account info, account name, data files for more information. Best you subscribe to the office accessibility list. Search for it on groups.io or search this list as someone here posted it, I'm sure.
