On a webpage, when I pressed the Down arrow once, NVDA just said: out of list out of list out of article out of article article heading level 1 Using the guide sound accessibility feature.
But JAWS just said: heading level 1 Using the guide sound accessibility feature.
So saddening that NVDA's irritating verbosity can't be controlled on webpages. Yet another forgotten NVDA issue.

@x0 @NikJov I think the biggest problem with that discussion (github.com/nvaccess/nvda/discu…) is that there are too many asks in one place. I just summarised and made a couple of suggestions if people want to create SPECIFIC issues for ONE thing. Amir's original comment at the start of this thread made me think he wanted not just "heading level 1" to read as "h1" but to simplify when you go into and out of a bunch of things at once. I think there's a different issue for that as well somewhere.

@x0 @NikJov I commented on that issue this morning - there are at least three seperate issues there which really need to be broken up into individual issues to make it clear which is which. Really only one of those is clear enough to make a proper issue out of currently (and I would have except it is the one about emojis and symbols which could be moved from symbol level none to all - but it doesn't list them). The others need more working out.

@NikJov @x0 Ok that is explained clearly, especially in the context of the link provided and how NVDA reads it. Do please create an issue for it. Although note that you likely will need to be clear on the benefits - as the original complaint in this thread is that NVDA is too verbose..... yet what Jaws speaks is nearly twice as long (39 compared to 22 words spoken), PLUS an extra five keystrokes.... If that works better for you that's great - but do be clear on that :)

Remember that JFW's verbosity can be easily skipped if you step out of all elements with a single key press if you skip the focused element or elements. So you don't have to listen to all of that. However, NVDA's verbosity is something which gets attached to the beginning of a speech sequence, and you can't silence it. You have to listen to lots of into and out of X stuff before hearing the contents of the newly focused element.

Sorry - I no longer have NVDA installed for further testing 😞. But as far as I can remember, under most circumstances I couldn't suppress the verbosity. Even pressing Enter on internal links would generate the long-windedness before reading the newly focused heading or element.
Just wish you and NVDA the best of luck as I'm done with the project.

@x0 And pressing NVDA+Up arrow is even faster than pressing down arrow 5 times. I still haven't heard any reasons why this doesn't work for you. I don't need to ask many NVDA users, I am asking one right now. If we follow the Jaws logic, how is it faster? How am I supposed to kno if I need to press down arrow a few times, or 6 times? I am much more likely to just skip the start of the article instead, and then have to go back up.
@x0

@NikJov Because, for whatever reason, maybe other NVDA or JAWS users can convey my point to you more efficiently. It's not just the issue of pressing Up/ Down. NVDA maintains its verbosity even when Up and Down aren't used. For instance, in the same Zoom H5 Studio tutorial whose link I sent earlier, look for the 2nd instance of the following internal link: Using as an audio interface
If you press Enter on the second instance of this internal link, NVDA says: out of article out of article out of article article heading level 1 Using as an audio interface.
Whereas JAWS just says: line 1813.

Quick navigation keys, also. I think the idea is that they want multiple nesting announcements to be suppressed somehow, or collapsed. Remember the clickable work? Maybe some elements should be given different precedents. I personally turned articles back off in reporting, and clickables are basically always off. Lists, though, are important. @NikJov @NVAccess

@x0 That's the thing though, articles are already off by default, so I don't understand any of it to be honest, you turned additional verbosity off, and then aren't happy with that additional verbosity. I don't deny that there is a valid issue here. It would be a lot better if NVDA took into account that you exited multiple same containers, so it would say, "Out of 3 articles", instead of, "Out of article" three times repeatedly.
@x0

@x0 @NikJov It is worth creating an issue for. What would also need to be taken into account would be that "out of article out of article, out of list, out of list" could be analysed and condensed to "out of 2 articles, out of 2 lists", but how would "Out of article, our of list, out of article, out of list" be treated? (And what if there were several elements between them in the utterance). Something to consider, but worth an issue, yes.
@x0 @Nikola Jović
in reply to NV Access

@NikJov I think in the case of interleave, since they do all end at the same point, they should be sorted first and then condensed. So out of article, out of list, out of article, out of list, would still be condensed to that. Yes I know it's no longer a faithful representation of the HTML, but it's much nicer to handle. For speech anyway. How does Braille do it, actually? Does it use abbreviated markers?

Sure, and the transparency is very much appreciated. However, what matters at the end of the day is the number of issues affecting a screen reader, or affecting a particular workflow. Honestly - and despite my own attraction towards open-source projects, JAWS is serving me more efficiently. Most of the NVDA issues I've reported to Github, or some of the ones others have reported, don't affect JAWS at all. Once NVAccess manages to employ a couple of full-time devs, I'll take another look at NVDA.

@x0 I'm not sure then why your first post links to an issue requesting lower verbosity levels, with the very first comment saying, "I really don't want my time wasted by hearing heading level x every single time I move by heading from story to story. I want to immediately hear the text of the headline." Since you need both articles and lists, it sounds like this issue wouldn't do anythig to resolve your need.

@x0 I understand your point perfectly, I already said that this is a valid issue, I simply asked what the issue you linked to has to do with it, it's a completely different matter requesting much lower verbosity levels than what you seem to be requesting. Anyway, as long as paying 1000 dollars is easier than one shortcut to skip the announcement, I'm also glad you are enjoying your workflow.
@x0

@NikJov OK good! Would be helpful to see if those issues exist already, if not sounds useful to create. Actually, there's a potential thing. Is that what that one setting report formatting changes after the cursor does? It reports font and whatnot *after* the current line, instead of before? Why does it cause a lag? Would it be the same here? Worth investigating with someone who knows about that setting. Also this new setting should perhaps respond differently to arrowing vs other, larger forms of navigation. Maybe a combo box that's like, report container exits: always first. After content when navigating. Always after content.

@NikJov I don't think what I raised is different from what the linked issue, and the vote on the page, talks about. At any event, I don't pay for JAWS. My company does, and, BTW, that money or a large portion of it could have been contributed to NVAccess instead. But I'd rather have the company pay for something which works and offers more flexibility out of the box. NVDA's collective issues, with no apparent fixes in the horizon, make my work flow more time-consuming.

Good question! I rarely see JAWS issues raised here. However, when it comes to fixing issues, FreedomScientific is way faster. Yes - they may have more full-time employed devs or whatever, and JAWS has got its own issues. But the majority of my reported NVDA bugs, or the bugs others have reported which affect my workflow, cannot be found in JAWS at all.

@jcsteh Yeah it's a much more dynamic thing that gettext at least probably just wasn't built for. Cause you need to distinguish different forms of the same word if you're going to tokenize like that, which is why fluent did the ID thing. And obviously NVDA can't just up and move to fluent, that would put all existing translation work in the bin and be a ridiculous refactor and break compatibility with eeeeeverything.
@Jamie Teh
in reply to Jamie Teh

mastodon - Link to source

x0

@jcsteh @NikJov I thought fluent at least tried to do so? Though I forget how. SOme more abstract variation system. No language has infinite plural forms, and yes, article, articles, list, lists etc would all be separate tokens, and the numbers fed to them would help with langs that have different forms for different numbers, but surely they all eventually converge to some catchall.
@Jamie Teh @Nikola Jović
in reply to x0

mastodon - Link to source

Jamie Teh

@x0 @NikJov Oh sure, if they're separate tokens, the plural forms are entirely doable. My point is that separate tokens also means the grammar will be wrong for some language or another, plural forms aside. For example, maybe some language has different rules about whether you use a conjunction or not when you string phrases together, depending on how many phrases. Or maybe "out of" has to be differently depending on whether there are two phrases after it or just one.
@x0 @Nikola Jović
in reply to x0

mastodon - Link to source

Jamie Teh

@x0 Heh, I didn't mean to dig deep on this. My point is that it wouldn't be entirely grammatical on matter what you do, and I actually think that's fine. Screen reader output isn't inherently grammatical, despite what people try to suggest. And I think it would be far less efficient if it were fully grammatical. Imagine: "This is a button labelled OK which is currently pressed." Yuck.
@x0
in reply to x0

mastodon - Link to source

NV Access

@x0 @jcsteh @NikJov The other consideration may also be that the current implementation reads the elements as it gets to them. The more analysis and processing that gets done, the more potential for sluggishness in responses (and remember arrowing through regular text would still need to check if it was entering or leaving anything and if anything needed to be processed).
@x0 @Jamie Teh @Nikola Jović
in reply to Jamie Teh

mastodon - Link to source

Nikola Jović

@jcsteh @x0 Yeah, I imagined such a possible confusing example while writing this reply already. I would say speak the out of container message with a slight pause to make it even more obvious that it is not part of the text being read, but we're probably starting to get into something that would anoy people who actually want to know when they leave a container.
@x0 @Jamie Teh
in reply to Jamie Teh

mastodon - Link to source

x0

@jcsteh @NikJov So the question then becomes, would the amount of work be worth the reward for someone in core to do it? It's a UX change that would at least help with some of the spam generated by unwieldy HTML, which whether we like it or not happens all the time. Now when entering at the same time, this gets even more weird. Say emails. Out of table out of table table with one row and 3 columns table with two rows and 1 column etc. You can't really apply the same logic to the entrance when info has to be communicated about the container...
@Jamie Teh @Nikola Jović
in reply to NV Access

mastodon - Link to source

x0

@jcsteh @NikJov That might be more of an issue for quick navigation and that multimode setting I was talking about yeah. And gets slightly funky depending on exactly what bits in the architecture get involved to assemble such a message. If it generated something like closing events or tokens or whatever, you'd have to collect them all, sort them in some fashion, and then output that. IDK how that would be anymore sluggish than the current system, if a set is so nested it lags it would lag regardless because it's still jsut one string, no?
@Jamie Teh @Nikola Jović
in reply to NV Access

mastodon - Link to source

@NikJov You are right. I've selected to hear those HTML elements, but since, unlike JAWS, NVDA doesn't display the beginning or end of these elements on separate lines, oftentimes we have to hear verbose stuff about entering or exitting nested lists, tables inside articles, etc. So the issue isn't with the announcement of those elements. Rather, the issue is with the way leaving, and entering, nested elements is handled by NVDA.

This tactile graphics device, the Cadence from Tactile Engineering, looks promising. tactile-engineering.com/cadenc… No published pricing or direct retail sales at this time; apparently they're only selling to institutions right now.

What makes this more interesting than, say, the Monarch or Graphiti Plus is that the base device is the size of a smartphone but thicker, and you can combine multiple devices for a larger tactile display.

I used the Cadence in a demonstration at a conference in 2019. When up to four devices are connected to a host system via Bluetooth, the software can treat them as though they comprise a single display. The cell refresh rate is fast enough to sustain basic animations (for example, an object that moves around the display - i.e., the composite of four devices - in real time).

The software has presumably improved a lot since 2019, and I don't know the current state of development. The Monarch would suit my personal needs better, but I'm glad the Cadence is on the market - even if just for institutions currently.
