Another wish for #NVDASR, beeing able to screencourtain specific screens. Working at 3 atm and would like to hide the Laptop screen. Wonder if I should actually create an issue about this?
Do you want screen curtain for specific programs OR temporarily since you are working late at night? Reading download.nvaccess.org/document… - if you press NVDA+control+escape once it will enable screen curtain until you restart NVDA (so, for this instance). If you press it twice quickly, it will enable it until you turn it off (so it will still have screen curtain on when you turn the PC and NVDA back on tomorrow for instance).
If you do want screen curtain enabled just for one specific program, you can create a configuration profile for that program - this lets you set most NVDA settings (synthesizer, speech rate, punctuation level.... etc) - and screen curtain, just for that one program.
If it's none of those things you need, then yes please do create an issue :)
@NVAccess Hi, thanks for the info. What I was talking about, and sorry for not formulating it more clear in the 1st post, was something like enable screen courtain for a specific display. I'm sitting at a docking station having 3 displays attached (including the Laptop) I'd like to only courtain the Laptop screen, for example. Hope that made it more clear. I'd then, for instance, move my browser to that Screen/Display using Win+Arrows.
Ah that makes sense. I'm not sure that's something we've looked into. It would definitely be worth an issue on: github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issue… if you would be willing to write up a feature request there please.
