Updated my #NVDA sounds bat file a little. Checks for three different paths and tries to copy your waves2 folder to waves in an easy step. You should be able to put the bat file into your path and run it from an admin command prompt in one fell swoop after each NVDA update to regain your chosen sounds. dropbox.com/scl/fi/q6opzygfdzs…

Ok, the #Thunderbird chat interface for IRC and Matrix seems to have #a11y issues with #NVDA now. Sometimes NVDA completely freezes, especially when the interface is maximised, though not reliably in all channels. I filed a bug, appreciate anyone who can dig into what on earth is going on: bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.…


"By passing on my knowledge of using NVDA to new users of the NVDA screen reader, my aim was to help people in the same boat as me; as well as sighted people in the community to learn ways that they could help us out in the #community."

This Global Accessibility Awareness Day we'd like to shout out to our translators! NVDA has been translated into over 55 languages to provide access to technology for blind and vision impaired people around the world. Recently we spoke with Harun in Türkiye, who shared how access, in his own language, has helped him: nvaccess.org/post/harun-fast-l…

According to NVAccess, there are over 2,000 #NVDA open issues and if seeing one fixed is "particularly important" to me, they would "encourage hiring someone to work on it."

So how about it, #blind programmers? Your serious quotes for fixing this bug on a freelance basis:

github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issue…

#accessibility


On one hand, I'm glad that screen readers can do something with this new API out of the box. On the other, long-standing bugs exhibited by using live regions are still present with this new API, such as #NVDA not interrupting a normal-priority message when a high-priority one comes in. #accessibility


NVDA 2025.1 Beta 4 is now available! Changes from Beta 3 include:
- Updates to translations
- Fix security issue which allowed an arbitrary process to connect to a Remote Access session running on a secure screen
- Allow Remote Access leaders to regain control after the last follower has disconnected
- Improve focus handling in the Remote Access Connection dialog
- Don’t toggle Remote Access mute when not connected

Hi! Is there any chance we can encourage you to trend #NVIDIA when that's the company you mean, please? I know what their NASDAQ handle is, but #NVDA is much more widely known as the name of the screen reader we make and the #NVDA hashtag is very widely used for the screen reader. It will save both our communities polluting each other's feeds. If you'd like to find out more about the screen reader, our website is nvaccess.org/ - Thank you!

Interestingly, we don't. I think that while a couple of accounts like yours, post now & then on NVIDIA with NVDA as a hashtag, no-one who actually follows or searches for hashtags would ever look for NVDA for information on NVIDIA - and really that is the ENTIRE point of hashtags - and why I saw your post in the first place. We see dozens to hundreds of messages a week using #NVDA to talk about the screen reader - which is why I reached out, so we DON'T pollute each other's feeds.

#NVIDIA shares have lost some value, but if there is no competitor, they will maintain a monopoly for years , even though these months have been turbulent for #NVDA #stock; over the past two years, they have skyrocketed!

In other news, I made an #NVDA add-on to generate and copy a UUID to the clipboard when you press NVDA+Alt+U, because that's apparently something I find myself doing quite often:

I am wondering if it is possible with #NVDA to search for text in specific colours.

Let's say a co-worker sends you a document and tells you that they have formated some sentences in red and others marked with a yellow background.

How would I quickly find such sentences?

With #JAWS the skim reading feature comes to mind. But I don't know if there is a way to do the same thing with #NVDA.



Happy Open-Source Day!*

Open-Source brings so many benefits. NV Access is proud to be part of the community, from welcoming code contributions, to decreasing cost for users around the world. It's easy to see why "Open-Source First" is a popular policy for governments & companies everywhere.

(*At least in Florence, Italy - a quick search found several dates this year - Open Source not only brings innovation, but also choice!)
