So, Leasey users, have you experienced this? I had just upgraded from 9 to 10, and press Leasey then H for the help screen. Since I was in file explorer, I got explorer based help. I wanted to get back to the main list, so tabbed to where I could do that. Then, I got this:
unknown script call to:

And it didn't work. I'll try restarting JAWS, but any other ideas? Will I need to reset my JAWS?

As much as I enjoy using #Thunderbird, this notice gets annoying after a while, especially because it interupts whatever my screen reader is saying, so I have to repeat the focused item to hear the subject line of an email, every single time. Does anyone have a way around this? #NVDA and #JAWS do the same thing.
#Screenreader users: in a timed online exam, how would you expect to interact with something telling you the amount of time left?
I think having it regularly announce the time remaining is an obviously bad idea. If you know that it's labelled "Time remaining", would you just search for that text in the page when you want to check the time?
Very often, after a page loads, it will refresh again in about 30 seconds. This doesn't seem to occur with NVDA, although I'm still having trouble obtaining data as it doesn't occur with JAWS consistently. I can likely work around the problem by setting page refresh to "off" in the JAWS options dialog but I just wanted to know if other users of Brave have noticed this.
Update: as I continue to experiment with this, I'm becoming convinced that this may well be a #JAWS issue, as I can't reproduce the problem using NVDA 2024.4.1.

And I'm still sad that workplace adjustments are still hugely JAWS driven, when NVDA Addon development should really have made this much more of an open thing.
Hey ho, it's all about the choice I suppose and that's a good thing. Hopefully screen readers will keep enspiring each other to new things.

I wrote an article about how to make hastags accessible. Did some #ScreenReader testing with #JAWS, #NVDA, #VoiceOver and #Narrator, which was fun!
Pretty long one though, contains a bunch of tables for comparison. Enjoy the ride!
