Ok @main @mastoblind what do people use for their mastodon client on Windows with #NVDA? I have tried the web client but it's so so cluttered and there's no way to move through the feeds quickly. I'm on Dragonscave so I need something that will work with that.


NVDA 2025.1 Beta 5 is now available! Changes since beta 4 include:

- Updates to translations
- Fixes for reading math attributes in PDFs

We are getting closer to NVDA 2025.1! Thank you to all those who have been trying out betas and giving us feedback, we greatly appreciate it!

I know we have a number of #NVDA users who work in accounting and related fields. I gather they use a range of software from Excel to specialised #accounting software. I know for instance, various parts of Xero are accessible - I'm not sure if 100% of it is completely accessible, though we definitely have people who use it - although with that and others, it may depend on exactly what you need to do. I've boosted for reach and will be interested to see what IS being used currently.


I have a somewhat urgent question for everyone involved/using the IBMTTS/Eloquence on #NVDA #NVDASR.
I'll be writing final exams in one month, on a clean computer provided by my school. They refuse to get the voice on there, as it is not legal, and my principal complained about internet requests the driver would make. Is there a way to get the eloquence voice in a different, legal way? Don't mind the price. Can you, for example, use the voice data from Jaws somehow? I'd really appreciate answers. Thanks

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:

#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

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!



Ok, @main @mastoblind so I have a quandary, I got a new PC, it works great, I have been using it ton with #NVDA and my #BrailleDisplay, and I have realized I have no clue what to do with a PC… I have Discord, Outlook, and Reddit open almost always, but that's all things I do on my phone as well.


While this is a small thing, I do agree. I acknowledge that most applications don't offer a launch or exit earcon and so having it may not be necessary. However, this has been a long-standing tradition since I began using #NVDA in the summer of 2009 and not having the start and exit sounds,, along with the musical signature when launching the installer, seems to be removing something which caused no harm and which has become part of the NVDA experience. Would you consider having it as a toggle where users who want it can enable it?

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.



Hello #Blind and #VisuallyImpaired community! 👋
I'm having trouble signing PDF documents with a digital certificate using my #screenreader (NVDA on Windows). I can do it in Adobe Reader but it's quite cumbersome and requires sighted assistance.
Does anyone have a more accessible workflow or software recommendation for signing PDFs with a digital certificate using the keyboard and a screen reader? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated!
Could you please #Boost this so it reaches more people? Thank you in advance! 🙏 #Accessibility #NVDA #PDF #DigitalSignature #AssistiveTechnology @NVAccess

Tried the free edition of the #ZDSR#screenreader because I was curious. I will say that for my use-case, if #ZDSR was fully documented in English, it competes a lot more directly with #nvda than #jaws does, runs fine in a virtual machine, and has a bunch of stuff built in that I use NVDA addons for. If it had an English website I'd probably grab a copy for the entirely reasonable price. But I'm not willing to purchase through translation.


Has anyone tried the #dotpad #nvda addon?
Also, how do I manually copy this addon into the right directory? there doesn't appear to be a .nvdaaddon file.


Join NV Access in just over an hour from now, at 1:20PM in Grand GH at the #CSUNATC25 conference in Anaheim, California, where we talk about NVDA 2025: New and Upcoming features - we have a LOT to share!

Is it my Internet or is the #NVDA update server no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet its maker! This is a late server! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace!
