Hi ALL:
I am still relying on JAWS as my screen reader and have not yet tried NVDA,
but I have experienced problems like what has been described for the NVDA
questionnaire. So I wonder if anyone has tried the following if they were
using JAWS, or if NVDA has the equivalent but with different terminology:
I have run across code where using the space bar and the enter key to
toggle a check box, a radio button, or use a key press to move a slider to
increase volume/a location or page in a document, etc, but the spacebar and
enter key or other key actions would not work. I discovered that pressing
the JAWS key combination Insert and the Z keys to turn off the JAWS virtual
cursor would allow the spacebar and enter keys to work as expected, i.e. to
check the checkbox, to turn on the radio button, and so on.
I do not know if NVDA has something equivalent to the JAWS functionality
I've described, so I have no idea if it will be of any use. However, I
would like to hear if NVDA has something equivalent to the virtual cursor
and if it can be turned on or off.
I hope that there is some equivalent and that it works... please let me
know.
Stan

Subject: [VICUG-L] could not check items in the nvda survey
I tried to take the survey but when I tried to check my answer for question
1 it would say unchecked no matter if I pressed space bar or enter. somone
needs to learn how to make a survey. I would highly reccommend nvda a 10
because it's so flexable and there lots of add ons and 3 version s per year.
