Briefly, when an element has focus, either a natively focused element, or one made focusable via tabindex, NVDA fires a click at it when enter is pressed. This happens even if a keydown handler is

Hello NVDA developers, I have a problem with NVDA not reading names of files and folders in the SpeedCommander file manager, if its list view is set to thumbnails or icons. I've wrote

Hello all, NVDA Add-on Development Guide 2020.2 edition is in progress, hopefully to be published next week. As we are beyond Python 3 transition, the guide will see some important changes as a

Hi Shubham, imo there is not a definitive way. In fact, the OCR feature in NVDA can be run regardless of the object role and sometimes it says that there is not visible content. I think that, if we

Hi, Perhaps. What can help with that effort is source code comments and separating patches into separate modules so that when it comes time to send pull requests to NVDA, just the needed parts can be

Hey Joseph, Though I don't have time too look into this myself, I really dig this idea and am looking forward for it to progress. One thing that could also be taken into

Hey While this is true, I think the new approach more closely resembled what other screen readers like JAWS and Narrator do. I'm afraid not. This was my initial intent, but it wasn't possible as

Looking at what you are doing it seems that knowing deterministicaly all possible impacts in all apps will be very hard. Is there a way to port the selective UIA event registration option to a per

Hi, Re-initializing UIA handler thread is a performance nightmare - causes NVDA to freeze until the thread comes to life. There are two possible routes I've investigated, both involving event handlers

Hey, The problem here is that it isn't very easy to switch between the global and local event registration. It requires removing all UIA event handlers and registering them again, which somehow

Hi, Not easy, but it can be done at the event handler level (that's the route I'm taking with modern input features at the moment). Cheers, Joseph

Hi, Is it possible to disable this on a per-process level? I've written an app module (a self-contained version of #10910) that needs to react to background windows from the app. Thanks, Bill

Hello everyone, Folks on NVDA add-ons list may have seen the below message, but just to reiterate: For people using Windows 10 App Essentials: you'll notice that if you do enable the option described
