keyboard on lenova
Howard Traxler <howard@...>
I have a couple of IBM laptops. They seem
to be the same thing some of you refer to as Lenova. Neither machine has a
"windows" or "logl" key. Nor do they have a "eontext" key. I am
aware that there are replacement keystrokes, but they seem to not do exactly
what those missing keys should be doing. So, can one re-assign some key to
take the place of those? Maybe I should just get used to what I have been
doing, huh?
Thanks.

In a recent Windows 10 Anniversary Update Preview builds, this information has changed. Not only it broke Edge for some screen readers, it also broke search results announcement in Start menu among other controls. I and other developers have been working with Microsoft on understanding what's going on and provide needed fixes in our screen readers. In regards to Edge support: Edge is a UIA universe. Therefore a reasonable support for Edge will require good UIA support from screen readers (termed UIA clients). Recent screen readers do include UIA support facility (UIA handler in NVDA, FSUIA in JAWS). However, it is known that Microsoft includes broken UIA implementations in some apps (including Office 2013, and in older releases, Edge), and MS is known for changing UIA attributes without notice, giving screen reader vendors (NV Access, VFO and others) a headache when it comes to writing workarounds (hence Eric Damery's statement on difficulty in supporting Edge in JAWS is justified). I can go on about UIA stuff and workarounds that screen reader developers came up with (I think it should be a separate thread), as part of my recent work has been hunting for weirdness in UIA and writing workarounds for it in NVDA (my patch on UAC redesign workaround is a good example, something that taught me not to trust MS completely when it comes to certain UIA information). In regards to UWP: due to security mechanism in place, some screen readers will not announce typed characters (it was observed in NVDA). Screen reader vendors and Microsoft were told about this problem. Third, about toasts: when toasts appear, they usually fire a tool tip event, letting screen readers know that they should announce new notifications. In a more recent Insider Preview build, toasts do not fire this event, which means toasts will not be announced by third-party screen readers automatically (exception is Narrator). I raised this issue with Microsoft and with NV Access, and at least NV Access has put this as a high priority issue. New UAC: Due to redesigned look of User Account Control in Anniversary Update, some screen readers would not announce UAC prompts. This affects not only third-party screen readers, but also affects Narrator (turns out there is some misunderstanding between MS and screen reader developers when defining what exactly a dialog is). At least for NVDA, this was resolved and is going through active testing in the next/alpha snapshots. Lastly, about so-called OneCore: According to Peter Bright (Ars Technica) and various talks given by Microsoft staff, OneCore is a group of shared components that power Windows 10. This include essential components all variants of Windows 10 come with, with each variant including variant-specific layer on top of that. For example, Windows 10 for PC's include oneCore, and on top are desktop and UWP (Universal Windows Platform) components and other support routines, whereas Windows 10 Mobile include OneCore and phone functionality. An interesting variant is Windows Holographic, which includes OneCore plus holographic user interface and UWP. The high-level overview of components included in each variant of Windows 10 (to be seen in Anniversary Update) are: * OneCore: Windows NT kernel (ntoskrnl.exe), subsystems support. * PC's: OneCore, desktop experience, UWP, features for different versions of Windows 10 (Home, Pro, Enterprise/Enterprise LTSB, Education), Windows Subsystem for Linux if enabled (for 64-bit versions). * Windows 10 Mobile: OneCore, telephony stack, cellular connectivity components, UWP. * Windows 10 IoT (Internet of Things): OneCore, UWP, IoT-specific components. * Windows Holographic (Microsoft HoloLens and friends): OneCore, Windows Holographic interface, UWP. * Xbox One: OneCore, game/OS hypervisor control routine (called Nanovisor according to Peter Bright), UWP, gaming components. * Windows Server 2016: OneCore, choice of components for server roles.

Android tablet questions
Marie <magpie.mn@...>
I was recently given an older Samsung Galaxy tablet and
would like some help since I am not very proficient with the Android platform
but wish to learn.
First of all, is there any way to have S Voice or Google now to stay
running in the background so you don’t have to open the apps each time you wish
to make use of them? I like S Voice for the things I want to use this function
so really would like some pointers.
Is there any way to get the explore by touch to work consistently, or is it
dependent on the app you may be using.
I did go grab KNFB reader right away before they raise the price. and find
it works well on the tablet.
The tablet is running Kit Kat 4.4 and it is cellular enabled although I
don’t have that activated it is an At&T tablet so, if I wanted to activate
it on a temporary basis, is this possible and if I do, would I be able to get
calls on Skype or Hangouts.
Sorry for so many questions but ...
Thanks, Marie

Re: Where is the gmail settings menu?
Gene
That's good. As an example, I consider
Youtube to be a generally safe site. You can't listen to music or anything
else on it unless you run JAVA scripts. On another site, I can't submit a
comment without JAVA scripts on. I don't just go to every site with
scripts on. I allow scripts on sites I expect to be safe and where I know
scripts must be used to do what I want on the site. Of course, something
may happen but there is an enormous amount you can't do if you never allow
them.

Re: How frequently do you use the Windows Narrator screen reader?
#poll
Gene
The screen-reader market is not a typical open
market. This isn't a business where there is real competition. NVDA
is supported by donations and grants. If Microsoft tried to make a
screen-reader roughly equivalent to NVDA and succeeded, where would grants and
conttributions come from for NVDA. Fallacy of composition. You are
considering screen-readers as a typical market situation when they are
anything but. If NVDA was a business and all the volunteer work and the
work supported by grants and contributions was assigned its real value, NVDA
would be expensive just as any other powerful screen-reader.

I don't necessarily agree with that. Whereas apple is a closed platform with very few options, Windows is (relatively) open; and if there is a built in screen reader, developers will just work harder to make theirs a better option. That's how business works. You work harder to make yours the best option possible, or you die. Be it a cafe, an audio editing solution, or a screen reader.

Re: How to make two different email alerts for two different accounts

No just for each account! As I explain below. Now I myself can just touch

the mail app and it will tell me if I have mail and how many . it will not tell me how many for each account unless I open the mail icon. Then I can if I choose go to wwhere the list of all the mail accounts is and know how many is in each account. But not from which address they came. This is not possible as of yet. The most you can do is get a different notification sound for each mail account you have and then how many mail you have in all accounts and then if you open the mail account and have them all listed then you can tell how many for each mail account. But not how many from what address for example tech talk, tech chat and so on. Maybe in IOS10 this might happen. Matt.from.florida@...
