[nvda] Re: Audacity problem

Audacity has shortcut keys for the basic functions. The basic functions are not available through the menus so you can't learn them in that way. The users manual lists them. I believe there may be one that is not documented that I found out about from another user. The commands are as follows:
None of these commands use a modifier, just the single key stated.
Record, r.
Stop space.
Place space.
Stop play space.
Pause, whether in play or record, p.
Resume, p.  It's a toggle.

hello, is it possible to use aurdacity without using the mouse? I had to click the graphics for recording and playing with the help of jawsCursor.
Thanks,
Aruni.

I may send a report to the development team. However, my concern was not just with Audacity. If it only sees radio buttons in this program in certain dialogs and no associated text, the text isn't seen on the screen at all which is demonstrated by using insert b to read the entire window, then this may be a problem that will be seen in other programs as well. How many I don't know but I thought the NVDA developers might want to examine the method used to display such text to determine the extent and ease of solution.

That could also be an issue you may want to bring up with the audasity team. If it is still in beta then there is no better time than the present. It does seem that because it doesn't work with other screen readers that also rely on MSAA info that it may be a Audasity UI problem that should be addressed.

Subject: [nvda] Audacity problem


I was just experimenting with Audacity while using NVDA. In the preferences dialog, some items read correctly and some don't. I'm using the beta version, 1.3 though I believe these problems would be present in earlier versions as well.

So far, the specific problem I've found is that when you are on the file formats part of the treeview, radio buttons are announced as you tab through the dialog but no associated text is read. I haven't checked much else yet but I did find that one other part of the dialog, when on another item in the treeview is read properly. The following information may or may not make it easier to determine the cause of the problem more quickly, but for what it's worth, the radio buttons are not read properly by Narrator, Thunder, or Serotek (spelling) System Access.
