[nvda] Re: NVDA and the System Tray

Windows key + B is a Windows keystroke, whatever screen reader you're using. You can get to the Notification Area with it, but the way icons move around makes the job quite tricky sometimes.

hi,
to access to the systray, press WinKey+b.

this is NVDA and not Jaws, so not all Jaws's keystroke is work in NVDA.

But how do you reach the system tray in NVDA? I've tried to do that the
same way than in JAWS, but failed.


I have lost downloading windows updates this way.


So there are some problems in accessing the system tray then? If I had
managed I should have had access to my F-Secure Internet Security 2008,
Volume etc. That's the case when doing that in JAWS, and after that I am
able to have access to the selections like "Close", "Open" etc.


Personally, I've not found any of the three major readers able to get
around these even with lists.


So that seems like I am not the only one having problems with the system
tray then.
