Hi,
Been having a play around with Audacity’s menus.
For NVDA users on the list: Have you noticed that certain dialogs aren’t
being read properly? Slider values in effects, static labels in preferences
etc? For instance, preferences/projects, there is a radio button simply
reading as “ask user”, with no indication what the option relates to.
Saving? Opening? Recording? Again, another excellent reason for an NVDA
script in my opinion.


Hi
I'm currently working on the NVDA add-on for Audacity 2.2.0.


The Group boxes for the preferences panel should properly be spoken
when the add-on is active.

Here's the sample output:

Speaking [u'Projects  9 of 16  level 0']
IO - inputCore.InputManager.executeGesture (12:57:15.249):
Input: kb(desktop):tab
IO - speech.speak (12:57:15.437):
Speaking [u'When saving a project that depends on other audio files  grouping']
IO - speech.speak (12:57:15.440):
Speaking [u'Ask  radio button  checked  Alt+k']


Can you tell me a sample effect that does not correctly read?

I know that there are some build-in ones that have some problems, like
the compressor.

Regards
Robert
Cheers.
Damien.
