Ok so does anyone know why with #NVDA I cannot send an email in #Outlook? I hit reply, type the email, and cannot exit the edit area and find the send button. Latest release builds of Windows 11 pro, and Nvda 225. @main @mastoblind @NVAccess

@dhamlinmusic @main @NVAccess I'm confused. Does ctrl+enter not work to send? What about alt+s? My confusion is about "finding the send button", if I may say so.

@techsinger @main @NVAccess ah see I did not even know those were hotkeys, the last time I used Outlook on PC I could see, and it was the old Mail app on Windows 10, so that would likely be the issue. Though I could not leave the edit field at all which was odd, like what if I needed to check the recipient info?

@dhamlinmusic @main @NVAccess The new outlook... Look, the less said the better. It just raises my blood pressure :) As for leaving the field, shift+tab doesn't work, right? Have you tried with object nav? I have never used the new outlook, I'm sorry to be so useless, but I use thunderbird and the last outlook I used was 2013.

@techsinger @main @NVAccess Yeah shift+tab did not work, and ESC to exit the edit field asked to discard the draft.

@dhamlinmusic @techsinger @main Just specifically on shift+tab, it seems to .... be a little flakey - sometimes it does work from anywhere in the reply, but what I did find when I tested it, was that if it doesn't work, if you press control+home to jump to the top of the message, it does seem to work more reliably. I'm not 100% sure why and it behaved nicely when I tried to test it in order to write up an issue.... So do feel free to write up an issue if you can reliably repro it.

@dhamlinmusic @main @NVAccess What about f6/shift+f6? Does that do anything? Also, what about object nav?

[–] dhamlinmusic@dragonscave.space 1 points 4 months ago

@techsinger @main @NVAccess Tried the F6 ones and nothing, can never remember how object nav works, I tried both browse and focus modes without luck.
