Re: Advice about NVDA and Skype, hold the flames!
Some info for skype 8: The list of keyboard shortcuts is always up to date, and can be found at https://support.skype.com/en/faq/fa1202 … m-in-skype
just make sure you select the Skype for Windows Desktop and Windows 10 (version 14) tab. Some general advice: This is a web app, and thus you have 2 modes wth are toggled with NVDA plus space. You have your focus mode and your browse mode. In browse mode, all your quick navigation keys will work such as b for button, h for heading and so on, and once you get used to the app it will help you be faster. However, most keyboard commands in this mode are sent to NVDA and thus to use shortcuts provided by Skype, you go in to focus mode. In focus mode, you can use tab, shift plus tab and arrows to navigate just fine, so there is no need to switch modes all the time. In fact I find myself using browse mode really rarely. To call somebody, of course, you will first need to add them depending on their privacy settings. Alt 1 will always move you to the list of recent chats, and alt 2 is your contacts list. Pressing enter on a person and then ctrl shift p will start a voice call. Answering of calls can also be done quickly, by simply opening Skype or making sure that you are focused on it when a call arrives and just pressing ctrl shift p to answer or ctrl e to decline. Let me know if you have any specific questions and I will try to help.
