Virtual Review
- Authors: Rui Batista and NVDA Addon Team
- Download stable version
- NVDA compatibility: 2019.3 and beyond
This Addon allows NVDA users to review a Window content in a text box, similar to window virtualization of JAWS for Windows.
Note, however, that this is just a convenience for users and does not replace NVDA's excellent review modes and object navigation support.
Usage
Press NVDA+control+w to open the virtual revision Window.
Then simply navigate the shown textbox as you do in any other text content.
You can press Escape to close the virtual revision window.
