Read out hyperlink - B3P15/CSC-403-nvda-project GitHub Wiki

Description

• This feature causes NVDA to read out the link in a hyperlinked piece of text so that the user knows where the hyperlink will bring them.

General Approach

• This feature was best implemented as a source code change. If users want to use this feature, they can find a checkbox for it in the mouse settings to toggle it on and off.

What Went Right

• Information for a feature or program like this was easily available so developing the code was not a huge challenge.
• Testing was easy as you would know immediately whether or not NVDA was reading out the hyperlinked text or the actual link itself.

What Went Wrong

• The first few things I tried didn't work but after some debugging and brain storming I was able to figure out what was wrong in my original code.
