Any way to lock Focus Mode or ability to pass keys in browse mode? #8167

Could a profile be defined that only happens in this application screen?
Obviously one would need a keyboard initially to set it all up though.

@Adriani90 that seem to work for for the ";" key, but this doesn't work for numerical keys 1-4 since those keys are reserved for heading levels commands. An example input for the kiosk when the card reader reads a id card and converts it to key strokes would be: ;10102374032=001524147? (Enter key) @Brian1Gaff : how would those be used? you mean we could potentially create a profile that automatically switches to focus mode every time the app is on the homepage? |

@jerryscherry, does the solution provided in #8167 (comment) help you with this issue? To reiterate, if you can alter the key presses the card reader sends, you can put NVDA into sleep mode with NVDA+shift+s (desktop layout) or NVDA+Shift+Z (laptop layout) before the card reader executes any numbers and can turn off sleep mode after the numbers have been entered with the same command as above. Alternatively, you can send the key NVDA+F2 to pass the next key through to the application. This would have to be performed for every key that is entered though. |
Another solution could possibly be turning single letter navigation off by pressing NVDA+Shift+Space |
@jerryscherry were the suggestions mentioned above helpful for your purpose? Or do you need a different approach? |
This should be solved in #8846. @jerryscherry please thest with last NVDA alpha. If you still have this problem, please comment here and we can reopen the discussion. Thanks. |
