[RWP] NVDA Peculiarities, was the space bar does not work in the plug in windows!!please help!!

[Indigo]

Hi Roy,
I don't have Reaper on this Win7 64 computer right now, to test routing 
the mouse to a button with the NVDAKey+numpad Slash (/)
 > key , then clicking  it with just the numpad slash (/) key, but that 
procedure hasn't always worked for me.
To test that method, I just ran GoldWave, arrowed  to its file menu, to 
its open selection, pressed the NVDAKey+slash combination of keys; then 
clicked with slash;  and got an error message.
When I arrowed to file open, then used the other method of moving to 
focus with NVDAKey+the numpad plus key, then clicked with NVDAKey the 
numpad enter key, the expected open dialog appeared.

Of course, I also could have got open dialog by simply pressing enter, 
on the word open, or using the standard ctrl+O shortcut, I was just 
testing the two numPad methods trying to  understand how and when they work.

Very good advice to always tab to buttons, instead of arrowing to them.
When using NVDA, In online websites, and in Google search, I find that 
the arrow keys and tab key almost never align on a button, as they do in 
Wineyes, and it's only when I hear the button at the tab key that 
pressing enter will activate it.
Thanks,
Indigo L
