When using Miranda, the messages from different windows are all put into the same buffer, which is accessed by insert+ctrl+1. For example, I am chatting with person A and person B, and I am focused on person A's chat window. Person B sends me a message. Now, if I press ctrl+insert+1, the message sent by person B is being read, not the last message from person A. Logically, when focused on a window, these hotkeys should read the last messages in the current window, not Miranda in total, unless they become system-wide hotkeys, in which case it would make sense.

This will be tricky to implement, thus leaving it until better times.

I also encountered the problem described above. Due to the inaccessibility of many chat programs nowadays like: Google Talk, Yahoo Messenger, and In order to avoid right to left problems in the official MSN client, it would be great and useful for many nvda and chat program users if NVDA could be improved to work better with miranda.

I would say p3, because there is a workaround (skipping over messages from other windows) but it is not ideal. On the other hand, Miranda IM/NG isn't a core Windows app, so p2 seems overly eager.

@parham, @shaimaa, @dkager can anyone test if this is still reproducible in the last Miranda verion? They seem to improve accessibility, maybe they have also considered this feature.

Could someone please give an update if this is still an issue in last miranda version? I cannot test it because in my network there is no one using Miranda and I cannot build a realistic test environment. Thanks.

I don't think there has been any progress on this.
Note that @codeofdusk has worked on Miranda support lately.

This (along with #1471 ) may be fixable using NVDAObjects.behaviors.LiveText on the read-only edit control/caching messages, but I haven't had much time to investigate this.
