Presentation

Clipspeak is an addon that allows NVDA to automatically announce clipboard operations (such as cut, copy and paste), along with other common editing operations such as undo and redo.

In order to prevent announcement in inappropriate situations, Clipspeak performs checks on the control and the clipboard in order to make an informed decision as to whether such an announcement is necessary.

You can choose between only announcing copy/cut/paste or also whats is being copied/cutted/pasted on NVDA, configurations, clipspeak.

By default, Clipspeak's gestures are mapped to those commonly used by English versions of Windows:

  • CTRL+Z: Undo
  • CTRL+Y: Redo
  • CTRL+X: Cut
  • CTRL+C: Copy
  • CTRL+V: Paste

If these are not the shortcuts commonly used for these tasks on your version of Windows, you will need to remap these gestures in the input gestures configuration under the Clipboard category.

Automatic update

This add-on includes an automatic update feature. The check for a new version will be executed everytime NVDA is loaded. If you want this, go to NVDA, Preferences, Options and in the add-on category check the check box.
