Hi,

 

Bookmarks seems to be an excellent extension for VS Code. You press alt + ctrl +k to leav a bookmark in a file. You can place any number of bookmarks. You go to the next bookmark with alt + ctrl + l and previous with alt + ctrl + j.

 

NVDA is not reading the line I jump to! I can place the bookmark on the line above where I want to go and press down arrow to hear that line.

 

Is there a setting somewhere that would allow NVDA to read the line I jump to? If no, it would be a traffic add-on for NVDA.

Hello

Among others, you have this feature in Tony's enhancements add-on. It's called "Dynamic keystrokes".

Cheers,

Cyrille
