Hi Darragh: I've passed your email onto the person responsible for VS accessibility, including VS Code. I really don't have a lot of experience with VSCode, so hopefully he can help us figure out where this needs to go. Unfortunately he's out for the holidays so we may not hear anything back until after the new year. Also I know the EDAD person who normally monitors this list is on vacation, so I'll pass it onto them so a ticket can be opened for this issue. Sorry I don't have much more for you right away.

Working with Arduino. I really like the UI of visual Studio Code. It makes perfect sense and I really like that when using it with NVDA, the verbosity is just perfect! But I'm having a problem when trying to upload sketches to the Arduino. I'm not sure what that problem is as I'm not getting any details. There's nothing in the output window. Here are my questions. Can anyone assist please? 1. When uploading to the Arduino. Do I need to explicitly initialize the board? This wasn't necessary in previous IDE's. 2. Should the output window report on the success or the failure of uploading the sketch? 3. Is the bod rate and serial connection saved when the Visual studio code editor is restarted? I don't think it is. 4. When I show the serial port but I close the output window, how is it re-enabled again? There's no window menu. I generally just try the output window again. Any other tips appreciated. _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list Blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flists.hodgsonfamily.org%2Flistinfo%2Fblind-sysadmins&data=02%7C01%7Cryshugar%40microsoft.com%7Cb183cff8426c4c73a38508d548dbd962%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C636495031436777295&sdata=EoMKgMU5bRyQEozOwf99a3IB0k5u%2Bz1RraYNZ%2FXCGyc%3D&reserved=0
