Usage

Hyper link menu

Suppose you are in one browser and found a link, you like to open it with another browser.

or you are reading a message and in it a link, you wish to open it with a specific browser(not the default), what to do in this case?

Here comes the beautiful hyper link menu feature, press the gesture of hyper link menu(Alt+/), a menu will pop up giving you the option to open the link with several browsers on your machine.

Lot of times, while reading a message encounter a link to github, the browser I am logged in with it in github is Chrome, while my default browser is Firefox, and I need to open the link with Chrome to react with the issue of the link. Hyper link menu can help me now to go to github with the browser I am already logged in with it, even if it is not the default one.

Alt+/ is the default gesture, but you can always change it through NVDA menu/Preferences/Input gestures/Open link with.
