Is the chat info only available after the meeting is over? Or does NVDA
work differently? Yesterday, I was on a Zoom call, and someone mentioned
entering info in the chat. Using NVDA, I did alt-h to open chat, but I
couldn't find anything in it at all. Was it an NVDA thing, or was it
because the meeting hadn't finished yet?

I have found that it is not possible to activate individual links sent
through a chat with Zoom. Nor is it possible to copy individual parts of the
chat. What I did try with JAWS was to focus on the chat text history and to
select all of the chat with CTRL+A. Copying the result into Notepad at least
gave me all of the text, which I could parse and isolate relevant portions
of the text.
If you hear the link spoken as a part of your Zoom session and you act
immediately, you can capture the link text through the JAWS speech history
function: INSERT+SPACE, H.
Other than these steps, I'm not sure how else this can be performed.
Cordially,
Curtis Chong

Folks,
If I want to activate a link in the Zoom chat, how do I select it and
activate it. In the Hartgen scripts, for JAWS, windows + alt + m used to
copy it to the clip board. That is not working for me now.
How would you activate a Zoom link in the chat using NVDA?
I do know you can save the Zoom chat information once the meeting is over.
Thanks.
