# IndentNav addon for NVDA
This addon allows NVDA users to navigate by indentation level of lines.
While editing source code in many programming languages, it allows to jump between the lines of the same indentation level, as well as quickly find lines with greater or lesser indentation level.

Please note that tree navigation commands have been moved to [TreeNav add-on](https://github.com/mltony/nvda-tree-nav).

## Download
Please install from NVDA add-on store

## Note on compatibility with VSCode

Builtin VSCode accessibility is very limited: as of 2024 it only exposes 500 lines of code through accessibility API, which makes IndentNav to work incorrectly in VSCode.

By default IndentNav won't work with VSCode and when you try to use it, you will need to select from two options:

* Install VSCode extension ([extension page](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=TonyMalykh.nvda-indent-nav-accessibility))([source code](https://github.com/mltony/vscode-nvda-indent-nav-accessibility)) - recommended way. After installing extension NVDA will be able to access entire document no matter how large it is.
* Continue using VSCode in legacy mode - enable this mode in IndentNav settings. This is not recommended since NVDA will only see 500 lines of document and will erroneously report missing siblings/parents.

## Compatibility issues

IndentNav has known compatibility issues with [Character Information add-on](https://addons.nvda-project.org/addons/charInfo.en.html). It is currently impossible to configure both IndentNav and review cursor on numpad while this add-on is running. Please either uninstall this add-on, or use an alternative keystroke map in IndentNav.

## Keystroke layouts

IndentNav offers 3 builtin  keystroke mappings:

* Legacy or laptop layout: this is for people who were using IndentNav v1.x and don't want to learn new layouts or for laptop keyboards that don;t have numpads.
* Alt+numpad layout.
* Numpad keys layout. There are two modes of dealing with review cursor keystroke conflict:
    * Use numpad for IndentNav in editables and review cursor everywhere else. If you still need to use review cursor in editables, you can temporarily disable IndentNav by pressing `alt+numLock`.
    * Remap review cursor commands to alt+numpad, thus avoiding keystroke conflict.

Keystroke layout can be selected in IndentNav settings.

## Keystrokes

## Other features

### QuickFind bookmarks

IndentNav allows you to configure any number of bookmarks that you can easily jump to. A bookmark is defined by a regular expression and a custom keystroke to jump to a match. Press `shift+` keystroke to find previous occurrence.

For each bookmark you can also set up a parent bookmark. In this case, when you search for a child bookmark, the cursor will never cross parent bookmark. For example, it makes sense to mark class definition bookmark to be a parent of function definition bookmark, as this way searching for functions will never take you outside of current class.

### Crackling:

When jumping over many lines of code, IndentNav will try to quickly play indentation levels as tones of the lines skipped over. This feature is only enabled when report indentation as tones is turned on in NVDA settings. Crackling volume can be adjusted or disabled in IndentNav settings.
