Re: How do I tell if a word is capitalized?

Marilyn and Don Bilderback
 

I cannot get the beep for capitals to work no matter what I do.  When it says capital it is intrusive to my typing speed.  I can’t seem to get the pitch change set where I can tell the difference either. 

 

What am I missing?

I have the checkbox checked, but it only says 'cap' if I am typing out the word letter by letter, not when I'm having it read continuously to me.   I tried checking the 'beep' box, and also the 'say cap before captials' setting, and the 'Capital Change Pitch Percentage' setting, and none of them give me any indication if a word is capitalized or not when I am reading line by line or continuously reading.  

Is this a bug, or does NVDA literally have no way besides going through a document character by character to figure out if the proper nouns are properly capitalized? 

Thanks, 

Tara
