Hi listers,
I asked this question from many nvda experts but no one has answered
me properly. actually i wanna switch to nvda because jaws stucks much
in ms wword but i need some keys to know in nvda. Kindly tell me how
may I select a specific large text in nvda which is neither at the top
of the document to be selected by ctrl shift home or at the end to be
selected by ctrl shift end, the text is at the middle , in the middle
somewhere. how can i do this in nvda? shift down arrow is too long
process as the text is large. I often do this work and in jaws i
accomplish it by temporarily marking the place from where that
specific text is starting and then i press insert space then m to
select all text from that temporary placemark to the current position
of the text. kindly tell me the comparable command in nvda. it will
make my switch easy. Thanks.

No these are unreadable in many clients. I suspect some kind of character
set offset in the mime statement of said emails, which makes it think its
a
language it cannot read as there is no character set loaded for it.

Just a thought, but do you have any tool bars enabled. I usually
disable
all tools and turn off the preview. Also, try restarting outlook and
see

if
that works.

Gene,



Thanks for the quick response.



I'll take each of your points in turn:

1. What happens if you exit NVDA and then run it again?

A: The problem persists.



2. Move to the folders list, move out of the current folder, then back.

A: This does not affect the behaviour. Like you, I tried this but it did
not
change anything.



3. control home and end are not the correct commands to use in a list
or tree view.

A: Thanks for the advice! In fact, both actions work equally well in my
Outlook message list as the messages are never unselected. However, I
thank
you for setting me straight on the purpose of these keystrokes!



Are you familiar with the problem which I have raised?





All the best,



Cearbhall

This isn't a solution but what happens if you exit NVDA and then run it
again?



Another work around to try would be to move to the folders list, move
out

of
the current folder, then back. You can try both and use whichever works
or,
if they both work, use the method you prefer..



Also, control home and end are not the correct commands to use in a list
or
tree view. Home and end are. If you use control home and end. you will
move to the top or bottom of the list or tree view, but the item you
move

to
will not be selected. using home and end moves you to and selects the
first
or last item and is consistent with the behavior of using the up and
down
arrow keys, that is, move and select. Control home and end are correct
commands for edit fields such as in word processors.

Subject: [nvda] Unreadable message titles in Inbox list



Hi,



I have an strange problem reading Messages in my inbox!



I am using Outlook 2016 in Windows 10 with NVDA . (All latest versions).



This problem happens frequently but not all the time. I cannot find out
what
the cause of the problem is. I also cannot see when it might or might
not
happen.



Here's the story:

I get about 200 messages a day from all the discussion lists that I am
following and some personal emails. I like to keep my messages in
reverse
sort order so that the oldest are at the top. This way, I can keep the
messages that interest me at the top of the list and delete the newer
ones
below when I don't want to keep them.



my method for managing the messages is to press down-arrow on a message
if
I want to keep it so that the next message comes into focus. If I want
to
reject the message, I press the delete key. This moves the next message
up
into the position of the NVDA focus. In this way, I can move through all
the
messages rapidly.



When the mysterious problem appears, I have found that down-arrow
reveals
nothing. Just silence. I have to press tab to jump away from the message
list and shift-tab to get back and then I find that NVDA+numpad 8 tells
me
that the next message has actually moved up into the focus position as
you
would expect. No amount of up-arrow or down-arrow yields any speech on
each
of the messages. As you know, what should happen is that I hear the
sender
and title information as the arrow moves from message to message.



I have persisted with down-arrow from silent message to silent message
and
found that I can get back to the normal echoing behaviour after about
the
150th message! Alternatively, I can press control and end to move to
the
250th or last message in the Inbox where the movement of the up-arrow is
echoed from message to message as normal. As an experiment, I have
persisted
with the up-arrow from the bottom of the list and found that when I
arrive
at the 150th message from the top, I suddenly lose the speaking of the
sender and title details again. In other words, I am back into the
unspeaking block of messages! I checked the 151st message and, sure
enough,
NVDA reads out the title details. Then I press up-arrow back to the
150th

to
find it silent and all the rest of the messages above it to the top
continued silent as before.



I hope you can follow this! It is as if a curtain lies over the first
150
messages. I can get out from under the curtain at about the 151st
message
and proceed as normal to the last message. Likewise, I can jump to the
bottom of the list and read all the message details until I rise back up
to
the bottom of the curtain at the 150th message.



As I said at the beginning, this does not happen every day but it does
happen frequently.



The last time it happened, I saved the 150 curtained messages in a new
folder and the unreadable behaviour persists even now.

Please understand that I can press enter on each message, whether
"curtained" or not, and read it perfectly. The problem is that of
identifying the message in the Inbox list before opening it.



I would welcome any ideas or suggestions to see if I can get to the
bottom
of this behaviour.

By the way, JAWS does not have this problem - only NVDA. I have tried
JAWS
16 on the same "curtained" block of messages and JAWS can read each of
the
title details normally.





All the best,



Cearbhall
