Re: soft-voice and objPad comments

I haven't used ObjPad but I don't think your
description is accurate. The documentation appears to indicate that it
allows moving through objects without respect to their position in the tree, if
that is a proper way to put it, in other words, without respect to whether they
are parent or child. You evidently don't have to move into a child object
to move through it. But that is not the same as screen review and there
are times when you see something in screen review you don't in object
navigation. the opposite is also true depending on how a program is
designed.
It is important not to provide misleading
information when describing something.
You may be enthusiastic about the add on because
you don't like using object navigation as it is implemented in NVDA
itself. But my preference is to see how things are organized. You
are making it sound as though the add on somehow does more than object
navigation in NVDA. It appears to me that that isn't true. It just
does it differently.
Others will, I hope, indicate whether my
understanding is correct.

Subject: [nvda] soft-voice and objPad comments does! I wanted a jaws-like-cursor for NVDA? I got one and in fact its so awesome because it takes the old jaws cursor along with the jaws touch cursor and rolls them into one yet its even easier to use! I really really like objPad and will be telling everyone about it. And I may have found another free synthesizer addon for NVDA for all of us to use. For personal use only, not commercial use... It is called soft-voice and it sounds similar to eloquence but better than eSpeak. I have one or two more things to check out with the soft-voice tts makers but once I do and everything is go then I'll let all of you know the final verdict on soft-voice tts. I can tell you that it sounds a bit like eloquence but it only supports english and spanish languages. and that it has a bunch of interesting novelty voices along with the normal voices and its very small and fast and responsive. I will not post it here though until I'm certain its fine with the authors.
