Hi,
Eh? That's weird. Have you tried with OneCore synthesizer too? If the new CLDR setting is checked from voice settings yet NVDA isn't reading emojis, chances are that you may have symbol level set to none or some.
Cheers,
Joseph

OK, just restarted with all addons disabled. Here we go with trying to enter an emoji. I could enter one, but it read the same way, 1 of 50, so I have no idea what it was. So I deleted it.

Hi,
What you're describing is the behavior of emoji panel in Version 1803. Can you try with all add-ons turned off (from exit dialog, select restart with add-ons disabled)?
Cheers,
Joseph

OK, let's see if this works. No, if I shift tab from most recent I get "search emoji", then continuing to shift tab I get the categories like "transportation", but if I use the arrows, it just does "1 of 250" and so on.

Hi


I just noticed now when you are on the recent one if you shift/tab
now it gives you the categories where now you right or left arrow to
them then press the enter key on the one you want then shift tab or
tab to get to the list of them. it seems to be speaking mine out correctly.


it seems like a slight modification to the tutorial.

Just tested the beta, and it doesn't read emojis, at least for me,
with any synthesizer. I get X of Y, e.g. 1 of 50, 2 of 50, and so on.
This happens even with the one-core voices, which used to read more
emojis than any other synthesizer. This happens whether the copy is
installed or portable. Windows 10 64-bit, latest upates, not 1809
though. Here's the log from when I try to get to an emoji to put
into this message in Thunderbird.
