Wow I must say I didn’t know about those commands, and I thought I knew the NVDA command set pretty well.
Thanks.
All the best

Did the friend know about commands like, as I recall, NVDA shift page up and NVDA shift page down?  I read the included information in one of the e-mail messages and I believe those are the commands for read to cursor from the left and read from cursor to the right.  If your friend tried the command that cycles through different options, that would be more cumbersome than the JAWS method.

Hi Tyler,
As I'm discovering NVDA and its famous add-ons, a friend tried yours for me. According to what he explained to me, your add-on dos the job but using it seems longer than reading the whole line, and coming back to the cursor whenever it has been left.
I hoped I could have a way as simple as Jaws does: insert+7 reading the beginning of the line until the cursor and insert+9 reading the end of the line from the cursor. It could be nice if we had the same possibility with the whole sentence, which I don't think Jaws offers.
Regards,
Robert

Objet : Re: [nvda] Reading parts of the cursor's line
NVDA can't do what you want natively, but my addon can.
Here's the link again, this time with the readme. I haven't got it put
on the addons site yet because I didn't think it was all that useful,
but maybe it is. Let me know how it breaks and I'll try to fix it.
# Partial Lines
This addon has several operations dealing with lines:
* NVDA+shift+delete changes the up/down arrows to read from the start of
the line to the cursor, from the cursor to the end of the line, or the
entire line.
* NVDA+shift+page up reads from the start of the line to the cursor
* NVDA+shift+page down reads from the cursor to the end of the line.
