Hi Don
If in the Voice Settings dialog
(NVDA+Ctrl+v),you set Uppercase pitch change to 0, Say Cap
unchecked and Beep before Capitals unchecked you say NVDA says
"Capital" before capital letters but if you check the "say
Cap" checkbox, it only says "Cap", is that correct?
Does the Code Factory addon have any
adjustable properties available via the Preferences sub-menu
(NVDA+n p) or in the catagories list of the Settings dialog
(NVDA+n p s)? I'm asking these questions because I think it's
the Code Factory addon that is responsible for it saying
"Capital" and I wondered if there were any adjustable
properties governing this behaviour.
Cheers

I think I started this thread and here is
what I have figured out. When
using the code Factory vocalizer addon for
NVDA if you have the voice
settings to not say cap and also have the
beep for caps off on my system
NVDA says the word capital before each
uppercase letter. To make this
better in my opinion I now have my voice
settings set with a pitch
change on caps on zero and I have say cap
on capitaleters turned on. So
now on capital letters NVDA says cap before
each uppercase letter and I
hear no pitch change on capitals. This
makes the verbage on capital
letters a little better.
I did also make it stop saying capital by
adding each uppercase letter
to the default dictionary replacing each
with a lowercase letter and
this resulted in only hearing a pitch
change on uppercase letters but
for some reason this pitch only for
uppercase letters was inconsistent
with some uppercase letters being typed not
having a raised pitch. I
removed all the enteries I made to the
default dictionary.
