Re: Roman algarisms

Which synthesizer are you using? This is set by the synth rather than by NVDA itself. You could override it in NVDA using the speech dictionary, however, you would need to account for any possible Roman numeral. Regards Quentin.

Hi Guenni, eSpeak and I think Vocalizer are the only synthesizers that I know of that support automatic language switching at this time. For the second issue, there is an issue open in our system for this here: https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues/6615 If you log in to GitHub or create an account, you can subscribe an be notified of progress of this if you are interested. Kind regards Quentin.

You know brian this is not really an nvda issue, I had this back in the dos days to, if I assigned something to a dictionary for example a roman numeral or a scientiffic symbol then that would be used for everything.

I think the main dictionary should be locked and have nothing like abreviations etc assigned to it, it sould just be a blank with only words in it and such not short hand. For extras needing it, you would have either downloadable or installed dictionaries for that, you would have to make profiles using such dictionaries, another way to get rid of user clutter for example would certain programs using certain dictionaries, a math program would use a different dictionary a language program would use its own or a different one. And of cause youcould as a user use symbols from where ever you wanted but its still to complex even then. Unless you could tell the dictionary yourself I don't see any way round this.

Sapi5 questions
Anne Günther
Hi
I thought about switching to sapi5 as speech engine. But i have the following problems: 1.: Since german is my first language, I have the automatic language recognition switched on. Unfortunately the voice switching doesn't seem to work. 2nd: When I.m switching voices manually, the other one goes back to it's original settings. Are these things that just are, or is there something I can do about it? regards, Guenni

Or use a completely different synth.Myself if the game is indeed self voicing then can you not do a profile that turns off nvda when its running?

This normally occurs if the voice or synth in use has no definition for those characters in my experience.

So what exactly stopped. Ie If you blindly opened something or went to desktop did the nvda still work?
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
I do not knoow the game or its keystrokes but you can easily mute the nvda output with certain key combinations and if these are used in the game its always going to occur. I think more info is definitely needed on what stopped and did it stop everywhere or just in the application you were in, and also was it a crash or just the output was switched off in the session.

Hi list ken here something very very frustrating happened today during a voicechat. was playing golf with the jim kitchen games during a hole in fact as the voice was speaking telling me how far to shoot all at once it stopped talking in mid sentence no sound came out. at first thought my speaker had died but when switched off no sound out of the headset. my microphone was keyed everything was running. when my key was cleared heard the moderator say he had cleared me I heard his voice. in other words everything was working. I had to sign out and sign back in. NVDA the kiteche game and talking communities were all operating. signed out signed back in and thanks to my computer ken shoots a zero on golf today my game was lost on the signout. so what happened everything was working and microphone was keyed and I could still hear sounds. is it NVDA is it the soundcard is it an update needed on the soundcard

Maybe you can do it properly with regular
expressions in the speech dictionary. I'm not sure you can do it without
using regular expressions.

Re: NVDA not announcing bullets when added
Dan Thompson
Thank you very much for the valuable fixes.
From: nvda@nvda.groups.io [mailto:nvda@nvda.groups.io] On Behalf Of Quentin Christensen
What kind of bullets are you using? If I type * something on a new line, it turns the asterisk into a "bullet" and that gets announced by NVDA at all punctuation levels except "none".
If you use a - to start your list items then you need puncutation level set to "most" or "all" for it to be read (NVDA+P to cycle through the options).
Make sure you have "lists" checked in the document formatting dialog (NVDA+CONTROL+D then press l until you get to "lists").
It announces bullets as you move through list items, and when you press enter to add a new bullet point. The only time it doesn't announce the list bullet for me is if I navigate around a document and I have a lonely bullet on its own at the end of a list.
Regards
Quentin.

Hi Dan
I just tested the bullets insertion.
After selecting, in Word 2010, I press the application key and go down to “bullets”. After entering, NVDA does announce the bullets I inserted. True, when entering on “bullets” there is no speech response, but then, you must know that you selected to enter on bullets.
There are definitely other ways to insert bullets, but to me the above mentioned is definitely the easiest.
