Hi

Download and install the remote add-on on both your own and your client's machines, then view the attached help file via theManage add-ons dialog. The different methods of connecting are described there. Cheers Chris

Should I ask him to ping his IP address and use that as the cooection or is there another way? Cheers!

Re: problem with addon updater
Clare Page <clare.page@...>
Hi ! It isn’t just in alpha and beta snapshots of NVDA that this problem with Add-On Updater occurs: I have had it twice using the latest full version of NVDA, 2018.2.1, on a Windows 7 computer. I had already had that problem when I installed Add-On Updater 18.08.4, but at the time, having read that it was a patch to get rid of a bug in 18.08.3 which I had never installed, I thought maybe skipping versions might be to blame; When I read on this list about the release of Add-On Updater 18.08.5, I did a clean install of that version, and I still don’t have Check For Updates in my NVDA Tools menu, nor anything to do with the add-on updater in my NVDA settings. It’s interesting that only a few of us have this bug. Does this add-on only work for Windows 8 or Windows 10? Or is there something else causing this problem, Thanks in advance for any possible theories in answer to these questions. Bye for now! From Clare

Yes, I am getting the same results! Updater works great with alpha snapshots, but not with beta! David Moore

I'm in the same position with it on the beta 2 version installed, yet alpha snaps are working as portable and the add on is OK there. Look at the errors I posted on the add ons list. It seems to be the eof error that is doing it. I cannot see any difference between the add ons on both systems, so unless the beta of nvda latest version is somehow different. I have had to turn it off as all I get otherwise is an error on nvda start up and no menu option. Could there be some remnant of something left that its seeing as a file it needs to scan? Brian

Ping Joseph.

Hi a number of people on the nvda list myself included have had problems with putting the add on updater on installed copies of the latest beta of nvda. The eof error happens and its as if the add on is not there.
However I just set up a portable version of the same snap and it installs there with no issues, likewise on portable versions of alpha and the stable release of nvda. Is there something different about an installed copy, or do we all have some kind of corruption that causes this effect. I've tried changing add ons around but the effect remains the same, so I'm reasonably sure its not an add on that is causing the issue, as now my alpha portable and the beta installed have exactly the same add ons and versions but the installed beta still has the error at start up or install and is thus not working.

They are talking about the add on for nvda called nvda remote which is directly for the purpose of interconnecting two computers with nvda on them.

OK since we do not know what the actual effect of this was other than a slugging of the nvda operation, and do not know hat it was, its a bit hard to comment, but that has never stopped me before!

Re: How to configure Switch Synth?
Hi Diana, If you use vocalizer expressive , just enable Detect text language based on unicode characters (experimental) check box in Vocalizer Expressive sub Menu -> Automatic Language Switching Settings. Then set voices for English and Chinese ..

Re: Keyboard With Extra Feature Keys
Quentin Christensen
Most keyboards with extra keys I've used tend to just work out of the box, particularly on Windows 10. I must admit, I've never used the extra keys on my cheap logitech here, so I just tried and I can press the browser button to open my default browser, and email button to open email etc. So those functions themselves work with or without NVDA or any other AT running. NVDA has an "Input Gestures" feature on the Preferences menu, which can be used to configure keystrokes for NVDA functions. I just tested and confirmed that yes, those keys can be reassigned with NVDA if needed (just like keys on a Braille display etc). Regards Quentin.

Re: bug or not?
Quentin Christensen
The error seems to be occurring in the Advanced Touch Gestures add-on. As Brian suggests, one of the first things to try is disabling either that addon or restart NVDA and disable all addons. The other thing to try, is to see if there is a new version of the add-on. To disable the addon only: 1. Press NVDA+n for the menu, 2. Press T for tools, 3. Press A for add-ons. 4. From the add-on manager, select the addon with the arrows, 5. then alt+d to disable 6. Press alt+c to close the dialog and restart NVDA. To restart NVDA with ALL add-ons disabled, press NVDA+q, then down arrow to "Restart with Add-ons disabled" and press ENTER. Once finished, restart NVDA again to restore the add-ons. Regards Quentin.
