Hi, Have you tried looking into whether or not there is a driver specifically for the Vario Connect? As I understand it, the Humanware BrailleConnect and the Baum Vario Connect are identical units. Best, CK

Thanks so much, that works. Now you say in your example, go back to where the dog is barking and delete. How do you go back to the barking part? Do I have to play the video from the start or can I jump from split to split? Best wishes Andrew

I find your add-on pretty useful too. When writing code I often have to deal with pretty long lines and it helps to figure out where I am within the long line. --Tony

Yes. It sounds as though you want the ability

You are correct. Interpreted languages do indeed run slower than purely compiled languages. However, python (like java) uses a virtual machine to run their code. This gives them (almost) the speed of compiled languages, while offering the developer a time savings/convenience of not needing to compile the code. The python interpreter does that for you the first time you run a piece of python code. It's also possible to save this compiled version so that the next time you run the code, it can skip the compile step, and just run the virtualized byte code, which saves time as well. It's an attempt to have the best of both worlds, the compiled speed, and the interpreter ease of use, and interestingly enough, although I'm not a big fan of python, I do have to admit, that for the most part, it succeeds admirably at this task.

Re: Reading parts of the cursor's line
Robert Geoffroy
I'm writing a lot (articles and even books) and when I'm correcting some text, I often need to read again what stands just before the cursor or just after it. It could be more useful if we could reread the whole sentence before where the cursor is and after it, too. Of course, I can remove the cursor to reread whatever I need but it then takes time to go back to the word to be corrected. Is that clear?

Re: Windows Movie Maker
Okay, here's what you do. If it's a long video, you'll have to listen
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
to the video and split it every 30/40 counts by pressing the spacebar to stop the video and then pressing the applications key. There you'll find the split option, entre on that. Do this throughout your video. Then you can go back to the video where the part is that you want to get rid of and split it again. So, lets say you have a video of a dog running and the dog barks without warning. You don't want that right? So, after the barking the dog is still running. You just want the video without the barking. Play the video again and cause you might know after how many seconds the dog will bark, you can stop the video just before the dog barks. Split it, let the dog bark and split again. Then you can go back to the bark part and press delete. There you go, your dog is just running and there's no barking. To be safe, you can add a cross fade or fade out and in from either black or white to let people think that the dog was running for a long time or that it is a new video. Hope it helps. Chantelle

Re: Reading parts of the cursor's line
Gene
I knew about the feature in JAWS but I never
understood what it would be used for. Where would it be used?
Also, NVDA needs a way, I only saw this ability in
the old ASAP DOS screen-reader, to define a column so you can move with the up
and down arrow keys or use read to end and only have a certain column of the
screen read. Let's say you have a document with three columns and you want
to arrow through one column from top to bottom. This can't be done
now. It would be useful in some documents and it would be useful on some
web sites where tables are laid out visually to look like tables but have no
formatting to tell a screen-reader that a table exists.

It is only one more command. I use it

You can cause JAWS to read the message body and not read all that extraneous information by getting in the habit of issuing read to end after opening a message. You may have to experiment to see if you have to wait at all before issuing the command. If you get in the habit of doing this, it becomes automatic and you can do this very quickly.
