Re: NVDA with Password

Quentin Christensen
 

I must admit I hadn't paid attention to this, but I don't think you should hear "blank" when moving to the start of a piece of text.  If you move the caret to the start of a field with text in it, NVDA should report the first character (the character to the right of the caret).  If you are in a password field, NVDA should report "star" instead of the character.

Just testing this now, NVDA 2019.2.1 seems to behave exactly the same for me?  As in, I don't get "blank" at the start of the password field, unless the field itself is blank.

Also, 2019.2.1 is a minor ".1" point release of the second main version of 2019, not February first, although I know Eloquence at least reads it like a date.

Regards

Quentin.

Good Morning:  With the February first version of NVDA you could hear a
blank if you went past the beginning of the stars in your password
field.  This is the field for when signing into the computer that I'm
referring to.  With the new version you hear nothing and it's like you
can't go any farther back.  This blank help to know when you are at the
beginning of the field.  How does anyone else feel about this?  This
word of blank help me know that I'm at the beginning of the field
especially if a mistake had been made.  This tells me that I can start
again to enter my information.  As it is now with an insiders version of
windows 64 bit addition of 2004 it might be different than anyone else.

Re: Bad compatibility nvda 2019.3 with sound cards Realtek

Quentin Christensen
 

Can someone experiencing this please send a DEBUG level NVDA log to me at info@...?

Also, out of curiosity, are the users of these Realtek cards with these problems also experiencing the issue with Pitch change for capitals not working?  (I've had that reported separately and just wondered if they were connected or not)

Hello, dear subscribers!
I have a few users in the new version of nvda 2019.3 noticed the
trouble: the program responds slowly when moving in the conductor
between files, pausing when reading any text in those places where
pauses shouldn't be. Also with the new nvda has become impossible to
read web pages - between all the elements of web pages, nvda pauses that
impede the perception. The problem is evident both in installation and
in portable version of nvda, as it is not dependent on the speech
synthesizer, it happens with any of them. We are faced with this
problem, found in our situations one thing in common: we have installed
a sound card from Realtek, and the model maps fairly new. As long as we
stay on the last stable version of nvda 2019.2.1, but we understand that
this is a temporary solution and it cannot go on forever, because this
version will soon cease to support a Supplement.
Can you please tell how to solve the compatibility issue with nvda
2019.3 with sound cards Realtek? If you are now ready solutions yet,
respectfully ask the developers to pay attention to this problem and
possibly solve it.
Thank you for your attention and help!
With respect and best regards Anastasia, Kyiv, Ukraine.

And this has been discussed, and announced as the future direction, as many times as it's been complained about recently.   The need has been recognized, but one has to set priorities, and getting the core product launched using Python 3 comes (or, now came) first.

Anyone needing NVDA Remote at the moment should not update to NVDA 2019.3.X.

The activation is removed through the NVDA/Vocalizer Expressive menu.

It will take some hours to be available again, and you will receive an e-mail notifying you that the activation is again available...

Sorry Rui,
I downloaded the vocalizer add on you recommended in your link and re-downloaded the voices I need and installed all of them, but it did not help. This time I did not get a message that they are not compatible, but I got no speech at all. How do I remove the installation activation of the vocalizer so that I can reuse it? I do not want to lose one activation trying and failing.
I now reinstalled NVDA 2019.2 and everything is working normal.
Where can I find the instruction on how to remove the activation and restore it in another installation?

Try turning off forms mode, NVDA key space, then turning it on again, the same command, NVDA space. 
 
But before trying that, try the command NVDA key f5.  That command refreshes what is displayed.  It sounds as though in chrome, the browse mode buffer isn't being refreshed to show when you take an action such as check a check box.

Hello:

I brought up the issue below last June but aside from some related discussion never got anywhere about using this software on Windows with NVDA.  I really need some assistance with this issue to make a full transition to NVDA.

Software is alpine for Windows and Pico, also for Windows.  It is not exactly that the software doesn't work at all, but it only partly works.  For example, in editing a message, I can usually get speech in the text, but there is no braille.  Sometimes while editing, when I move down line by line I get no text, but I do get text moving up line by line after moving down.  In the menu of messages, I can't see the messages at all.

Thanks.

Hi:

I use two fairly old pieces of software:  the Alpine email client; the Pico text
editor.  Unfortunately, I don't seem to be able to get this software to work
with NVDA.  It only shows a blank screen for me.

Pico is particularly portable and I'm betting that the two programs have the
same screen issues since they were written by the same source.  I haven't
attached it here but sending it via email should be very simple.

Is there a way I can try to diagnose this?  Or, might somebody be willing to
look at this who knows more about thwat they are doing?

Many thanks.
