Re: start nvda at logon checkbox not working

Shaun Everiss
 

Well uncheck the box, hit ok, exit nvda, then start nvda again.

I have tried this on my system and it works, nvda is not running at login eather just after it but I have turned all of them off and its ok so it should work.

I have tried on two systems and same results.

Re: profile triggers and what to do if NVDA does not automatically switch to previous profile (observed in alpha 19691 ...)

Hello,

it seems, that restart of NVDA solved a problem, so excuse me to spam a mailing list.

profile triggers and what to do if NVDA does not automatically switch to previous profile (observed in alpha 19691 ...)

J.G
 

Hello,

before I'm going open a ticket I would like to ask community in case I have missed something about profiles.

Some years ago I created profiles for applications and say all, which has been brought to NVDA 2019.3.1. And now everytime, when I stop a "say all", NVDA does not switch to previous profile for instance basic profile or app profile. In previous versions like 2019.2.1 it worked fine. It also have worked for some alphas ago. I cannot exactly determine, when it has stopped work. So what can I do to resolve a problem or is it a bug?

I use portable copy of alpha now on version 19691... on windows 10 1909.

thx for your responses.

regards, Jožef

Hi Dan


With the golden cursor add on you can control the mouse with the arrow keys and do a few extras.

Re: Editing of Windows onecore voices

Also, assuming she's talking about the flight simulator thingy, it's
simviation, with an 's', not a 'c'. OneCore pronounces the version
starting with an 's' correctly. It does indeed pronounce the version
with a 'c' pretty strangely, I'm honestly curious what processing makes
it do that because it makes no sense. But it's probably due to a
misspelling anyway, and if it's not, yes, dictionaries. NVDA even uses
synthesizer-specific ones for exactly this sort of situation.

I can't think of a single synthesizer that pronounces everything
correctly.  And that's but one of the reasons for the dictionary
feature of most screen readers where you can substitute some phonetic
spelling that, somehow, the synthesizer does produce correctly that's
unrelated to the actual spelling of a given word.  I've had to do
trial and error until I found a letter pattern that gave me the actual
pronunciation I wanted for a low frequency word.

NVDA Add-ons for Foobar2000/FreeCommander XE?

Hello All:

    Is anyone on this list aware of add-ons for Foobar2000, and FreeCommanderXE?

    Apologies to the moderators for posting this question here. However! When I asked this question on the chat list a few months ago I received no response!

    Thank You! In advance for all your responses and help!

Add-on Updater 20.02.2 #addonrelease

Joseph Lee
 

Hi all,

 

Add-on Updater 20.02.2 is now available. Hopefully this release will be the last time you’ll get to see add-on compatibility notice after installing it.

 

Also, this is both a stable and an experimental release: if you are using recent NVDA alpha snapshots (not many of you should), you’ll find that add-on updates cannot be installed if using Add-on Updater. Add-on Updater 20.02.2 will disable compatibility range check so any add-on update can be installed. If this experiment is successful, it’ll show up to everyone in March.

 

IMPORTANT: version 20.02.2 might be the last version to support NVDA 2019.2; version 20.03 will require 2019.3 or later.

 

Cheers,

Joseph

That should have been, "Looked at its configuration in the NVDA settings panel," which is where they appear to have been subsumed since NVDA 2018.2

Hi

Is there anyone using Libra Office Calc that could explain how to format numeric columns such that a fixed number of decimal places is displayed without truncating trailing zeroes?  For example I want to display 123.40 not 123.4.

 

I appreciate this message belongs on the chat list, so could some kind person please furnish me with the NVDA Chat list email address and details of how to subscribe?

Hi Marco,

You'll need to put your feedback in to Microsoft - the OneCore voices are built into Windows, NVDA just accesses them, it doesn't control how OneCore voices adjust pronunciation etc.  You could talk to the Disabilitry Answer Desk at: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/accessibility/disability-answer-desk

Kind regards

Quentin.

Hello.

MS Speech mobile isn't compatible for this version. I have one pleasure
to developers of NVDA.

Please, could You edit Windows Onecore to same things, as MS Speech
mobile, for example to correct pronunciation of letters and also, names
of voices viewing, as name of voice and language. Also, there is problem
with sorting of voices, because voices are sorted randomly.

Please, could You look on It?

Thank You.
