Re: changes in speech in NVDA 2019.3
Quentin Christensen
We did rewrite a lot of the speech code, although for now this shouldn't be an overly different experience, it was more to make future changes and maintenance easier. Evidently you've found something that does work slightly differently. Not sure about the first one, I'll have to learn GMails keyboard shortcuts more - but re editing words, I've written that up https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues/10808 Regards Quentin.

Re: web pages not refreshing
I've seen the same thing. I use Microsoft Edge here. It occurred with alphas of NVDA as well.

installing the Alan voice
Rosemarie Chavarria
Hi, everyone,
How do I install the RH voice Alan to the other voices? It's in the add-ons list but I can't install it. I forgot how to add an extra voice. Thanks for your help in advance. Rosemarie

Re: NVDA 2019.3.1 Not saying selected and unselected

Hi David, Which synthesizer are you using? This seems to work for me using OneCore or eSpeak NG.

Re: say cap for capital letter
Sascha Cowley
I'm not experiencing this with eSpeak NG. Have you tried using a different synth, just to see if the problem persists?

As I told in other message, that is not a NVDA bug.

See in the CodeFactory Vocalizer Expressive configurations if they don't have a option to control that... Vocalizer Expressive from us, Tiflotecnia, do not do that! Best regards, Rui Fontes Tiflotecnia, Lda. Às 00:31 de 21/02/2020, Don H escreveu:

say cap for capital letter
Don H
Don't know if this a speech syn issue or a NVDA issue.
Under my speech settings I have say cap for capitals unchecked yet it is still saying cap when I type a capital letter. So the question is is this a issue with the Vocalizer speech syn or a issue with NVDA?

I just upgraded my sister's nvda to 2019.3.1 and

enter on connect or option.

2019.3.1 Update- Help
Ryan Chin
Just updated to latest version. I’m experiencing and issue on windows 10 where it will not read when I use my mouse in google chrome but works fine in Firefox. Also, I’m experiencing an extended lag when working in Microsoft Outlook. NVDA hangs cutting off the reader and sometimes crashes out outlook. Any assistance would be welcomed.

Re: web pages not refreshing

Hi Don

I reported this problem with refreshing etc to Quentin along with a long. I had had a couple of reports about nvda not refreshing in google chrome, the new edge etc it seems to be the chromium based browsers. some said they had to alt/tab away then come back and the page would refresh. A log was also sent along to him when it was happening on a banking website. Some said using the space bar and nvda key would refresh the page. The nvda key + F5 key will do the same. Not sure if he did a ticket he usually lets you know when he does. Gene nz

web pages not refreshing
Don H
Running NVDA 2019.3.1 on a win 10 laptop using either Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge as my browser.
Running into more and more issues with web pages not being refreshed so that NVDA reads the new page after hitting enter on a link or other control. Have to use the alt tab keys to get NVDA back on the new refreshed page. Is this issue being addressed by the NVDA development team? Thanks

Did you close and restart NVDA after installing vocalizer and some voices?

Regarding the adware, the button to decline the offer is clearly accessible with NVDA. Just press enter or space on the decline button and you should be good to go.As a general note, and it's been true for a long time now, you should always take the time to completely explore each and every dialog presented during the installation of software, and most particularly when it's free software. Though the software itself may be fine, and free, these days the costs of hosting are often covered by the loathsome practice of bundling, whereby you are "offered" something you neither want nor need as part of the install, and most often that offer is such that if you do not opt out you get it by default. Even if you use a tool such as Unchecky you still need to be doing your own due diligence, as there are constantly new ways of sneaking these offers in. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 1909, Build 18363 Power is being told you're not loved and not being destroyed by it. ~ Madonna

changes in speech in NVDA 2019.3
Hi all,
does anyone know whether there have been changes to the speech processing part of NVDA in the 2019.3 update? I didn't spot anything in the change log, but I experience a couple of things that are different from the 2019.2.1 version. The first one is very minor ... when I tag an email in gmail so that it goes into an existing folder, I press c to go to the combo box listing all folders, then I press a letter corresponding to the first letter of the folder name - such as f for my Facebook notifications. Once focus is on Facebook I tab over and activate the Go button, which applied the label to the email. Since 2019.3 the letter I pressed (in this case f) gets spoken when I tab over to the Go button; this did not happen before 2019.3.If I need to press the letter more than once to continue past Facebook to Farming and then to Fiction, NVDA now announces "fff" which is mildly annoying! More of a problem is when I mistype words ... I regularly mistype because as becuase and words ending in tion as toin ... I suspect when I've done this and immediately select the word and retype it without presing space to move onto typing the next word. As a result the first mistyping doesn't get spoken straight away ... it gets spoken as I press space or punctuation ... and it merges the mistyped word in with the correct version, and they are seemlessly connected like they are one single word, becuasebecause ... the same happened in this post when I mistyped punctuation as puncutation and got "puncutationpunctuation" as a result. The only irritation with this is that it makes it difficult to tell whether the subsequent attempts at spelling the word correctly has removed the typo or whether it is still mistyped. I'm curious whether this is an intentional change and, if so, what the thinking behind it is. Giles
