Re: New NVDA sounds
Curtis Delzer
and also, you'll need to copy the old "waves" which are in the newer NVDA like screen curtain on and off which aren't in these. :)

Re: how can I set symbol pronounciation for special case?
Tyler Spivey
It uses Python's re module. You'll have to read the code which handles the speech dictionaries to figure out how it works. Why don't you just write an addon to do what you want?

Also, does anyone know what particular flavor of regex does NVDA use? I noticed it parentheses are treated differently than I am used to and ^ doesnt seem to match beginning of string. Like if I have regex ^ foo^foo, it will match foo even if it isnt at beginning of the line.

Re: how can I set symbol pronounciation for special case?
Samuel Kacer
Thanks for the replies. I didn't actually notice that speech dictionary supported regular expressions. So, I've been playing with writing several expressions, but nothing satisfactory yet. To expand a little on what I want, I am I want it to match on a word that ends in single quote, but not if it is enclosed in single quotes or has a letter following it directly. So cases like 'hello' and don't shouldn't match. What I've got so far is thanks to your examples and some googling is this: ([\w]+)' This is good in that it will match on any word, however it doesnt take care of the case when the word is enclosed in single quotes or is inside a word like don't. I've tried inverted character classes like this: [^']([\w]+)'[^a-zA-Z] But, that doesn't seem to do what I would expect. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks, Sam

Re: strange behavior with Microsoft sapi 5 voices and NVDA
Curtis Delzer
you may have to just do a factory reset of your configuration. you won't use your add-ons, but I had that happen with voices I try to use and then go back to sapi 4 which then can't load. When I do that factory reset of configuration settings, it clears up.

If you wanted to match other alphabetic characters (such as Greek letters), a pattern like this could work: ([^\W\d_])'

There was once a group called WinTips'n'Tricks.
Does this group still exist? I have a problem witha folder left behind after uninstallation of a program which I cannot remove. Need to check on establishing ownership so that this can be removed. Andrea

Re: how can I set symbol pronounciation for special case?
Sascha Cowley
Hi Brian, The regular expression should be: ([a-zA-Z])' That is, the second 'z' should be uppercase. As is, that regex will match anything between uppercase A and lowercase z, which includes things like square brackets.

OCR version 2, compatible with NVDA 2019.3 or later
#addonrelease
Hello everyone,
The following is applicable for fans of old OCR Add-on (compatible with Windows 7 and 8.x): a code contributor to NVDA is now maintaining the beloved add-on, which is now compatible with NVDA 2019.3. More information can be found at: https://addons.nvda-project.org/addons/ocr
Note that this add-on is not applicable to Windows 10 users, as Windows 10 contains OCR functionality. Cheers, Joseph

Re: Tip for canceling an Amazon subscription using NVDA & Windows 10
Jackie,
What follows is not aimed personally, but yours is an example of something I'm trying to cut down on. For those who have additions to a topic they previously started, and that topic was started within the last several days, please post those additions on the original topic. Using a new subject line splits the second topic out from the first, and those following a topic will generally keep reading any time a new message comes through in regard to it. So if, for instance, you start a topic requesting help on a specific thing, entitled, "Help with {specific thing}", that you later find a solution for yourself, please do not post a separate topic, "Solved: Help with {specific thing}." Just add your solved message to the end of the ongoing topic, "Help with {specific thing}. It keeps all information related to a specific instance of a specific issue bundled up in one tidy package, which is really helpful for those searching the archive in the future. I have already merged this back into the original topic, Tip for canceling an Amazon subscription using NVDA & Windows 10 -- 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

Tip for canceling an Amazon subscription using NVDA & Windows 10
Jackie
This morning I learned another, less cumbersome way to do this. Simply
go to the amazon.com/access site, activate the 'Your Account' link, then the 'subscribe & save' link, & then the 'subscription' link. There will be an 'edit' link you can activate in order to edit your subscription. It's a lot easier. I'm glad to see it's actually accessible here. -- Subscribe to a WordPress for Newbies Mailing List by sending a message to: wp4newbs-request@freelists.org with 'subscribe' in the Subject field OR by visiting the list page at http://www.freelists.org/list/wp4newbs & check out my sites at www.brighter-vision.com & www.mysitesbeenhacked.com

NVDA's user data is stored separately from the program itself, so
uninstalling and reinstalling manually shouldn't change your
settings, add-ons, etc.

I have not done an NVDA Uninstall/Reinstall sequence in quite a while, though I have to believe what occurs during an upgrade is its equivalent, as the old NVDA is uninstalled and the new one installed in its place. In that case, any user profile(s) you created and any add-ons you have are retained and ready to rock and roll in the newly installed new version of NVDA. --

Re: Menus In New Microsoft Edge
I'm just as guilty as anyone for having extended it, but I'm now locking this topic as it really has nothing to do with NVDA and I think all of the necessary details have been covered.
If additional conversation regarding new Edge is needed it should occur either on the Chat Subgroup or the Windows 10 for Screen Reader Users group. -- 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
