Can this be replicated if you use a different keyboard?

I ask only because of how many "intermittently sticky" command keys I've encountered over the years as a computer repair person.  I'm not saying there is not a bug, but you should use a different keyboard, and preferably one you know to be behaving well, as a diagnostic step.  If the behavior does not persist, suspect your keyboard is going wonky.  And they can do this in stages where everything works fine then you have a brief period of "sticky command key" then it releases.  It's definitely not always an all or nothing situation, which makes it hard to diagnose sometimes.

I can't duplicate this here. One Core voices are in the list of synths
in NVDA. Using latest NVDA stable and latest Win 10 2004.

Hi.  I believe I may have accidentally discovered a discrepancy in the
“Select a synthesizer” dialog with regard to the “Windows OneCore”
voices.  They don’t appear in the list, even though they are the
default synthesizer for Windows 10.  I hadn’t intended to change the
synthesizer, but I triggerd the command.  I was able to replicate the
problem by uninstalling then reinstalling NVDA.  I’m running the most
recent versions of both NVDA and Windows 10.  I’ve just joined the
group, and it’s not in my list of groups in the main groups.io
interface yet, so I can’t check the archive to see if this question
has already been posted.
Thanks,

Hi Tony,

Here you go,

1. In settings>System>Clipboard, enable the option 'Save multiple items to the clipboard to use later. Press the Windows logo key + V to view your clipboard history and paste from it.'

2. Open Notepad as an example.

3. Type a couple of lines of text, cutting or copying them to the clipboard.

4. Press Win+v, and use up or down arrow to highlight the one you want to paste and press enter."

5. Notice what happens.

Something else I just noticed:

If the window's minimised, you may get an error message about objects.

Hi Kara,

Could you write down exact steps to reproduce this? What is clipboard history?

I am experiencing sticky Control key often, but I don't have a reliable way to reproduce this. If I have one, I might investigate this myself.

Hi everyone.

I believe this might have been mentioned before, but sometimes when pasting text using the clipboard history menu, either the control key will stick, or it'll just insert the letter v.

It only happens with NVDA. I don't have either of these issues with Narrator.

I have tested this with all add-ons disabled with the same result.

I'm running Windows 10 Version 2004 (OS Build 19041.450) and NVDA version 2020.2. The same happens with the current NVDA alpha, which at time of writing is version alpha-20763,1ef4dfb0.

Any ideas what might be causing this?

Thanks in advance,

Kara

Brian,

I've tried the same thing on my wife's computer with her keyboard and the same thing happens,.

Good advice, Sean, I would be glad to follow your suggestion.

 

How do I get to know CMD, Python Console and NVDA's cursor / navigation system?

 

 

All the best,

Hello, good luck.

I don't think IDEs running as web services are efficient.

Because the codes are difficult to navigate.

I recommend getting used to CMD, Python Console and NVDA's cursor / navigation system.

I am starting to learn the Python programming language and I have been making efforts to use the “Python anywhere” online browser. I have managed to register and achieve a user name and password. I have also managed, with some difficulty, to get into my dashboard and open a console. I may be using the wrong commands but I am finding it difficult to work with the command window.

 

Have any members on this list used Python anywhere successfully?

In preferences you can set CAPS LOCK as the NVDA/insert key

I Need to bring up the NVDA menu to go in to the options and change the keyboard layout to be laptop but I can’t perform an instert+n, does anyone know of another way to bring up the NVDA menu please?
