NVDA has a setting in the Punctuation/symbol pronunciation dialog for every setting that says something like send symbol to synthesizer. You may be able to do the same or roughly the same

Wow! I had window eyes, and I didn’t see that. Pam. Sent from Mail for Windows

I have jaws on this computer, and at the end of a message, when I type my name and a period, it calls it “flat” instead of period. This is the first time I have heard of that one. I was always

You will probably find both of these suggestions solve the problem. Here is the link to Silenzio. http://www.stefankiss.sk/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=getit&lid=112 Thanks so much to Piotr

I have heard of the following problem with speech programs before but can’t remember the solution. Using my laptop, if I stop using the keyboard for several seconds there is a delay when I start

I think my original problem was that having attempted to change the pronunciation of tick as I typed it to say apostrophe it resulted in the text reading the word and the letter after the apostrophe

But some synths are smart enough to do it for you. Window-Eyes had a great feature for punctuation, called "Controlled By Synthesiser". This literally let the synth do its thing. If you do that with

Yeah, punctuation is weird in NVDA. There should be one global way to change it like other screen readers. All the best Steve

I don't understand the question. If you are in the Punctuation/symbol pronunciation dialog and you are on a symbol, you can tab once to an edit field. If you don't want tick to be spoken as

One has to be careful on context though as dot is point in decimals. Also, hand altering has issues with hash or number since this character as I recall is used in the system as a marker so you end

NO removing the file then re Running NVDA creates a new one, but it of course removes changes that worked. What I cannot understand about the original query is how changing the name of any punctuation

I've done this too, I don't think that is the problem, what has changed is how you present the word to the synth. Probably some kind of dictionary change? Does this occur on all synths, or just one of

Steve, They are definitely not double quotes. They may be "smart" single quotes, but they get announced as "tick." For someone trying to get rid of "tick" for apostrophe, they'll probably want to

No Brian, the other two ticks you refer to are double quotes, as opposed to apostrophe, so you wouldn’t want to change them all. In other words “This is a double quote” and ‘This is the

Wow, you’re the first I’ve heard of Brian to change Dot to Period. It’s quicker to say Dot. All the best Steve

Hi, We need to recognize that when folks talk about add-on settings, it can either mean the settings interface or where settings are actually stored. I'm assuming the former in my reply below: In

I would have no objection were such a "standard location" to be included as part of NVDA itself, but that would not even come close to guaranteeing that all, or even most, add-on developers would

That might be a bit cludgy, as what if you have 150 add ons installed, which by the way is probably never going to happen. I like the idea, however there has got to be a better, easier

Joseph: I have noticed this problem off and on for many versions of Win 11. If you go into notifications with the win key + n and read them, then there is a problem when exiting
