Re: Initial Speech Cutoff Using Bluetooth Headphones and NVDA
I would think that Silenzio might work. I believe I read about an
NVDA add-on that deals with this problem as well.

and NVDA
hi Bhavya,
there is some amount of loss in speech with nvda when using bluetooth
headphones as far as I know there is no fix for it
Dear all,
I am currently using NVDA 2021.2 with the
Bluetooth Audio add-on installed and enabled on a Windows 10 machine. With
it, I am using a pair of Bluetooth headphones with my laptop, both of which
are Bluetooth 5.0 compatible. Still, from time to time, especially when
I am reading short stringgs like an alphabet or a monosyllable,
the initial bit of the speech is cut off. Are there any ways to
minimize the cutoff or fix it entirely? Please let me know.
Best

Re: NVDA says "link dot" even when Symbol Level is Set to "some"
You have allowed your question to be answered with the additional
information. With my punctuation level set to some, I hear dot if there is
something wrong such as if I accidentally have typed two dots instead of
one. I am writing this as constructive criticism and not specifically to
criticize you, since I see this happen many times. When describing a
problem, it is important to discuss the conditions and not leave things
out. What you currently stated is an important condition.
To hear no periods in the case you describe, dset punctuation level, set
with Numpad key, p to none. I never hear dot spoken no matter if the
period is in a link or not with this setting.

If you are using the say all command or reading line by line
, then maybe your punctuation level needs lowering, try setting it to some and
see what happens then

Hi,
I'm talking about when the dot is out of the link. For instance:
Goodreads.

You can try setting the level for the actual symbol to
high. That means it will only be spoken in high. I’m not talking
about setting the general level. There is more than one case for
determining when a period is spoken.
Ok, thanks for the suggestion. I will give it a try.

Hi everyone,
I've been wondering why NVDA says "dot" after reading a link on a web page
or any where else, even when the say symbol is set to "some".
Are there any uses for this happening? Because I don't see any uses for
this. Is there a way to modify this behavior?
I tried using speech dictionary to modify it, but without any
success.
Thanks

Re: NVDA says "link dot" even when Symbol Level is Set to "some"
Symbol level is used in NVDA+p and Punctuation/symbol level in the voice settings, so both are valid. People simply don't test what they write, even if the testing takes a few seconds, so the advice here can be hit or miss.
The reason this happens is because NVDA splits the content before and after the link. Example from the log:
Speaking ['This is a ', 'visited', 'link', 'test', '.']
This log fragment is almost useless, because it shows the processing at too high a level for what we need. But I know that if you write a . on its own NVDA will say dot. So combining those two, we get the behaviour you're seeing.
The speech dictionary is useless here, it it doesn't have enough information about what it's speaking to try to fix it. Nor do addons. Your only options are:
1. Report an issue on GitHub to get this looked at and maybe fixed. 2. Set your . in Punctuation/symbol pronunciation to level most and send only below symbol's level. There are two dots, you don't want the . sentence ending.
If you do this, make a note of what the settings were before, because NVDA has no way of restoring these to factory defaults. If you do need to restore these to factory defaults for some reason, delete symbols-en.dic in your NVDA user configuration directory and restart NVDA. To get there, type %appdata%\nvda into the run dialog or find "Explore NVDA user configuration directory" in the start menu. On my system, it's under All apps, NVDA, or the search box should find it.

Changing to Thunderbird and threaded view
Hello all
Like on my iPhone, is it possible to switch from every message individually and have messages grouped into Conversation threads with thunderbird andNVDA.
Following this question, is it then easy to keep track of the different conversations using this email client plus the above fore mentioned screen reader.
Looking forward to hearing from anyone about this.
kind regards
Daniel

Re: NVDA Responsiveness in Versions of Microsoft Office
Dear Quentin,
Thanks for your helpful response. I will review the articles you linked and try to follow their troubleshooting suggestions. In the meantime, I do want to make sure, as you advised, that all my Word UIA bugs are reported on GitHub. Currently, I am using the search phrase "is:issue is:open label:component/UIA-ms-office" which is showing up only 3 open tickets. Is there another broader or narrower component for Word UIA? In case there are tickets you are aware of that should be but are not tagged appropriately, could you add the relevant components to them?
Thanks.

I have a feeling that UIA support is still kind of janky at best and is still under development, and yes, typing is much snappier in word with UIA turned on, and this computer has rather limited system resources btw. I know this isn't quite on topic, but I'll also mention a few things I noticed in Excel with UIA support turned on, and btw I have both office 16/365 (or something like that) which I got from my college for viewing narrated powerpoints and office 2007 (I know, I know, it's so old but that's what my family has). I found the following, particularly with the newer office version (and sorry I know this is Excel): - Pressing NVDA+Space does not switch between browse an focus modes. - Pressing NVDA control C and NVDA control R does not allow you to set automatic row and column header reading. - Commands to select an entire row (shift + down arrow) and commands to select an entire column (control shift down arrow) don't work as intended. Instead, I get something like (selected 1 through 1) which isn't right. And yes, none of these are a problem with UIA turned off.
And a few issues with excel and braille displays (and yes speech is perfectly fine here): - When I enter browse mode and navigate between cells, nothing on the braille display changes but I hear all the contents read out to me in speech. This is not at all an issue in focus mode (and yes I did report this on NVDA issue tracker under the name mrsviolafangirl). - When using the newer version of Excel (and yes this happens no matter if UIA is enabled or not), when I type into a cell with a braille display connected, the contents of what I'm entering is not showing up on the braille display (but it is spoken just fine in speech) and I have to press escape or enter to read what I typed on the braille display. This is a non issue in my old MS Excel 2007. And yes, I'm well aware that the number of people who use braille displays is quite limited so I totally understand if braille display issues are hard to reproduce.
Okay sorry for commenting on excel issues on this thread, but if there's some little quirks using NVDA with MS office that can use some fixes, it's worth mentioning lol.

Re: NVDA says "link dot" even when Symbol Level is Set to "some"
The punctuation is already set to "some".
I should have added "punctuation Level" instead of "Symbol Level"
in the subject. It got confusing I guess.
I apologize for the mistake.

If you are using the say all command or
reading line by line , then maybe your punctuation level needs
lowering, try setting it to some and see what happens then

Hi,
I'm talking about when the dot is out of the link. For
instance:
Goodreads.

You can try setting the level for
the actual symbol to high. That means it will only be
spoken in high. I’m not talking about setting the
general level. There is more than one case for
determining when a period is spoken.
Ok, thanks for the suggestion. I will give it a try.

Hi everyone,
I've been wondering why NVDA says "dot" after reading a
link on a web page or any where else, even when the say
symbol is set to "some".
Are there any uses for this happening? Because I don't
see any uses for this. Is there a way to modify this
behavior?
I tried using speech dictionary to modify it, but
without any success.
Thanks

Re: NVDA says "link dot" even when Symbol Level is Set to "some"

Sarah k Alawami
I think I've even seen "link dot" as well if the period is outside the link and that's at some for me. I need to play, but I'm using elocrash here. I have not tried with one core or espeak as of yet to see if I can reproduce the issue.

Re: Downloading the emoticons for NVDA
I got the problem solved, but I'm glad to have the other links anyway. I had to click on the Emoticons link and have that as the main page, then I was able to download the stable version. Again, thanks for the other links.
Thanks, Nance

Re: NVDA says "link dot" even when Symbol Level is Set to "some"
I’m not sure why this is happening. This may solvve the
problem.
You can try setting the level for the actual symbol to high. That
means it will only be spoken in high. I’m not talking about setting the
general level. There is more than one case for determining when a period
is spoken. Open Preferences..
In that menu,find and open punctuation/symbol pronunciation. Up arrow
to it, its faster.
type the period symbol. Tab twice and set the level to all if it
isn’t already. You will hear the level setting without tabbing.
In the list, type the period symbol again. There is a dot dot dot
symbol. Don’t change that unless you want the three dot symbol pronounced
at a different level.
Type the period symbol again.
If this period setting is not for all, set it to all as I described
above.
When you are finished, tab to and activate the ok button.

Re: Downloading the emoticons for NVDA
I don’t know why you are having a problem. Have you tried more
than one browser? The link works here. Try right arrowing so you
aren’t on the first letter of the link in your current browser and press
enter. See if that solves the problem. If not, try another
browser.
I haven’t looked in any detail at the description of this add-on but
NVDA already has the ability to announce emoticons. You can also place any
emoticon in the NVDA list in a document in the following manner:
New main steps start on new lines.
Open the NVDA menu with NVDA key n.
Press enter on ppreferences.
Up arrow to punctuation/symbol pronunciation. Press
enter.
You are in a dialog.
There are an enornous amount of emoticons and some other
symbols.
Shift tab to filter buy and type something. If you want to see
all emoticons with smile, type smile. Type any word or group of words, for
example, smiling face.
Tab once. You are now in a list of emoticons containing what
you type.
Find the one you want.
Press NVDA key f9 once.
Press NVDA key f10 twice quickly.
The emoticon is now on the clipboard.
Paste it into the document you are writing.
The add-on may do other things you want but my description may allow
you to do what you want without it.
