I'm not sure what you mean by check the spell tab. You can't check the spell tab, it isn't a check item. It's a tab that announces that you are in the spell part of the dialog. If you mean check the items in the spell tab, meaning tab around and look at how they are set, that may help, but I doubt it. But there's no harm in trying.

I'll second Gene's suggestion that you do not uninstall Microsoft Office.

It is a simple matter to uninstall and reinstall Windows Live Mail (provided you have the installer downloaded already, and if you don't you can snag in in 7z zipped format here) and, provided you've been using IMAP access to get to your email account(s) all of your messages will have been retained on the server and will be visible again when you set up your account(s) in a fresh installation of WLM. If you've been using POP, with the conventional settings that delete messages from the server either on download or after a certain number of days, the issue becomes significantly more complicated if you need to keep old messages.

Anyone ever thought about making NVDA recognize NVDA or nvda as its own acronym?

Brian Vogel
 

In playing with a couple of things this morning it hit me that when NVDA sees either NVDA in all caps or nvda in lower case, using the synthesizer I'm using (SAPI-5) it always pronounces it as "en vda"  (I don't even know how to write out something I think would be pronounced correctly) rather than N V D A.

The probability of NVDA ever occuring, whether upper case, lower case, or mixed case as a stand alone word that is something other than the N V D A acronym is so vanishingly close to zero that I'd think building in recognition of itself, and saying N V D A like it does when starting up and shutting down, would be a nice touch.

Re: Reading of numbers

Brian Vogel
 

Regardless of whether one would want something like 2.2.23 read as two point two point twenty-three or two point two point two three the only likely way you're going to get that to happen is by using regular expressions to recognize "numbers not likely to be money or other standard 2-decimal place numbers."

The number string matched by the regular expression would then be broken apart into its component parts then spoken.   I had to do something similar for the word, "cup," which, for some unknown reason, was constantly being read as "Cuban pesos" if it occurred after a number, and I was dealing with recipes, so two Cuban pesos of flour made no sense.  Oddly enough, if you substituted "Cup", with a capital C, for "cup" and the synthesizer got that it would say "cup."

I'm trying to think about how a regular expression could be constructed for this if the number of point separated numbers is unknown and could be more than three number groupings.  It can be done, but I'm rusty in thinking up how it could be done.

Re: Email Client

That should have nothing to do with the problem.  Windows Live Mail doesn't use the Microsoft word processor's spell checker.  I don't have Word installed and the spell checker in the program works fine. You can experiment but I'm not sure what might happen if you uninstall and reinstall Word or Office.  It may damage something NVDA needs to function properly and you may have a new and more serious problem.  If anything, try reinstalling Windows Live Mail and I would be very reluctant to uninstall and reinstall Word or Office.  I wouldn't do it before asking the list about possible general effects on NVDA and if reinstalling gets rid of the problem I've seen discussed here that uninstalling causes.

I'm with everyone so far, but in different senses.

Thunderbird is indeed an excellent e-mail client overall and works
beautifully with NVDA and other screen readers.  One can teach basic use and
ignore all the bells and whistles not needed.  That being said, the less
sophisticated user can and often does get themselves into trouble by
fat-fingering something and triggering some function that they do not know
about, do not wish to trigger, and have no idea how to exit.  That is the
trouble with using a really full-featured e-mail client like Thunderbird.

I like Windows Live Mail 2012, and even though it's no longer officially
supported that is mostly because Microsoft decided to change their
proprietary access methods and did not wish to continue updating Windows
Live Mail.   It still serves perfectly well as a POP or IMAP e-mail client.
If you want to download a copy of the full offline installer for Microsoft
Essentials, of which Windows Live Mail is a part, it's on my Google Drive in
7-Zip format here.  I snagged a copy of the offline installer a couple of
weeks before Microsoft withdrew active support.

I have recently learned of another fairly simple email client, eM Client,
that looks quite good but I have not had a chance yet to evaluate it from an
accessibility standpoint.  The interface seems to be simpler than
Thunderbird's is, and that can be critical.   If you do evaluate this client
for accessibility please report back.

Re: Reading of numbers

Andre Fisher
 

In certain English speaking dialects, numbers are treated as single
digits after the decimal point is used. For example. 1.44 is 'one
point four four'. and 2.2.23 is 'two point two point two three'

Hi Robert,

Can you please clarify what behaviour you are getting vs what you

When I write 1.49.1 in Word or NotePad, exactly what is read depends on
the synthesizer I am using:

Using eSpeak NG, NVDA reads it as "one point four nine point one"
Using Microsoft Speech API Version 5, NVDA reads "one dot forty-nine
dot
one"

The exact text read will depend on the synthesizer, unless you have
created an entry in the speech dictionary which covers the text
encountered.

I did try just 1.49 and both synthesizers read it as "one point four
nine". At a guess, both synthesizers see this is a decimal number and
read
the numbers after the decimal point individually (since you wouldn't
usually say "one point forty-nine". There isn't as clear a rule on
numbers
with multiple dots / decimal places. For instance, I've heard "255" in
the
middle of an IP address pronounced as both "two five five" and "two
hundred
and fifty-five".

Re: donating

erik burggraaf <erik@...>
 

Hi Don,

I could be wrong, but I think NVAccess uses paypal for all transactions. Paypal has an option that allows users without paypal accounts to enter card information for one time use and so I suspect that's what you're seeing.

Paypal's systems are designed all screwy. I find a lot of niggling stuff especially on my devices which are all mobile. Whenever I call them for help they never seem to care overmuch. You can try it, but if you have another device you can try it on, that may save you an awful amount of frustration. You could also set up a paypal account. Then donating would become a kind of direct banking process and you get all the benefits, yes and the tribulations too, of having a paypal account.

Sorry all this is happening to you, but thanks for persevering. If there is anything I can actually do to help, I will be happy to.

Best,

Erik

Re: Email Client

Thanks for your suggestion.
I do have Microsoft Office installed but I think it was installed after WLM so therein lies the problem. It looks like I shall have either to reinstall WLM or download a separate spellchecker.

I'm with everyone so far, but in different senses.

Thunderbird is indeed an excellent e-mail client overall and works
beautifully with NVDA and other screen readers. One can teach basic use and
ignore all the bells and whistles not needed. That being said, the less
sophisticated user can and often does get themselves into trouble by
fat-fingering something and triggering some function that they do not know
about, do not wish to trigger, and have no idea how to exit. That is the
trouble with using a really full-featured e-mail client like Thunderbird.

I like Windows Live Mail 2012, and even though it's no longer officially
supported that is mostly because Microsoft decided to change their
proprietary access methods and did not wish to continue updating Windows
Live Mail. It still serves perfectly well as a POP or IMAP e-mail client.
If you want to download a copy of the full offline installer for Microsoft
Essentials, of which Windows Live Mail is a part, it's on my Google Drive in
7-Zip format here. I snagged a copy of the offline installer a couple of
weeks before Microsoft withdrew active support.

I have recently learned of another fairly simple email client, eM Client,
that looks quite good but I have not had a chance yet to evaluate it from an
accessibility standpoint. The interface seems to be simpler than
Thunderbird's is, and that can be critical. If you do evaluate this client
for accessibility please report back.

Re: Email Client

Hello Ron,
 
Thanks very much for your reply.  I think you have hit the nail on the head. I do have Microsoft Office installed and, presumably registered, because my free version of Window-Eyes is working fine, but I think the computer technician installed WLM before installing Microsoft Office and so that’s where the problem lies. It looks like I shall either have to re-install WLM or download a separate spellchecker.
 
Thanks once again for solving my problem.

Hi Peter,

 

Keep in mind that if you do not have a Microsoft Office product installed then the spell checker will not work in Windows Live Mail.  You can get a number of free spell checkers that will work with Windows Live Mail.  I haven't needed one for a while, but someone on the list will probably recommend one or you can Google Spell Checker for Windows Live Mail and find one.

Hi Robert,

I'm still not 100% sure which way you want the numbers to be read, but in
any case, yes, you should be able to force the behaviour you want using the
speech dictionary. If you have particular numbers that are specifically
used, then you could add entries for those, otherwise, you could use regex
to capture any numbers between full stops.

We try not to force NVDA to override the synthesizer too much out of the
box, because for many things, there are multiple ways of interpreting text
and we try not to make assumptions on that (for instance is "dr" as a word
Doctor, or Drive?).

Kind regards

Sorry for the late response. I would like to add to my note that after

means to mitigate this to fix this in the speech dictionaries so that

The test normally occurs when using in the eSpeak ng synthesizer which I

Hi Robert,

Can you please clarify what behaviour you are getting vs what you expect
exactly?

When I write 1.49.1 in Word or NotePad, exactly what is read depends on
the synthesizer I am using:

Using eSpeak NG, NVDA reads it as "one point four nine point one"
Using Microsoft Speech API Version 5, NVDA reads "one dot forty-nine dot
one"

The exact text read will depend on the synthesizer, unless you have
created an entry in the speech dictionary which covers the text
encountered.

I did try just 1.49 and both synthesizers read it as "one point four
nine". At a guess, both synthesizers see this is a decimal number and
read
the numbers after the decimal point individually (since you wouldn't
usually say "one point forty-nine". There isn't as clear a rule on
numbers
with multiple dots / decimal places. For instance, I've heard "255" in
the
middle of an IP address pronounced as both "two five five" and "two
hundred
and fifty-five".

Of course all folder and windows configs need to be re done in the new user. There seems to be no guarantee though that setting everything the same as the old one will not result in menu reading issues as well.

I don't think in Windows 10 that system restore is on by default
unfortunately.
I find it was a bit flakey on 10 anyway.
I'd be tempted to restore an old back up and try again. If its a major
update then it is usually possible to roll back to the old system.
However
menues that do not read can be due to many rhings, often as simple as a
DLL
used for accessibility not being registered with the system. Unfortunately
sfc /scannow seems not to rectify this problem when it happens.
I don't have access to ten as my machine blew up but in 7 a restore of
an
old back up fixed it. Suspect? An update to an office product did the
dirty
deed.

1. Find the icon for NVDA on your desktop.
2. 2. Hit alt enter to go into properties.
3. 3. Tab to the box that says something like “shortcut key none”.
4. 4. Type alt control and the letter N together for the shortcut.
5. 5. Tab to the ok button and either hit enter or the space bar. You
should have the shortcut back again. I’m not having a problem on

From what I've read it seems to be something to do with the last update when the new one is done. No I have no idea quite why, but previous windows updates have been known to cause such funnny things. always a good idea to try all your shortcuts when any update is done.
They normally can be easiliy edited in properties.
