nvda_snapshot_brltbl_20160315 is the name of the file in the list, if
that's what you mean. I got it back in March and although the
experimental UEB tables added to it weren't perfect (Joseph told me it
was no trivial matter to fix the minor problems I brought up when I was
first testing it) it's better than the current one, which lacks "ea",
"cc" and "ff" contractions, as well as only showing format terminators
and emdashes (among other symbols) being replaced with eight cells of
weird code that disrupt the flow of reading.

That should graduate to master soon, if people don't find problems
with it.

For the braille table, what snapshot are you using now? You'll probably
need to merge it when 2016.2 comes out.

And the Master snapshot doesn't have the braille table I'd prefer to
use, which is why I got that other snapshot when I did. The newer more
experimental table fixed the problem of emdashes being replaced by
eight
cells of nonsense that took up more space than necessary, and
formatting
representations, and missed contractions...


I can't use this.

I believe the new production version will be released in about a
month. However, I would expect the master snapshot to be probably
stable or reasonably stable. You can use a portable version if you
want to evaluate it without installing it. I haven't used new
snapshots fir a while but my experience in the past has been that the
snapshots I've used have been stable. That doesn't mean that they
all
are. They are versions still in development and not beta tested.

The page to see and download the latest snapshots is

Hi,


The reason the driver was still trying to do something was that I had
used the old snapshot I had in conjunction with my display to read
for a
bit, then had disconnected the display without resetting the
"display"
setting in Braille Settings to "No Braille". As I said, it lasted
longer, but still locked up at the most inconvenient time...


Can I have a link to this master snapshot? And is this building
toward
the next release or are some things not ready for that yet? If the
former, when is the next release? Is it some time this month, or
next?

Hey, before you have to format the computer. Why not run chkdsk and
then go
into the bios and see what can be the problem. I'd use format as
the
last
resort. Or if you just want to do it and get it over with. then go
ahead and
do one. Good luck!

Subject: Re: [nvda] NVDA still freezing, don't know what the

It just happened AGAIN. This time, with no Braille Display
plugged in,
but still in Word. My sister described what she saw as "It's
circling
and the screen is foggy," so I'm assuming it was hanging. It took

longer

than normal to shut down, and longer than normal to start up
properly,
and apparently Windows Explorer lagged for a few seconds. I
don't know
how to recover my writing (I tried one of the previous times this
happened by restoring the auto recovery file from the Recycle bin

but it

didn't work...).


Anyways, here's the log. I hope this time I can get an answer
for why
this is happening. I'm getting seriously concerned at this point.

Hello William,


I'm definitely not an NVDA proficient user, but your last sentence made me think.


Are you using a laptop, by any chance?


If so, you should set your keyboard layout to "Laptop"

(NVDA Menu - Keyboard settings), and then follow the list of commands and keyboard shortcuts for laptops, rather than the one for desktops.

There is a program called unchecky that will allow you to install any
software without any adds, or any unwanted software getting downloaded with
what you want. Free Make might download and install better if you install
the unchecky software. Just do a Google search for unchecky. Take care.

freemake does have opencandy in it though you will have to do a /nocandy
on the installer so it does not load with adds.
