Hi Damien, Can you give me a quick refresher please on your text field issue? (steps to reproduce etc) and I'll look into it.

Great Work, NV Access! NVDA 2017.4 is working very well for me in many Win10 apps, the Skype app for Win10, and working great in Edge and all other web browsers. Thank you so very much. I have almost totally given up other screen readers for NVDA. David Moore Sent from Mail for Windows 10

I‘m having this issue too, especially when navigating with up and down arrow line by line. When I navigate by ctrl + arrow keys, NVDA seems to react much faster.

Hi Quentin,
Unfortunately, I’m still seeing the text field related lags I mentioned
after the release of 2017.3 (namely announcements of text highlighting,
beginning/end of document/field messages etc). Luckily for me there was nothing
seriously important for me to need to upgrade (both 2017.3 and 2017.4 seem to be
concentrating on Braille and Windows 10, both of which are irrelevant for me at
present), but I felt it important to mention it again in case others are still
having these issues.
I would post it as an issue on GitHub, except that as far as I’m concerned,
that site seems to have made its way down from heaven on Mars. Forget the
programming elements and integrations with Git (which is an aeroplane cockpit in
and of itself), even posting issues seems to be a full day’s work for me.
Cheers.
Damien.
