I've done just this so many times till I finally realized the
difference in layouts. I have a laptop and a desktop and keep
switching and forgetting keystrokes.
I need to be careful using nvda plus a to read to end while in
thunderbird as a alone archives a message.

Are you using NVDA in desktop keyboard layout or
laptop keyboard layout? NVDA+down arrow is the Desktop layout
keystroke to read to end. NVDA+a is the laptop keyboard layout
shortcut.
To make it a bit more confusing, NVDA+down arrow, in laptop
keyboard layout, moves the review cursor to the next line, so
if you are in laptop layout and press that keystroke, it will
seem like you've entered the read to end command and NVDA is
simply reading the next line down and then stopping.
If you are definitely in desktop keyboard layout and NVDA
is stopping partway through a paragraph, could you please give
a bit more information about the exact program you are in or
where it does and does not work?
Kind regards

Hi all
Sorry, I didn't pay attention when this topic was
discussed in earlier posts as I haven't come accross that
problem then.
Now however I do experience nvda reading to the end of
the paragraph when pressing the nvda + down-arrow keys.
Unfortunately I haven't seen a post with the solution. Can
you please help ?
Thanks.

Hi friends,
I Have installed
NVDA on a machine which has a bluetooth keyboard and
I can’t find the insert key, not sure if it has one,
it is the Apple style layout.
I Need to bring

the keyboard layout to be laptop but I can’t perform

Let me say at the outset, I usually hybernate my computer when
I'm through with it for the day. When I have this issue, running
with add-ons disabled does not help. I even completely
uninstalled NvDA. by 'completely' I mean I also removed
appData\roaming\nvda and all its subdirectories. When I
reinstalled NvDA, the issue was not resolved. I shut down the
computer and rebooted several times. No joy. I chose 'restart'
several times. No joy. Then, one morning when I brought the
system out of hybernation, everything worked properly.
I had trouble with read to end with Notetab ++, Thunderbird v 68,
Firefox and Brave browsers.
I'll save the log next time it happens.

FIrstly Leslie,
No, we haven't changed anything from our end, you should be
able to press NVDA+A (Laptop keyboard layout) or NVDA+down
arrow (desktop keyboard layout) to say all, in a document, a
web page or an email.
Now as for what is happening, as Gene mentioned, a log
would help, ideally at Debug level, and ideally with add-ons
disabled (do you have any add-ons?)
Looking through our issues I found: https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues/10852 about
say all in Firefox or Wordpad which was resolved by the user
running the COM registration fixing tool. To do that, press
NVDA+N, then press T for tools, then down arrow to "Run COM
registration fixing tool" and press ENTER.
There are a handful of other closed issues which were
either from using broken add-ons, or illegal ones, or other
things which have been fixed and merged in NVDA 2019.3 and
earlier.
One which is still open is https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues/4119 which
is an issue in Libre Office at least. Last time I looked at
this issue, the workaround I found which resolved it, was when
you open a document in Libre Office, press CONTROL+END to jump
to the very bottom of the document, then CONTROL+HOME to come
back to the top, then say all should work.
I just tested and it looks like that issue is still present
in Libre Office 6.3.0.4 using the latest NVDA alpha. That
isn't isn't in WordPad to my knowledge however. As far as I
know, that is caused by a bug in Libre Office and has pretty
much always been there.
I just update to Libre Office 7.0.0 and it still behaves
the same.
Quentin.
Unless I press NVDA plus A I can never
read a full email. This just started with the newest
update. If I want to skip down through a long message I
need to press control plus down arrow. If I don’t press
those keys, I can’t keep moving through the email. I
thought something I did to my computer did this until
someone else in the class I’m taking had the same problem
and we both have NVDA. Is this a bug or is this the way
you want as a new NVDA. Thing? I couldn’t find it in the
commands.

Here is something you can try. I don't know if it will work in Libre Office but see if this is a good work around. It works in Word10 Starter. I don't know the laptop command. The desktop command is shift numpad insert numpad minus, the rightmost key on the top row of the numpad. In other words, hold shift and numpad insert and while doing so, press numpad minus. If you press it twice, it moves the carret to the focus of the object navigator. Be in object navigation mode. This won't work if you don't.
If you are inn object navigation, the entire document you open is seen by NVDA as one object. You can read from beginning to end with object navigation commands. To test whether this procedure works, do the following using laptop keyboard commands if you are using a laptop. I don't know them; I'll give the desktop commands.
Open a document. Start reading with read to end of navigator object, numpad plus. See if the document reads without interruption.
If you want to move to where you stop reading, the navigator will be there but if you want to work with the document and move the carret there, issue the command I gave earlier, shift num;pad insert numpad minus. Issue it twice quickly. You can keep holding the shift but when you issue it quickly, you must release all the other keys including numpad insert. that will move the cursor to where the navigator is, in other words, to where you stopped reading.
See if this work around works in Libre Office.

I've seen something like three posts complaining about read to end stopping before it should. I don't recall how you want logs sent, but maybe a log from when this happens would show something. On some web pages, read to end stops two or three times when I'm reading an article. That is one reason why I use an old, very old version, since I'm using Windows 7 and this old version meets almost all my needs, and it doesn't happen with that version.
Since I've only seen something like three messages saying that a user has this happen, it may not be a common bug, but maybe this discussion will help us know.

keystroke to read to end. NVDA+a is the laptop keyboard layout
shortcut.
To make it a bit more confusing, NVDA+down arrow, in laptop
keyboard layout, moves the review cursor to the next line, so
if you are in laptop layout and press that keystroke, it will
seem like you've entered the read to end command and NVDA is
simply reading the next line down and then stopping.
If you are definitely in desktop keyboard layout and NVDA
is stopping partway through a paragraph, could you please give
a bit more information about the exact program you are in or
where it does and does not work?
Kind regards
Quentin.

Hi all
Sorry, I didn't pay attention when this topic was
discussed in earlier posts as I haven't come accross that
problem then.
Now however I do experience nvda reading to the end of
the paragraph when pressing the nvda + down-arrow keys.
Unfortunately I haven't seen a post with the solution. Can
you please help ?
Thanks.

Hettie,
First, I do recall encountering this issue with LibreOffice but
this was many years ago. I'll give it a try with NVDA 2020.2 with
LibreOffice 7.0, which was recently released. Also, which
synthesizer are you using? I ask because Acapela recently released
a new version of its NVDA driver which they report corrects a read
all issue although they did not go into specifics as to what the
problem actually was.

Hi Quintin
After trying the read-to-end in thunderbird and wordpad it
seems to be a problem with LibreOffice. I can't upgrade to
Microsoft Office 10 and tried LibreOffice as an alternative as
it has a word processor as well as a spread sheet unction.
Wordpad can perform all I need but I need another program that
can read and work with Excel, anyone has ideas of what other
accessible software I can use?
Thanks
