It is another Janet who was asking about voices for NVDA. AS for "find", I have tried both versions. Thanks, Janet B

I ask this because NVDA can work w/2 versions of the find command. The well-known one is control f. That one actually is generally owned by the particular application in use, ie, Word, Notepad, etc. The 2nd 1, NVDA +control + f, is generally used in a "virtual cursor" situation, ie, a web browser, etc. So I guess the question I'm really asking--& taking the very very long way around the barn to do it--is whether you've tried both commands w/this program. Also, regarding your voices thread, I note that your email is a Canadian one, so you should have Canadian voices installed by default, & I suspect that's what you're hearing. If so, you're correct--they're absolutely stunning--& the good news for you is that you won't likely even have to install them, as they already are if you've set your region to Canada.

O, gosh, I'm so sorry, Janet. I'm an idiot. What can I say?

I can't count the number of Chrises and Mikes, to name but two, that I see within and across groups. And remembering which Chris or Mike is which is a PITA. Groups.io actually gives you the ability to tweak your Display Name, among other things, on this specific account page: https://groups.io/account?page=profile&member_info_id=0 You do, of course, have to log in or be logged in prior to going there. Even if you choose a distinctive display name that's better than a single, dirt common (and that's not an insult, just an observation, as Brian is about as dirt common as given names come) display name. Hence the reason I chose to have my full, real name as my Display Name. But I could have gone with something like "Bri the Tech Guy" and it would still be very easy to distinguish me from all the other Brians who show up simply as "Brian" or with no display name at all. -- Brian - Windows 10, 64-Bit, Version 21H1, Build 19043 I do not understand why some seek to separate a person from their actions.

Thanks, Brian, :). She was incredibly gracious about it all. I guess

it is an easy mistake to make. 1 time I had an acquaintance whose girlfriend's name was also Jackie accidentally send me some very private material that was clearly meant for her lol. In that case auto-complete struck again. In my case it was stupidity pure & simple.

Brian, I have noticed that your last-name pronunciation varies
from one synth to another. Inquiring minds want to know how the
man himself says it. On 07/17/2021 5:26 PM, Brian Vogel
