Tom, I’m running Windows 7, Outlook 2010, and IE 11. I just used control shift r on your reply and the previous messages. I used several different keys to stop, and each time it stayed stopped and stopped right where speech left off.
I went to amazon.com and tried control shift r, and it performed about the same except that it sometimes did lieve the cursor a line or two above where speech left off. I also tried it on the regular facebook page and that didn’t work at all well. Of course, facebook doesn’t work well besides read-to-end. I use facebook and do okay with the regular by learning the quirks and how to get to what I want, but with the beta the quirks have changed and multiplied. I’m wondering how read-to-end should work on a constantly changing web site. Should it jump back to something that changes above where it’s reading? Maybe it should stop and say “change above”.

When I press any key, speech does stop, but restarts. Speech then resumes. As a result, the cursor continues to move. When I press another key, the speech stops and then quickly restarts again, and the cursor keeps moving. I believe the cursor keeps moving during the brief split second when reading has temporarily stopped. I would need to have sighted assistance to absolutely verify this, but that is what I think is happening. It happens more with long E-mails and large web pages..

Instead of reading you 24 lines and leaving the cursor at the beginning, Window-Eyes now moves the cursor down as it reads as in a “read-to-end”. If you press a key while Window-Eyes is still speaking, that keystroke serves to stop speech and Window-Eyes should leave the cursor where you last heard speech. The second keystroke does its function of closing the message.

Here is the intended message! Hi group! Not certain of whether this is a bug in the beta, or something placed into the beta for some other reasson. When I am in thunderbird and I go to closed an msg or bring up the menuu for writing a new msg I now have to press the CTRL twice. I wonder if anyone else is experiencing this? If this was place into the beta I am wondering why? Can someone please advise? Much THANKS! de <KF8LT><Jim Wohlgamuth> If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
