Re: Identifying capital letters

[Sarah k Alawami]

Hmm. I just listen for my flaws in that matter and fix them as I go, if I can 
catch it, but I don't know the answer to that one. As one of my profs said 
once,  Anyone? Anyone? 

Take care.

 Hi,
 
 I frequently have the habit of accidentally typing the second letters
 of words as capitals as well as the first, I suppose because I type
 quite quickly.  I've noticed that, when just arrowing up and down
 lines of text, VO doesn't read such words any differently to normal.
 I have to arrow along letter by letter to realise there's a problem.
 Is there any way to get VO to pronounce these mistyped words
 differently?  I mean, say I'm in Textedit, and I'm just using cursor
 up and down to read lines…these words don't come up as mis-spelled, so
 the only way I can check is to read every letter which takes too
 long…any idea?
 
 Thanks,
 Catherine

Re: Identifying capital letters

[Catherine Turner]

Hi both,

Thanks for your suggestion but I can't get it to do what I want.  I
changed it to play a tone when encountering a capital letter.  THis
seems to make it make a tone when I type a capital letter, but what
I'm bothered about is knowing about the capitals when I'm arrowing up
and down to read lines of text.  It doesn't seem to make any
difference to how it reads when I do this.  In textedit I'd like to be
able to arrow up and down the lines and have VO make some indication
of the caps without also having to arrow left/right along a
line…should this be possible?  It's not doing that at the moment,
perhaps it makes a difference what the cursor tracking options are set
to…any ideas…?

Thanks,
Catherine

Re: Identifying capital letters

[Sarah k Alawami]

Lol. yeah that's where it is. I have it  actually turned off as I just spell 
check most of the time and I don't' even pay attention to the tone or the word 
misspelled anymore as I tuned it out.  I to also type way too fast for my own 
good but want to type even faster. 66.5  wpm is dreadful. lol!

Good luck.

Hello Catherine,

Try looking in the VO Utility, Verbosity, and on the Text tab. You can ask VO 
to play a tone, which is my personal favourite. But there are other options.

Re: Identifying capital letters

[Sarah k Alawami]

It's in the verbosity settings under voice over utility under I believe 
announcements. You can have it play a tone but I'm sure you might be able to 
hear it with hope vs HOpe, which is one of my more common ones. lol! I have it 
say misspelled often, or I just spell check toward the end of the what ever it 
is I'm writing and hope it picks it up.

Tc all and good luck.

Identifying capital letters

[Catherine Turner]

Hi,

I frequently have the habit of accidentally typing the second letters
of words as capitals as well as the first, I suppose because I type
quite quickly.  I've noticed that, when just arrowing up and down
lines of text, VO doesn't read such words any differently to normal.
I have to arrow along letter by letter to realise there's a problem.
Is there any way to get VO to pronounce these mistyped words
differently?  I mean, say I'm in Textedit, and I'm just using cursor
up and down to read lines…these words don't come up as mis-spelled, so
the only way I can check is to read every letter which takes too
long…any idea?

Thanks,
