Dennis,
There are still hyperactive windows in Window-Eyes. However standard
windows also have several statuses, one of which is "Speak." It is
possible
that setting a window around the area to "Speak" might be adequate. Of
course, there may be a challenge to get it to not speak when something
else
occupies that point, but you should be able to do that. These are very,
very old features of Window-Eyes, but it is possible that scripting what
you
want might work better, I don't know.
Best regards,
Steve Jacobson

Subject: Can I accomplish the described task using WindowEyes
Hello everyone,
I am new to WindowEyes, and I am hopeful I can use it to solve the
following
software application. A program will be running on a PC which will be
receiving position data from a machine I will be controlling. A specific
region on the screen will be receiving the changing 4-digit numerical data
in the form 8.273 or -1.047. When a new value is received by the PC, the
previously displayed value is discarded and is replaced by the new value
in
the same location on the screen. I would like to have WindowEyes
automatically read the number aloud as soon as the number changes without
me
having to go to the keyboard to interact with the PC, because my hands are
being occupied controlling the machine. I recall that many years ago that
WindowEyes had a feature called something like hyper active windows where
a
region on the screen could be monitored for a change, and when a specific
result occurred at that location, this could trigger an event. Does this
capability still exist in the cu
rrent version of WindowEyes, and if so can it be used to accomplish what I
have described? Thanks for taking the time to read this post, and I look
forward to hearing your thoughts on what I have described or other
solutions.
All the best,
Dennis
