Subject: OT Still/ Hams.Re: macosx.4.7: character backspace, Mathew, OT.
I had added /Mathew OT on subject line, but maybe VO didn't take the time
to read it all to ya. So this time I put it at the first of the subject
line.
Sounds like there's a few hams here, I know of at least one other in list
but he hasn't posted for a little while, and guessing there's probably
one or two more around, well hoping at least.
Didn't know you are a ham though Scot. Maybe just didn't catch your call
or something.
Later.

Kind of a long call for cw huh? Oh well, mine has a major twist
between that F and L.
Can come up with great phonetics for mine at least, but won't say them
via list.
Now done with off topic.

Think that's what most of us are hearing. The character to the left,
quite then often to late as far as I'm concerned.
Tried using the highlight idea of Shift and left arrow, a little more
accurate in placement, but not all that stable especially when moving
and VO wanting to tell me that whatever was highlighted.

Ok, I'm having one of those senior spells I suffer from time to
time. When pressing backspace or back delete, in 10.4.6 and back,
what would you hear when pressing that key. In other words would you
hear the letter being deleted or the one immediately to the left of
the cursor. I currently hear the one to the left of the cursor, but
only if I have VO set to announce each character as I type as I
stated before.
tnx

Hi
On mine it's a bit different. When I backspace in mail, I here
nothing at all. However, out of curiosity, I switched my typing
echo to characters (I usually have it off) and then I see the
behavior that you describe.

I just had this happen to me in mail last night but didn't know
for sure if it was related to the upgrade. I fill out a timesheet
form every night and email it; when I went to backspace/delete the
word "Date" so I ccould put in the coorrect date, instead of
hearing the lcharacter I was deleting I heard the next letter to
the left that was still there. It was confusing since it isn't the
behavior to which I've become accustomed and it continued at other
places in my email. In fact, I just tried it again and the same
thing happened. I deleted the letter "l" from "email" and instead
of hearing the "l" announced I heard "i".
