Win XP, Office 2003, and WE7.11 running by now.
I have mentioned this before, and GW told it to have been fixed, but it shows
up to not be the case, at least on my system. The problems are in Microsoft
Excel.
1. Scrolling to a cell, then starting to type some text into the cell, the text
will show up in full, but the synth skips the first two characters. I.e, if I
type Window-Eyes, the synth will read it as if I had typed 'ndow-eyes'.
Scrolling to next cell, and then back to my first one, the synth reads all the
entered text correctly.
2. Ever so often, when scrolling through the cells, the Braille display shows
more than a cell at the same time. This is particularly the case, when several
contiguious cells holds numbers. You would then see things like:
0.59 5534.2 84 95 103.223
3. When editing a formula, the Braille display is not updating. If my Formula
reads a2:a57, and I want it to be edited, I go to the end (pressing end), then
backspacing - say twice - and the screen would now read a2:a, but the Braille
display still shows A2:A57. Typing 45, the screen would read A2:A45, but the
Braille display keeps showing A2:A57. Why is this, and why has it not been
fixed? :)
A fourth problem, is in the Outlook Express editing box, for entering the text
in the message. When backspacing after a typemismatch, rather often, the
character spoken is NOT the character that is actually deleted, but rather the
one to the left of the deleted one. I.e, you write Windowx, then press
backspace to correct the X, and you hear W. Quite frustrating, and must be even
so the more, for the ones not having a Braille line confirm their actual action.
What about the 'write message' thing, that is spoken all the time, when a
message gets too long? And the fact, that rather often, when arrowing up/down
in your message, while writing it, you end up with the synth simply telling you
Empty, and dinging on you. Will any of these issues be handled in the upcoming
version?
Thanks alot!
