I too agree with this. The way the current verbosity options are set
up is good for new users. But for those of us who are experienced
users, and always multi-tasking and tabbing around, I think it would
be nice to have an option for us to customize what we want to hear WE speak.

Subject: Window titles - feature request
In the Verbose menu of ACTIVE, It is possible to check the box for
having WE report your Window Title, whenever you land on a Window,
i.e when Alt-Tabbing. This is a nice feature, but it has a small drawback:
If you, for instance, alt-tab to your Notepad window, it will read
'My Document.txt - notepad'. Same in Internet Explorer, and in
Outlook Express, it would read the Folder, and then tell you it is
in 'Outlook Express'. It is nice, in some cases I guess, to have the
full window title spoken. But in most cases, I only need to know ONE
of the two parts of the Title. In most cases, when I alt-tab through
my open windows, I don't need to be reminded if I am in Notepad,
Internet Explorer, Word or whatever. All I do need, is to know,
exactly which document/webpage/folder I am in. In other words, it
would be enough for me to hear 'My Document.txt', 'GWMicro.com',
'Inbox', and so forth. Specially the way it is now, you get tired of
hearing all the application names spoken, when you do an excessive
amount of alt-tabbing back and forth through a couple of hours. Say
you have a Word document open, and then do some research on the
internet, making notes in Word. You Alt-Tab to Word, get the
'Notes.doc - Word', message, do a bit of typing, Alt-Tab back to IE,
and hear 'Wikipedia.com - Internet Explorer', spoken. Do this
Alt-Tabbing back and forth 20 times the next hour, and your ears
are filled to the extend, they are about to fall off, with the
'WORD', and 'INTERNET EXPLORER' phrases. In general, it is to be
prefered, that you get the least amount of words spoken, that is
needed to have you do your job the most effectively. Well, at least
for oldtime-runners, this will be the case.
So, could there please, be an extra checkbox in the Verbose menu,
that would tell WE whether or not to include the App-name in the
Window title? It sure would have made my ears happy, and I guess many with me.
