Narrator is definitely different between windows 7 and 10.
The majority of changes came in 8/8.1.

Hey Bud,

You can load and unload Narrator with Windows-Enter. And you might want to look 
at its help. I went from Windows 7 to 10. So I don't know if these changes were 
made in Windows 8. But for me Narrator works considerably different now. Namely 
there are several Caps lock key combinations.

Hth,
Tom

windows speech

2015-11-01 Thread Bud Schwab via Talk

Hi guys,
I wonder how to access windows 10 built-in speech.  I know it's 
minimum but would be handy in case windoweyes should fail for some 
reason or other. Thanks.

Hello Bud.
The key combo you want to turn this on is
windows enter.
To turn it off it is the same key combination.
Sometimes it takes a little time for narrator to start speaking.

Hope this helps.

RE: windows speech

2015-11-01 Thread Jim Grimsby JR. via Talk
Windows 10 speech is not a screen reader.  It is a speech synthesizer.  The
voices are the same as they were in windows 8.  If on the other hand you are
talking about narrator you can access this at any time buy pressing the
windows and enter. Narrator for windows 10 actually is a lot better than
narrator has ever been under windows 10.  If you actually do want to use
windows speech then you would bring up the Window-Eyes control  panel with
ctrl+\. In the tree select devices.  Expand this and go down to speech.  In
the list of synthesizers  select Microsoft  speech api.  Now press tab to
the list of voices select the voice you want to use and press enter.
