Re: 3.3, wp8, reading paragraphs
I just ran a little test with the Read paragraph command, WP8, and Word 8 with both JFW3.2 and JFW3.3. Both JFW apps were updated with the latest patches. In Word, the command worked quite well when using JFW3.2, but it was slow as was mentioned on this list this morning. With Word Perfect 8, the Control-Down Arrow command behaved as if it were the Say All command and the Control-Up arrow command acted as if it were the Say Prior line command. I had forgotten that this is why I had given up using these commands a long time ago. The commands were very sluggish when JFW3.3 was active. This should be mentioned to HJ as a small problem. As for me, I will continue to use JFW3.3 with WP8 thanks to the many fixes HJ made in the new build. Suzanne Tritten, The Blind Avenger. - Visit the jfw ml web page: http://jfw.cjb.net

Hi Sue, Yes I have experienced this. If I press Cntl-UpArrow the speech goes silent for a few seconds and I have to press up and down arrow a few times before i get it back.

Re: 3.3, wp8, reading paragraphs
Yes. I believe I have the current patch. Unless there has been another patch in the last 24 hours, I have the current patch. Thanks. Stacy.

Re: 3.3, wp8, reading paragraphs
I use Word 8 and find that when reading by paragraph there is a delay of up to 15 seconds between the key press and the paragraph being spoken. > A client reports that after upgrading to 3.3 and the new patch, she can no > longer use control + up and down arrow to move between paragraphs in a > Word Perfect 8 document.

Re: 3.3, wp8, reading paragraphs
Well, here's what I've decided to do for now. There are some features of 3.3 that I like. There are also glitches. I'm keeping both of them on board for just such problems with two different shortcut keys. Stacy.
