Hi Rod: Yes. I know that the Screen and Keyboard punctuation settings are separately configurable. My goal is to have punctuation read in Google Docs the same way it is read in MS Word. That is, when I type it or when I cursor over it, but not when I read sentence-by-sentence or line-by-line. I have all punctuation turned off in the Screen menu for MS Word. From my experience with Google Docs, the only way to have punctuation read when I cursor over it is by turning punctuation on in the Screen menu of my browser. Unfortunately, this will also cause Window-Eyes to speak the punctuation when I ask Window-Eyes to read line-by-line and/or Sentence-by-sentence. 'Hope this clarifies my issue. I also hope I am missing something obvious. Thanks again.

If I have your goal wrong, consider the app called Toggle Punctuation and More 1.72, which allows the easy toggling of screen punctuation using Insert-Accent.

I don't like this solution as I don't wish to hear the punctuation spoken when I am reading by line, sentence etc.; I just want to be able to hear the punctuation when I cursor across it. The speaking of the punctuation when I type it is a keyboard punctuation issue. As for the phantom space issue, this may be related to the way the insertion point is reported, either by Window-Eyes or by Google Docs. Either way, it is quite awkward. I still have found no solution for re-enabling the editing of a document after erroneously entering Browse mode. -----Original Message----- From: Richard G Applegate [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, February 21, 2015 6:42 PM To: Window-Eyes Discussion List ([email protected]) Subject: Window-Eyes 9 and Google Drive Hello listers: I have just been tooling around with Google Drive and Window-Eyes 9. Below are my observations based on a very brief test: 1. For me, Window-Eyes does not read punctuation, either when I type it, cursor over it or when I backspace over it. 2. I'm not sure whether it is Window-Eyes or Google Drive but at times there appears to be a phantom extra space between words. 3. Upon hitting escape, I seem to have gone into browse mode which doesn't allow me to edit the current document. Unfortunately, I haven't found a way to get back into "edit" mode. I did try CTRL-SHIFT-a which purportedly took me out of Browse mode but I still was not able to edit my document. Tabbing did little to help. There is no "edit" on the page so I was unable to use the quick-nav method of finding the edit box and returning to "edit" mode. If anyone can point out my ignorance, on this issue only, or give me tips I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
