Error heard when switching input languages in Windows 8

[nvaccessAuto]

Reported by nvdakor on 2012-10-11 22:57 Using Win8 with both English U.S. and Korean IME layout. An error is heard when switching languages in Windows 8 by pressing Windows key+SPACE. Here's the log when the error occurs:

IO - inputCore.InputManager.executeGesture (15:49:32): Input: kb(laptop):windows+space ERROR - eventHandler.executeEvent (15:49:32): error executing event: gainFocus on <NVDAObjects.UIA.UIA object at 0x03EA9B30> with extra args of {} Traceback (most recent call last): File "eventHandler.pyc", line 136, in executeEvent File "eventHandler.pyc", line 84, in init File "eventHandler.pyc", line 91, in next File "appModules\explorer.pyc", line 152, in event_gainFocus File "eventHandler.pyc", line 91, in next File "NVDAObjectsinit.pyc", line 823, in event_gainFocus File "NVDAObjectsinit.pyc", line 767, in reportFocus File "speech.pyc", line 317, in speakObject File "speech.pyc", line 235, in speakObjectProperties File "baseObject.pyc", line 34, in get File "baseObject.pyc", line 110, in _getPropertyViaCache File "NVDAObjects\UIAinit.pyc", line 548, in _get_columnNumber COMError: (-2147024809, 'The parameter is incorrect.', (None, None, None, 0, None))

Thanks.

Hi, does not happen on Windows 10, so limiting the scope to Windows 8.1 for now.

Confirmed. Using NVDA master-14274,18073792 (temporary copy) on a Windows 8.1 system, I was alarmed when I was able to successfully and consistently replicate these errors consecutively because the error sounds were quite frightening. :) Assuming you have more than one keyboard layout to toggle between (I have three; Hindi Traditional, English India and English US), follow the below steps to replicate the described error. STR

• Wherever in Windows your focus is, press Windows+Spacebar.
• If NVDA does not play the error sound at this first go itself, press Windows+Space again until you do hear the error sound being played. In my limited testing, NVDA never takes more than three presses of Windows+Space to play the error sound.
• Once you hear the error sound once, press the read current line command (NVDA+L in my laptop) again and again to be greeted by a constant series of error sounds. I am unsure if the error produced by Windows+Space is different from that produced by a subsequent NVDA+L, so I'll post each of them below respectively:

Please let me know if any further diagnostic information is required for troubleshooting purposes.

@bhavyashah is this still reproducible on Windows 8.1?

[Adriani90]

No updates since almost three years, I cannot reproduce this with las alpha of NVDA. Closing as abandoned and works for me. Please comment on this if you are still seeing this issue and we can reopen it. Thanks.
