NVDA Nemeth Code Support #8840

Closed rthomas2018 closed 2 months ago

rthomas2018 commented 5 years ago

Actual behavior:

When using NVDA, MathML expressions will output on my braille display in Nemeth code only if they are a single line in length.

Any expressions longer than a single line will read verbally, but will not provide any braille output.

Expected behavior:

As long as I have verbal output, I should also have braille output, even for longer expressions.

System configuration:

Dell Lattitude 5580 Intel Core I5
8 GB RAM Motherboard: Dell Inc. 0413VC

Note: These issues have been seen on another system. I don't know the specs for that unit.

NVDA Installed/portable/running from source:

Installed version of NVDA.

NVDA version:

2018.2.1

Windows version:

Windows Pro 10 64 bit

Name and version of other software in use when reproducing the issue:

Is this while using MathPlayer?

It seems that the problem is a lack of braille output for multi-line expressions, rather than no Nemeth support at all. If so, the issue title should be updated to reflect that.

This should be fixed now that the braille can follow speech. You can set braille to follow speech in braille settings in NVDA 2024.2 Beta. Does this solve your problem?

@Adriani90, perhaps I'm missing something, but I don't see how this would help? @rthomas2018's issue is that Nemeth expressions longer than a single line aren't being output. Your solution would output the math in worded form, wouldn't it? Regardless, this issue is presumably with Math Player which is no longer supported.

Sascha thanks for looking into this, yes you are right.
