Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

With SpeakTypedWords enabled, when I go back to correct a typing error, NVDA speaks only the last chunk typed.
Example:

  1. Type a Word as featrure (Note that it is written wrong) and press space. NVDA Will speak the Word.
  2. Backtrack by deleting characters until first R. Now the word will be feat.
  3. Complete the word feature correctly and press space. NVDA will speak ure instead of the full word.

Describe the solution you'd like

With SpeakTypedWords enabled, NVDA should always speak the entire word instead of just the last characters typed.

Describe alternatives you've considered

This addon provides a solution to the issue. Many users have been using it for months without reporting errors and some have requested that this should be the way NVDA works by default.

The original code for the addon is from @paulber19 and @LeonarddeR.

Additional context

I don't know if it is the best way to implement it and I don't feel able to incorporate it myself into the core. Could someone else take care of it? With this code or a better one if possible. I and many users would like this way for NVDA to speak the typed words.

The issue has already been submitted: #8065, so I'll close as duplicate.

Note that there has even been a tentative of PR from @LeonarddeR, #8110, which has not reached the master branch unfortunately. This could be of use for anyone who wants to revive this fix.

@CyrilleB79 CyrilleB79 closed this as not planned Won't fix, can't repro, duplicate, stale Oct 26, 2024
