How would you envisage this working exactly? I assume that if one is using say all then any capitals used would be spoken as caps but when do you say the word which contains them? If you use a beep it could be open to misinterpretation as to which letter it is.

You always end up cursoring through to find it in any case.

Replying to briang1:

How would you envisage this working exactly?

In short: Like in other screenreaders, too. I use the Cobra screenreader, and used the Blindows screenreader before, and both had this feature. And I suppose Jaws and WindowEyes have it, too.

I assume that if one is using say all then any capitals used would be spoken as caps but when do you say the word which contains them? If you use a beep it could be open to misinterpretation as to which letter it is.

Sounds strange, but it works fine here. And if the feature is checkable nobody who don't need it or don't find it helpful keeps it switched off. The two already existing options where you can hear the capital letters have checkboxes, too. It would be just another checkbox or two that says beep for capital letters while continious reading or so.

OK, then, I agree with this more or less. It could be very handy for proof reading as when one hears a missing cap it should be obvious, and one can stop the say all and go back to fix it.
I'd probably go for a sound rather than a beep but whatever is simplest to do which won't break the reading. In a way this could be a toggle rather than a set and forget thing though as you will want to turn it off. The other solution is to have another sayall with it enabled. I fully realise we are running out of simple keystroke options though!

I think that the main idea is to just inform user, that there is capitalized letter somewhere in the spoken word. I prefer sounds as the word "cap" or "capitalized" may reduce attention of user, but this may be optional. So say or beep when word contains capitalized letter during continuous reading.

Marking this as a duplicate of #3286, as there is more specific discussion going on there even though it was filed after.
