Reported by briang1 on 2010-05-23 15:54
In the last stable release of nvda 2010.1, the edit ffields in this popular sound editor could not be read with the cursor keys, they only revealed contents when the cursor was in them, or as the text was being deleted. However now we can hear the contents as we cursor, but it has stopped actually reading the contents on entry as it use to. the cursor seems to be at the end of the current content, but the screenreader says they are blank when the cursor arrives in them with tab or shift tab.
Sometimes two numbers are read up to the first colon, for example in a time field, but otherwise blank is spoken.
I'm not sure what has made this strange behaviour, but thought it worth reporting.

Thinking of making a new ticket for better support of Goldwave, as there are issues with alert messages as well as edit areas and the tags for them in the latest versions.

If so would this be the best thing, or should I just raise seperate tickets for each issue?

Separate tickets please.

I can't reproduce this with Goldwave V5.58 and NVDA 2010.2beta2 nore the current NVDA main snapshot at time of this comment. I tabbed around the set markers dialog. Is there a better example of where this happens?

OK, there appear to be two different types of edit areas then, one reads but the cursor is not always where you think it is. This is the one you mentioned above. The other is demonstrated like this.

Load any file into goldwave

Go to effects/reverb and select, for example, concert hall in the presets. Shift/tab to the parameters and the edit areas appear blank, that is blank is announced, but if you use the cursors, you hear entries in them.
Hope this helps

Hi,
I cannot duplicate this in 2013.3-dev when using GoldWave 5.58/5.70 on my computer (5.70 is installed on a virtual machine running Windows 7). This is on my list of bugs to track as I'm writing the GoldWave app module for NVDA.

Hi,so if you for example go to filter, and parametric, go to bass boost then shift tab to the edit areas, do they actually read when you land on them as the upper one in this dialogue does, but the others do not unlessyou are deleting or moving through the contents with cursors. Its as if the contents are not shown untill one moves through them.

This is in the latest master snap and XP and Goldwave 5.58.

Hi,
After testing it, it appears that the value itself is not read. Thankfully, they are TNumEdit class and since we have an overlay class for these, fixing it might be trivial in the add-on.
I need to test if this has been fixed in GoldWave 6.

Well I cannot speak for version 6, as I have no hardware which will run it, but I did notice that not all edit areas in version 5 behave the same. some are silent but can be cursored through to hear the contents, others seem to read a value, but its different to the one you hear when you cursor through. I'm not sure how that works myself. it might actually be a feature, but its hard to tell.
Then there are others that just don't work at all. Unfortunately sometimes these are in the same dialogue.

Hi, yes it looks good to me now. I'd almost forgotten this one. I cannot test in the latest version though as it does not runon XP so it will have to wait till somone who is using the latest version to see if its any better.
There are some labels for fields that do not read, but most are tied up with complicated waveforms and the like so even if we heard them read, it would probably not make much sense as text.

Hi,
Confirmed that it works in GoldWave 6 beta.
I'll release a snapshot of GoldWave add-on with this fix applied. Thanks.

Comment 13 by briang1 on 2014-07-21 19:06
So is this fix something that can just be done with an updated add on, or does it require some code changes in nvda to work as well?

Sorry, not been keeping up to speed about this so I am a little confused now.

Hi,
For now, changes in the add-on would suffice, but I hope this can make it in o2014.3.

In [a96f37d]:

Numeric editable text fields in GoldWave are now handled correctly.

TNumEdit is now mapped to Edit. While GoldWave is the only application we know about that uses this, there are almost certainly others.

The only edit field I've had issues with is the mix position one, whch sometimes just says zero or zero zero, when its a long number separated as for time.

I wanted to get this into 2014.3, so we'll deal with the mix position field later. Can you please provide developer info for that field?

Well the time fields in most of the places cleary do not have the value of 0 as we see in this test, and the developer info shows that at least part of nvda knows what is in the field.

Hi,
Right, that's what I thought. I'll release a snapshot of the add-on which should fix this issue for TTimeEdit class. Thanks.

Hi,
Please try the new Goldwave add-on 2.0 snapshot from Community Add-ons website, which should fix this problem. Thanks.

Oh, I overlooked that. That would be an elegant way to do this. I will run a test build.

Oh, should I now download the add on again then?
I'm a bit confused as to state of updates in the next snap and the add on and whether I need to worry about having the fixes in twice, so to speak.

Hi,
In effect, yes. The add-on addresses areas in GoldWave that hasn't been touched by NVDA core yet (the time field, in this case). My policy is to release monthly snapshots for add-ons to get feedback from early adopters and to fix issues.
I normally recommend not installing development versions of add-ons, but in this case, I recommend that you install it in a non-production version of NVDA to make sure this problem is fixed.

OK just installed the add on ina copy of the next snapshot and both the time fields I used worked as you would expect here on version 5.70 in XP.
