NVDA 2011.3rc1 has just been released. This is a release candidate, which means that unless any critical issues are found, this will be almost identical to the final 2011.3 release.
Note that some translations may not yet be updated. They will be updated by the time of the final 2011.3 release.
Changes from beta1 to rc1:
- Updated documentation.
- Updated translations.
- NVDA no longer fails to recognise that the focus has moved when switching windows in some cases; e.g. opening a new window in Mozilla applications. (#1851)
- With mouse tracking enabled, moving the mouse over certain editable text fields (such as in Synaptics Pointing Device Settings and SpeechLab SpeakText) no longer causes the application to crash. (#672)
- NVDA no longer freezes when moving around in the system menu in Internet Explorer 8 on Windows XP. (#1831)
- Basic support for Design Science MathPlayer.
- NVDA now functions correctly in several about dialogs in applications distributed with Windows XP, including the About dialog in Notepad and the About Windows dialog. (#1853, #1855)
- Symbol pronunciation and character descriptions for Chinese are now reported correctly.
- If automatic language switching is disabled, NVDA's user interface language is used for symbol pronunciation and character descriptions instead of the language reported by the synthesizer. (#1861)
- Reviewing by word now works correctly in Windows Edit controls. (#1877)
- Updated eSpeak speech synthesizer to 1.45.47. (#1879)
- Moving out of an editable text field with leftArrow, upArrow or pageUp while in focus mode now correctly switches to browse mode when automatic focus mode for caret movement is enabled. (#1733)
