[nvda] Re: wINDOWS MAIL ERROR

Hi,
Thanks for reporting this bug. I seem to have broken something when I worked on getting NVDA to work with optimized Python.
Note this should only break windows mail, no other appModules should be affected. 

I will look in to this very soon

Thanks again
Mick

i HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT MEANS, can a developer or someone who understands this explain this? I know NVDA v0.6p3 is due out sometime in the next week, so I'm just putting this out there. One last thing, is it possible to add in a feature to automatically read the status bar when an application is opened, or when the status bar changes? This is minor, but I thought for people who cannot see, it may be useful so they have some idea what the application is doing rather than having to wait for a response from NVDA. The only example of this that I can find that may be useful is for windows mail or thunderbird, that way the user knows that the program is checking for mail rather than having to wait for nvda to focus. On that note, I do have one more thing. This may be true with other programs but for both windows mail and Thunderbird, when new mail arrives, I am forced to minimize and then alt tab back into the application for nvda to update focus on the inbox. This is not a complaint, I'm just curious. Is this an issue where the NVDA focus does not update when the state of the application or window changes? I would appreciate any help 

Thanks

Kendell
