I wonder if each line is highlighted when the cursor is on it, and the 
speech during the subsequent blank line is triggered by the disappearance of 
that highlighting.  Does it help if, for this app only, you make the 
NewTextEvent function send its output unconditionally to the 
SayNonHighlightedText function?

Subject: [jawsscripts] quick heighlight window


Hi all.
I am running in to the following problem.

Using jaws 11 latest rev:

I am opening a window with a none standard control.
This control behaves as a read-only edit window.
Used to be with jaws 9 the window would act as a regular edit window.

1. One can still use the arrows to navigate as before, but now blank lines 
repeat the last
populated line's text.

2. As of jfw 10 when the window gains focus the entire screen from scroll to 
scroll bar is read.

3. The last condition does not repeat itself if one hits the next screen 
button.
So, I figure the window is flashing a heighlight at first for the first 
screen.

The program does not have a "heighlight, option for so long." to let the 
window remain, thus I
can't test how the window heighlights itself as this happens quite quickly 
as to judge by the
manual cursor attempts to find out its state.

Yet when one arrows down from a line which contains text, to a lower one; 
when blank, the
previous line is repeated.

I want the window to be read line by line normaly, or to be able to at least 
read the window,
and have the subsequent windows / screens read as the next screen button is 
pressed.

Will appreciate advice.

Thanks,

D C
