Line wrapping and you.

I did check the FAQ, but no luck.

Currently, I'm experiencing issues in regards to lines in the output window.
Things like only showing half of the line, showing only the middle of it, or trimming it. The thing is that it doesn't happen all over the screen in the client when I'm playing. Only just about three or four lines upwards, sometimes it doesn't do it at all. I experienced this recently.

I wish I could provide you a screenshot to see it for yourselves so you might better understand what I mean, but I'll need a proper picture program that's actually accessible with my screen reader!

Any ideas so far?

If you need an image, if anyone around here uses JAWS...someone might just be able to tell me what I can use to get things right.

Can you clarify a bit please?

You say you are using a screen reader so I am presuming you are having difficulty seeing the screen itself. Does that mean the screen reader is not reading all the lines correctly? Or you believe they are not being drawn correctly?

I am trying to establish whether the real problem is whether the lines are being drawn, or whether they are being read out.

Yes, you are correct.

I believe it is not being drawn correctly on several occasions. It's recently started happening, actually. It never used to do it.

The screen reader reads everything fine, but the problem is when I have to read it over again by using the manual navigation keys.

It still isn't clear to me how using the navigation keys causes the window to be re-read.

Putting that aside for a moment, if this has suddenly started happening, what has changed?

Have you upgraded versions, and if so, from which version to which version?

Have you added plugins or triggers? Or made some scripting changes?

Is it possible to revert and make the problem go away? For example, re-installing an earlier version? Disabling plugins? Disabling triggers?
