PLEASE HELP! All I want to do is highlight a paragraph at a time (offline, via docs) and have the narrator read it to me, but it is absolutely all over the place, reading TONS of info I simply don't care about, and despite the full paragraph highlight, it only reads the top line, how can I solve for this? And sometimes I will want to "select all" and usually use the hot key "ctrl+a", but it doesn't seem to work when the narrator is on?? ...I just want it to read whatever I highlight and that's it......HELP :(
Wonder if you'd be willing to go back and match audio levels throughout? I set volume for your opening remarks, then your audio gets very low, and the Narrator voice is loud again.
Hello DUKEofWAIL, Thank you for taking the time to comment, I appreciate the feedback. Sorry about the audio. Short answer; I'm not sure how, and will need to watch some, how to, UA-cam videos on this subject. Long answer. I'm currently in training for a new job and trying to fit in other projects, so it won't be any time soon. I'm trying out new recording software, OBS Studio and, editing software, ShotCut as and when I can spare the time between studying and practical training. I was approached by Community Voluntary Services Tendring last March 2020 to make a videos for their vulnerable clients; as you can tell I had never made a video before. Kind regards Lee

Excellent video. Trying to get narrator to read chat in OBS when live-streaming in UA-cam. Can’t get it to read the chat.
Can Narrator read other apps or programs like fiverr or the internet ? Or , it is only available for notepad ?
