Arrow down till you reach jaws configuration manager and hit enter. 2. Once inside the configuration window, hit alt plus s to open the settings' menu, then hit the letter v to open the verbosity dialog. You'll land on a set of radio buttons that controls which verbosity level you want to set. You should know beforehand which level of verbosity you are on. Then tab to the preferences of the level you want to change. As you might know, jaws offers 3 verbosity levels: beginner, intermediate and advanced. Press enter on the button you want to modify its options and a new dialog will pop up. 3. Now, hit the letter T to jump to a checkBox called toolTip and check it with space. tab to Ok and press enter. You are back in the first dialog, tab to ok and hit space bar to close it. 4. Press control plus s to save your modifications and hit alt plus F4 to close the configuration window. Remember, you should use the verbosity level which you modified not another one. I mean, if you have checked the toolTip for the beginner level, the new changes will effect your jaws behavior only if you are using that verbosity level. Now, whenever yu land on a file or folder while arrowing, you'll hear a banch of information to that file or folder. However, give jaws room to announce those informatio... Hope that helps, otherwise, feel free to contact me on skype, will sort that out with you Regards Hamid AITOUZNAG Skype: hamidgeni MSN: hamid.ma...@hotmail.com Twitter: hamidgeni On 23/06/2010 21:11, David La Caille wrote: > Now ware do one find this check box? > I looked and I am not seeing it. > > > -----Original Message----- > From: blind-computing-boun...@jaws-users.com > [mailto:blind-computing-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Hamid Aitouznag > Sent: Friday, 18 June 2010 08:48 AM > To: blind-computing@jaws-users.com > Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] Finding the total run time of a group of > songs > > Hi mike, > > There is another way to get a good amount of information about the files > you are arrowing while in a folder, including the bitrate, lenth, size... > > You just have to check a checkbox in the jaws configuration manager > untitled toolTips, once you do so, you will be able to hear a lot of > information related to the file you are on without need to look up its > properties.
