Hello stacey, and welcome to the list. I think the echoing of letters before speaking of a desktop icon is down to keyboard voice being on and I can't find any way of silencing this being spoken unless the keyboard voice is turned off, which you wouldn't want. Maybe someone else knows the answer.
I can answer the laptop keyboard question. the part of the manual you are after is under appendix A Hot keys quick reference guide. open out that item with right arrow key and go down to keyboard layouts. the three keyboard layouts for w-e are under that section. Pressing enter loads the page which and pressing F6 enables browse mode to look at the table. Here's a problem though; if you're not used to W-E table commands then it might be a little difficult to navigate. Wish I could point you to a text file for this which would give you less grief as a new comer to W-E. Maybe someone else will address that. Ray Stacey Robinson wrote: Hello, I am Stacey Robinson. I'm new to the list. I'm a jaws user but trying very hard to learn window eeyes. I've been using the latest demo. 7.11 I think. I've got my syncbraille 20 up and running. I've also gotten most of the voice settings the way I like them. I've chosen to have words announced as I type them. When I am on the desktop and I press o for outlook express, WE says o before saying outlook express. What setting can I change so I do not hear letters before the names of icons? Also, how do I change this? My menus are at the beginner level right now. I've also downloaded and am slowly going through the tutorial that was on the gw website. One final question, I have the latest manual on my voice sense in text and would like to read about the laptop layout and what keys are used for various commands. I couldn't find a laptop section in the manual. Where would I look for that? Thanks so much. Have a blessed day, Stacey Robinson and GEB dog Chesley Eagleville, Tennessee.
