Hello,
Newbie here. Switching from JAWS to Window-Eyes. Simply cannot
stomach FS's arrogance.
Anyway, off to a bit of rocky start on this list. My first message
from this list was one I will not talk about. No religion, politics,
or football. And I mean football, not that stuff Americans call
football.
First, I want to change the voice synthesizer for the login screen. I
am using Vista.
1. Press Control-Backslash to open the Window-Eyes control panel.
2. Press Alt-F for File followed by L to open the set active profile
dialog.
3. Change to the "all users" profile. This is the group of settings
that Window-Eyes loads at the login screen.
4. Make any desired changes, save the settings, and switch back to your
default profile.
KB 1093 on our support website gives details on the Window-Eyes folder
structure at http://www.gwmicro.com/kb1093.
Second I am wondering why on some web pages the voice seems erratic
and choppy, while on others it is quite natural. This is especially
true on Read to End command execution
1. From within your web browser, press Control-Backslash to open the
Window-Eyes control panel.
2. Navigate to the screen menu.
3. Choose "rad paragraph style," and press Enter.
4. Change the option from "auto" to "on."
5. Press Alt-F, S, S to save the settings.
Finally, I am a musician. Is anyone working on a set of scripts for
Window-Eyes and Lime music editing software. If not, I might take a
crack at it. I am a retired computer engineer.
I don't know of any active script development for Lime. I'm sure other
blind musicians would be interested in improved access to this
application. The resources at www.gwmicro.com/sc/ are a good starting
point for learning how to write scripts. Also consider joining the
GW-Scripting list as other script developers and GW Micro employees
participate in all kinds of script-related discussions.
