Hello Ted, Window-Eyes does has a lot of documentation to read. Also if you want to use Window-Eyes in a jaws layout mode, press alt-control-0. This will toggle on and off something called insert layout. Then, whatever hotkeys for jaws that you were used to, should work for Window-Eyes. Not every jaws keystrokes is used in this mode, though. -----Original Message----- From: Ted Phillips [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, January 20, 2014 10:37 PM To: 'Craig Werner'; 'GW Micro (List)' Subject: RE: a window eyes newby
I will be there. -----Original Message----- From: Craig Werner [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: January 20, 2014 11:16 PM To: GW Micro (List) Subject: Re: a window eyes newby Hello, Ted. Good to have you on board. You have come to the right place for help. All questions are answered here ranging from the simple to the complex. Users run the gamut from just starting out to seasoned veterans. I learned Window-Eyes by reading the manual and trying every command I thought might help me. The manual is not written in an intimidating way. It uses straightforward language, and its syntax and organization make it quite pleasant to peruse. Granted, I'm a "read the manual" kind of user, and having read many a user guide, I can tell you that the Window-Eyes manual is friendlier than most and helpful to boot. I hope you can make the online training on Wednesday. If you can't, it will be archived on the GW Micro website. Craig On 1/20/2014 11:18 PM, Ted Phillips wrote: > Hi all.
