Greetings,
Window-Eyes 7.0 Beta 1 includes four script packages, automatically
installed for your convenience, that demonstrate the power Window-Eyes
scripting provides to enhance your daily computing experience. The
information for each script below is also found in the script's help and
options. You can access a script's help and options by opening the
Script Manager dialog (from the Manage Sets and Scripts pull down in the
Window-Eyes File menu), selecting the script you're interested in, then
selecting the Help and Options button (or pressing the Help and Options
button shortcut, H).
GW Toolkit
The GW Toolkit script provides a collection of commonly used shared
objects for use with other scripts, such as providing consistent help
information, managing hotkeys, and much more. The rest of the scripts
listed below require the GW Toolkit script's functionality. You can read
more about the objects contained in the GW Toolkit by reading through
the gwtoolkit.chm Help file, installed automatically to your user
profile directory.
AutoComplete
AutoComplete provides announcement of inline autocompleted text and
suggestion list items in supported combo edit boxes, such as those in
the Start Menu's Run dialog, standard file save and open dialogs, and
many other areas.
To disable the speaking of inline autocompleted text, select the "Do Not
Speak" radio button. To speak only the text that autocompleted, select
the "Speak Completed Text" radio button. To speak the entire line (i.e.
what has been typed plus the text that autocompleted), select the "Speak
Entire Line" radio button.
To hear an index of the number of suggestions provided in the suggestion
popup list, check the "Speak Suggestion Index" check box. To hear the
first item in the suggestion list spoken, check the "Speak First
Suggestion" check box."
If toggling the "Enable Inline Autocomplete" check box does not work,
you can always verify this setting manually by toggling the "Use inline
AutoComplete" check box under the Advanced tab of the Internet Options
control panel.
Note that the suggestion popup list does not have anything selected by
default. To select the first item (the same item spoken if the "Speak
First Suggestion" option is enabled), press the Down Arrow.
LVNav
The lvnav script is designed to allow you to virtually navigate a
listview. You can use the insert arrows to virtually move through the
rows and columns in the listview. Insert-Home and Insert-End move to the
beginning and end of a row while Control-Insert-Home and
Control-Insert-End move to the top and bottom of a column. You can also
use Alt-1 through Alt-0 to read columns 1 through 10. If you want to
set focus to the virtual item you are on use Insert-Enter. If you want
to set focus to the virtual item and add it to the current selection use
Control-Insert-Enter. This script can be loaded globally to be
available for all listviews or in a specific application to only be
available for listviews within that application.
Progress Indicator
This script is designed to get you immediate feedback on the status of
progress bars in the active window. There are two types of progress
bars. The main progress bar contains a visual indicator as to the
progress giving sighted users a percentage from 0 to 100. Marquee bars
are similar but they don’t give a percentage. Instead they just give a
sighted user an indication that progress is being made. This script
gives you the ability to monitor both types independently.
Virtual View
Virtual View displays a text view of any window. To include graphic
labels, check the Include Labeled Graphics option. To include the window
type where the text came from, check the Include Window Types check box.
To prompt for the window to retrieve the text from, check the Always Ask
for Window Type check box. Virtual View also offers several quick keys
for accessing the dialog where the text originated. For example, if a
button called Close exists in the dialog where you obtained the virtual
view from, you can place your cursor on the word close, and press the
letter L to close the Virtual View dialog, and click the close button --
all in one key stroke. In addition to L for Single Left Click, other
commands are: R for Single Right Click, D for Double Left Click, M for
Middle Click, P for Route Mouse, and F for Focus Control. You can also
use Control-F to search for text in the Virtual View edit box, as well
as F3 to find the next occurrence of the last string searched for.
