Hi, Les. The argument for not unchecking the Virtual Ribbon is this:
JAWS put in the "Virtual Ribbon" for those who wanted to manually navigate
the ribbons using the arrows and the Tab key. It is supposed to make the
menus more accessible, but I haven't found this to be true in most
instances.
Brad was saying that people may say to uncheck the Virtual Ribbon without
telling the person the down side of unchecking the Virtual Ribbon. This may
be true. However, some of the techs at FS tell you to check the Virtual
Ribbon, without telling you that this blocks the function of some of the
shortcuts.

Okay, what are the consequences of unchecking the use of ribbons? I
followed Bill's instructions to uncheck it, and the shortcut keys are
easier
to use, but I would like to know the argument for not doing this. If it
matters, I'm running Outlook 2013 with Jaws 16. Thanks.
Les

Yes, but some people may want to stay with the virtual ribbon, which is
the
FS attempt to make ribbon navigation easier for visually impaired users.
Personally, I stayed with the regular ribbon, which is fine once you get
used to it. All I'm saying is that people considering unchecking this
option
need to be aware of the consequences.

To check your settings for the Virtual Ribbon Menu in JAWS:
Press JAWS KEY plus F2. Arrow down to Settings Center and press Enter.
Press the letter M until it says Miscellaneous. Press Right Arrow to Open
Miscellaneous.
Arrow down to Virtual Ribbon Menu. It will probably tell you that this
setting is unavailable except in the default configuration of JAWS.
To load the default configuration: Press Shift plus Control plus the
letter
D as in dog.
Once your default configuration is loaded, you can Press the Up and Down
Arrow to see if your Virtual Ribbon Menu is checked or not. You want it to
be unchecked if you want all of the keyboard shortcuts to work properly.
If
it is checked, press the Space Bar to uncheck it. Then Tab to OK and press
Enter to save these settings.
I hope this helps you.

Where is it that you go to check about the virtual ribbon?

Hi, Les and Barbara. Could this problem with pressing:
ALT plus V, followed by C, followed by V, be related to whether the
Virtual
Ribbon is checked or unchecked in your Default Configuration Menu?
This keyboard shortcut may work only if the Virtual Ribbon option under
Miscellaneous is unchecked.

Hi,
I'm having the same problem Barbara is having. I press Alt-V followed
by C and V and hear nothing. Tabbing yields a blank area which Jaws
speaks.

Hello Barbra,
I am using Windows 7, 64 bit, Jaws 16.0. 4350, and Outlook 2013, and
pressing alt V, C, V, while in the inbox of Outlook brings up "Current
view group box", with a list of options, Cheers Kevin.

Subject: changing the "view" in outlook 2010
Hi List friends,
Regarding the info on losing messages in outlook, and the suggestion
to change the view menu, I need to know how to do this. The
suggestion, alt-V, c, v, did not work for me. When I bring up the
ribbons menu and enter on the "view" menu, nothing happens. It just
says "blank". I also tried arrowing and tabbing and still says
"blank".
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Barbara
