hi,
The big plus when you choose QWS over many other solutions is you don't have to use scripts at all to work with it.
Another solution could also be to make access keys in the program it itself.
But I find pressing for example alt 1 for note alt 2 for duration and so on just as anoying as pressing enter on the field listening to the value and escaping out.
So yes in short: It's a usable dirty work around.

Best regards
Brian

Emne: Re: QWS List qws acessiblity forblind users


Howdy,
The only other quick work around that I can see is for jaws users to creat frames for the status bar around each individual area for each individual identifying characteristic and assign a keystroke to each frame position. Dirty, but it seems workable.
Cheers,
Hayden

Hi,

The only thing I can add to this discussion is that when you use insert page down or better jawskey page down then the intire line is read out lout. It can some times be a bit chalenging to remember all the information presented on such a status line especially if there are many different figures.

Yes, I can see that (ha ha). What I tend to do is if I want a particular piece of info and if I can't catch it by reading the whole status bar is to press the initial letter of the field (as if you were going to edit) and then press ENTER to call up the normal edit dialog, then press ESCAPE once you've heard what you want. Just don't press ESCAPE twice as it will take you out of the editor.

How's that for a dirty work-around?

Of course, those with some scripting knowhow could write dozens of JAWS macros to read each individual field, that would be possible as well.

Hope this helps.

James.
