Re: [AI] My first two weeks with Samsung S3
In android 2.3 with eyes free shell and eyes free keyboard and talk back, can one enable double touch feature? I mean one light touch should tell what the button is, and second touch activate it. If not, what else is the way of accessibly handling such a device? -Original Message- From: AccessIndia [mailto:accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in] On Behalf Of Syed Imran Sent: Wednesday, October 03, 2012 8:13 PM To: accessindia@accessindia.org.in Subject: Re: [AI] My first two weeks with Samsung S3 It's hard to express with full accuracy how things will turn out in future from accessibility perspective for the blind. As things stand currently, I'd give the highest rating to Apple when it comes to maintaining accessibility standards, then Nuance Talks and mobile speak, after that comes android and next comes blackberry screen reader. -Original Message- From: AccessIndia [mailto:accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in] On Behalf Of Srikanth Kanuri Sent: 03 October 2012 12:26 To: accessindia@accessindia.org.in Subject: Re: [AI] My first two weeks with Samsung S3 hi all, i tried accessibility on my friends nexus 7 with latest android version. there are good accessibility improvements but still it lags. there are gestures for starting talk back directly but had no luck while trying them. there is no provision to read from current position in mail or web which is really a set back correct me if am wrong on this issue. though the home screens are accessible, i find many google's stock apps to be inaccessible. on entirety it is promisingly improving interface but as of now i stick to IPhone excellent accessibility. i could find few excellent apps which makes my choice promising.

Re: [AI] Thoughts On Flexable Web In Jaws 14 Beta 2
Extremely pleased of this! now we can get rid of clutters in the webpages. due to this we can save our time too! and learners/beginners can get oriented without losing their patience. Thanks for sharing! - Original Message - From: "inamuddin" To: Sent: Thursday, October 04, 2012 8:51 AM Subject: [AI] Thoughts On Flexable Web In Jaws 14 Beta 2 Dear friends, as you are well aware that freedomscientific is about to release jaws 14 beta 2 with in the metter of 1 or 2 days. Before that release, I have decided to share with you some thoughts about jaws 14 Beta 2, so you can use it in a better envirnament. I sincierely hope that after reading this artical you will be able to use that jaws more effeciently. In Episode 70 of its monthly FSCast, Freedom Scientific announced the upcoming JAWS 14 feature "Flexible Web". I happen to think this is a real breakthrough in making the web user experience more intuitive for people. Please note that all the information I am about to discuss is already in the public domain through FSCast. Flexible Web will allow a JAWS user to: list of 2 items . Hide content on a web page which may interrupt the reading experience. Many sites now contain Google Ad Frames or Links to social networking tools such as Facebook and Twitter, allowing people to share a page with these sites. If placed in the middle of an article or news story for example, these Links and Frames can interrupt the flow of something interesting being read. . Start reading at, (or set focus to), a designated point on a web page. Two basic examples would be as follows. When you carry out a Google search, instruct JAWS to start reading where the search results appear, bypassing the other content at the head of the page. Alternatively, when activating a Link to read more about a book on Audible.com, set JAWS to go straight to the summary so as to decide whether you would like to purchase it. Focus can also be set to other elements, such as Edit Fields, ARIA regions and Links. list end These two features are governed by an intuitive Wizard which steps you through the process with helpful information along the way. You can create a "temporary customisation" initially, and if you decide you want to apply it you can create a permanent rule. The rules can contain a combination of "behaviours", such as to ignore content and start reading at a designated location. Options in the Wizard allow you to rename, edit and delete rules. Rules can be applied to all sites or to an individual one. I really would advise you to listen to the FSCast on this subject. Jonathan Mosen does a first-class job of demonstrating all the options within Flexible Web. One thing I learned from the podcast was that if you choose to hide content using Flexible Web, this also applies to MAGic if you have it running alongside JAWS. So as people are working their way through web pages, the visual focus tracks alongside JAWS. That is very cool indeed. Not only do I think this will improve the browsing experience for people tremendously, but it will also add useful functionality for those using browser-based applications in the workplace. Together with Placemarkers and Custom Labels, Flexible Web will undoubtedly ensure people have the tools to become more efficient within the course of their work duties. JAWS does stand for "Job Access With Speech" after all! When JAWS is officially released containing Flexible Web, there will be a number of ways you can get help to use it. You can use the Context Sensitive Help already built into the Flexible Web wizard to give you useful guidance on how to use it. You can take advantage of a webinar to be hosted by the Freedom Scientific Training department on 24 October. will remotely train anyone anywhere in the world on any aspect of using JAWS for 40 pounds per hour. This training is reinforced by the provision of documentation to support it. Note that this does not mean we will attend site but it is remote training using JAWS Tandem or similar software. For more information, please write to inamuddi...@gmail.com In summary, the introduction of Flexible Web just demonstrates why JAWS is a fantastic screen-reader. Using Flexible Web, Placemarkers and Custom Labels, Freedom Scientific really do give blind people excellent control of web pages, allowing people to find and read what they want very quickly. I wish them the very best of luck with this new feature. Friendship florishes at the fountain of forgiveness.

It's hard to express with full accuracy how things will turn out in future from accessibility perspective for the blind.

Re: [AI] Type dash in excel cell
dear mukesh, as I checked with excel XP, it worked. one thing you have to ensure. after typing dash, press enter and do not use arrow keys to go to another cell. otherwise, excel tries to insert a formula. if you type 2 or more dashes, after pressing enter key, you may get an error message box. ignore it and hit another enter. I hope the same holds with later versions of excel also.

Re: [AI] My first two weeks with Samsung S3
There are free apps like Silver magnifier, your magnifier in the play store. They use the phone camera to magnify the object placed under the camera. These apps also have the option of using the flash light as a reading light. It can be used to read any printed matter. -Original Message- From: AccessIndia [mailto:accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in] On Behalf Of Salman Raafay Sent: 03 October 2012 11:38 To: accessindia@accessindia.org.in Subject: Re: [AI] My first two weeks with Samsung S3 Hi Prashant, you mentioned about digital magnifying capacity of this phone, my query is that can it magnify the text of a book kept under this phone like hand held magnifyer?

Re: [AI] My first two weeks with Samsung S3
To make it short, android and IPhone both are like ruling party and opposition party as per the present trend. As far as I've heard, as per the android, we have to do some modifications and install substitute applications to make it partly accessible. But as per the IPhone, it is hundred per cent accessible out of the box. for further informations, grab podcasts from http://www.blindcooltech.com - Original Message - From: "Ketan Kothari" To: Sent: Wednesday, October 03, 2012 10:54 AM Subject: Re: [AI] My first two weeks with Samsung S3 Dear Friends, I am now planning to buy a new phone (although my E72 is in good health).

Re: [AI] My first two weeks with Samsung S3
Hi Radha, the app was available in my friend's Samsung Note. This must be available in PlayStore I asume, Haven't checked myself though. Hi Prashant, I found the Accessability Options in Settings menue of the Funbook. So far, I had used the Tab for brousing Internet mostly. there are few inbuilt options there. I had to take sited person's help in activating those. Another irritating thing I found in Funbook is that, You cannot use the devise seemlessly, as it keeps you asking username and password in lot of apps all the time. I am feeling, using Android mobile is better accessabilitywize than the Android Tab, I don't know why.
