[Blind-Computing] Ms-Word question help
I am trying to set up an envelopelabels template (alt+e) and I get a message can't undo unavailable and that the Normal template has changed. How do I correct this error. Not sure whether I go under view I had normal checked instead of print lay out. Any help appreciated.

[Blind-Computing] Word and paragraphs
Word 2010 and Jaws 13. When I hit a hard carriage return, it puts an entire line between paragraphs which I don't want, and also Jaws does not show the space when arrowing up and down through the document. Is there a way to fix this? I've not set any paragraph settings or line spacing or anything different than what was out of the box. I really wish Microsoft would not impose these sort of assumptions. Thanks in advance for any help you might have. I need to find a solution ASAP. Brad For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

Re: [Blind-Computing] Word and paragraphs
I'm not 100% that this will help you, but you might want to give it a try: 1. Tap ALT to move to the ribbon. 2. Navigate to the Home tab. 3. Press enter to open the home menu. 4. Press TAB until you get to Line and Paragraph spacing. This is around 30 plus presses of the TAB key. Of course there is a short cut, but I believe in doing it manually first. 5. Press enter to open this menu and arrow down to something that says options. 6. Tab until you get to a check box that talks about space between paragraphs and check or uncheck it as needed. Hopefully this will do the trick.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Word and paragraphs
Hi Brad, I just installed Office 2010 so, this is all new to me. See if the below makes any sense to you. To specify your own line spacing, type the spacing amount that you want in the At box. For example, enter 1.25 for an extra quarter line of space between lines, or click the up or down arrow to increase or decrease the amount in half-line increments. When you finish, click OK. . Press one of the shortcut key combinations: list of 4 items nesting level 1 Ctrl+l - Single-spacing Ctrl+5 - 1.5-line spacing Ctrl+2 - Double-spacing Ctrl+0(zero) - Add or remove 12 points of space before a paragraph. list end nesting level 1 Line Spacing in Word 2010 . Choose Paragraph... from the shortcut menu to open the Paragraph dialog box. On the Indentation and Spacing tab, in the Line Spacing list box, choose one of the options: list of 6 items nesting level 1 Single - Single-line spacing. (Line height automatically adjusts to accommodate the size of the font and any graphics or formulas in a line.) 1.5 Lines - Line-and-one-half spacing (an extra half-line of space between lines). Double - Double-spacing (an extra full line of space between lines). At Least - At least the spacing that you specify in the At box-the line won't be shorter than what you specify, but it may be taller because Word will add extra spacing for tall characters, big graphics, and superscript or subscript text. Exactly - The exact spacing that you specify in the At box. All lines are exactly the same height, regardless of the size of the characters in the line; Word doesn't add extra spacing. Note that some text may be cut off if enough space is not available. Multiple - Multiples of single-line spacing, such as triple (3) or quadruple (4), as specified in the At box.

[Blind-Computing] problems with internet streaming
Usually I use firefox and go to tunein.com to pull up stations I want to listen too. However, after firefox updated something this morning, I can no longer listen to tunein.com or any other internet radio site. I don't know what's going on, and I wish I could figure out how to fix it. I also tried listen to stations with RadioSure and tapinradio, but same results. I tried to fix the problem by uninstalling and reinstalling adobe flash, since I kept getting a message that it had crashed, but after reinstalling it, I still have the same problem. I'm using nvda and windows xp. I've also tried this with google chrome and internet explorer. I would appreciate any suggestions on this problem.

[Blind-Computing] Turning regular keyboard to braille input
Is it possible to define the keys on a regular keyboard to act like Braille input keys? F=dot1 d=dot2 and so on?

Re: [Blind-Computing] Word and paragraphs
Thanks for the help Mike and Annette. I'll give it a go and see what my wife says is the result. I'm fine with it not showing the gap in Jaws, but there are times I might want to just drop a line down without a paragraph gap in Word, maybe this wil settle it. Thanks.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Word and paragraphs
Well you are doing better than I am and I've had 2010 since July :). I am confused though. First I'm not sure what an At box is or how to get to it, secondly isn't CTRL L meant to left justify the text? That has been a standard Word hot key, and Jaws says that is what it is doing. What is more confusing is either that hotkey combo worked, or something else kicked in but it seems to have fixed it. I didn't' ask my wife yet but it use to take a couple delete key entries to roll the text up from the previous paragraph, and now a hard carriage return will pull back up with just one delete key press like before. I'm scratchign my head.
