Re: [Blind-Computing] muting jaws
What about if you make jaws to sleep? Snoring too! Smile Here is the instruction from jaws configuration. This dialog is found within Configuration Manager, under the Set Options menu. Sleeping Mode These check boxes are used to turn off JAWS processing within specific applications. This is generally used in applications that provide their own speech or Braille support. We recommend you do not set this option in Default.jcf, as this would stop all processing of JAWS commands. a.. Enable: If checked, this option enables sleep mode, and turns off JAWS processing. This check box is cleared by default. b.. Unload Synthesizer: If checked, the synthesizer is unloaded from memory, freeing it for use by other applications. This check box is cleared by default. This check box is only available if the Enable check box is checked. - Original Message - From: Mike Barbara In Arcadia mb69ma...@charter.net To: blind-computing@jaws-users.com Sent: Sunday, March 13, 2011 7:55 PM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] muting jaws Hi Yvonne; If you have Jaws running you start NVDA, Jaws keystrokes will no longer work. Try the following when you have NVDA Jaws running at the same time. 1. Press Insert + F2, This is, Pass next key through NVDA+f2 Tells NVDA to pass the next key straight through. 2. Now, use the Jaws keystroke of Insert / Jaws key + F4, then press enter to unload / shut down Jaws. Jaws will shut down only NVDA will be running. If you want to use Jaws again, press Insert + Q, to shut down NVDA. Then invoke whatever your shortcut keystroke is for starting Jaws. This is what I do on a XP computer, hopefully it will work the same way with Windows7. Hope this helps. Take care.
