[JAWS-Users] JAWS 16 update coming next week, see the list of fixes here
All, We are on target for our first update to JAWS 16 next week. There have been a significant number of changes that made it into this first update and I wanted to get the list out to you all now, in order to give you a all a sneak preview of what is coming. Have a great weekend. Regards, Eric Damery Enhancements in JAWS 16.0.1722 (December 2014) JAWS * You can now select text using a braille display in various edit and document windows without the text being selected having to remain visible on the screen. For example, if you are using a Focus display, press the LEFT SHIFT along with a cursor router at the location where you want the selection to begin, navigate through the document or Web page, and then press the LEFT SHIFT along with a cursor router again at the location where you want to end the selection. All text between these two locations is selected regardless whether all the text is visible on the screen or not. * Added support for Quicken 2015 using new scripts provided by Intuit. * This update contains new drivers from Papenmeier which support their new Braillex Live series of braille displays. * Pressing the LEFT SHIFT or RIGHT SHIFT button on a Focus braille display now silences speech similar to pressing CTRL on a QWERTY keyboard. * Updated the Bookshare Book Search Research It lookup source to work with the latest changes to the Bookshare.org Web site. * Addressed a customer reported issue with the Time Search Research It lookup source not displaying the current time for the specified location. * If JAWS contracted braille translation is set to both input and output, the Computer Braille start symbol, dots 4-5-6 followed by dots 3-4--6, is now shown on the braille display in addition to the computer braille message being announced to indicate when only Computer Braille can be entered into an edit field. * When using a braille display with JAWS in Structured Mode, resolved an issue where it was sometimes necessary to pan left to read the information associated with a control, such as the name of a button or contents of an edit field, even if it all fit on the display. * Resolved multiple issues with configuring punctuation levels for individual languages in a voice profile using the Voice Adjustment dialog box as well as changing the punctuation level through Settings Center. * In response to customer feedback, improved JAWS performance with MathML expressions containing multiple tables. * Resolved an issue where the wrong colors were being reported when pressing INSERT+5 in WordPad. * Pressing INSERT+T in WordPad in Windows 8.1 now speaks the window title as expected. * Addressed a customer reported issue with the Theophilos Bible program where JAWS was not automatically reading the selected item when navigating the combo box to choose a book. * When using CTRL+WINDOWS Key+ALT+PAGE UP or CTRL+WINDOWS Key+ALT+PAGE DOWN to permanently increase or decrease the speech rate, addressed an issue where JAWS was not saying faster or slower. * A customer reported that when reading certain abbreviated words containing periods, such as Mr. and Mrs., JAWS was incorrectly speaking the period. This has been resolved. * On the Windows 8 Logon screen, resolved an issue where password was being announced three times when the Password field gained focus. * Addressed a customer reported issue where JAWS would not read as expected in the calendar that can be accessed from the System Tray by pressing SPACEBAR on the clock. * When installing an application that uses a Nullsoft Install System installer, an issue was resolved where JAWS would not announce the checked or unchecked state of items when asked to choose the components to install. This occurred on 64-bit versions of Windows. * In Windows 8.1, an issue was addressed where JAWS would not always speak the correct window title in Windows Explorer while navigating with TAB and SHIFT+TAB. * When pressing INSERT+DOWN ARROW to begin a Say All, resolved an issue where there was sometimes and extra-long pause before JAWS began reading. This was primarily observed in applications like NotePad, WordPad, and HJPad. * When using Settings Center to configure the punctuation level for Vocalizer Expressive and SAPI 5 voices for languages other than English, resolved an issue where the current voice rate and volume were not retained. * Addressed a reported issue with the German release of JAWS where Alva braille displays were not being listed in the Synthesizer and Braille Manager. * In the Voice Adjustment dialog box, when navigating in the Synthesizer Language combo box with Eloquence as the selected profile, resolved a reported issue where German was not being pronounced correctly.

Thanks, Eric. I don't see the issue of HTML code instead of English appearing in some frames on some internet sites, namely the Washington Post. Tech support says they are working on the issue.

Hi Jim, Yes, it was corrected. I think he referred to the fix in the FireFox section but it was much more of a Virtual Buffer reading issue so it showed up in IE, Chrome, and even some email messages. But yes, this nasty little bug was squashed.

I especially like the deal where Quicken support is being updated. Will 2015 be as accessible as say 2003 or 98?

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 16 update coming next week, see the list of fixes here
That is a good question for Intuit I think. They updated the scripts. I know they are working on fixing newer versions so less scripting is required. It will take time, but at least they are headed in the right direction.
