Re: [JAWS-Users] Reading guitar tabs with Jaws
No kidding. Here I thought it would be a straight forward process. Little did I know...I use YouTube a lot and have found it to be an overall great resource to learn a new song or rifs and other tricks, but the problem with it is that often the quality of the instruction is entirely dependant on the person describing what they are doing. I've found some people who are really good at detailing what their fingers are doing and the chord progression, but it's still too hit and miss. That and if you want to learn the finger picking and other accompaniments and not just the chords, then it's even harder. There's an ultimate guitar app for iOS that some blind folks have talked about, but I guess accessibility was broken with an update. Seems accessible enough to me, but again, Voiceover just reads E---c-B--0 etc. So I don't know what they're doing to be able to decipher what VO is saying. I'm still getting used to the termonology from Spanish to English. C=do, re=D G=Sol and so on so it's that much more awkward too. I did hear of one recourse called Talking Tabs discussed on another mailing list, but their site: www.talking tabs.com gbrings up a service unavailable page so who knows what happened there. I also found something called LunarTabsPro: https://code.google.com/p/lunartabspro/ Looks to be some sort of project to make electric guitar tabs accessible, but they specifically mention that Jaws may or may not work with it and recommend using NVDA. I'm not all keen on diving down the rabbit hole of learning another screen reader just for this. Maybe in the future when I have more time, but that's not necessarily a priority right now. Anyway...I too would be interested in any information or resources that would make guitar tab reading accessible with Jaws. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Mike Boyd Sent: Friday, January 02, 2015 9:07 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Reading guitar tabs with Jaws Hi Cristóbal, I have been playing guitar for over 35 years now, and used tabs quite abit before losing my sight, but since then, I have found nothing to make the reading of it easy. That is not to say that there is nothing available, I just haven't found it from the searching that I have done. I am fully capable of playing by ear and improvising where I need to, so not having the tabs has not hurt me that much. I usually used this to learn tricky parts in songs which were confusing.

I’ve always played by ear or memorization, but figured I’d finally learn tabs. Doing so however seems a bit challenging with Jaws. I’m sure it in part has to do with my lack of familiarity with tabs in general, but with all the E’s, b’s, g’s and dashes and so on, it sounds like Jaws is just reading a bunch of gibberish. Can anyone recommend a better method or tips on how to decipher these hieroglyphics with JFW. My guitar learning was all done in Spanish. So I’m also trying to get used to the notes in English.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Jaws and check boxes.
Hi Judy. Yes, All jaws says is check box. Even when I hit the space bar to either check or uncheck a box, jaws says nothing. So, I don't even know if the box is checked or unchecked.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Reading guitar tabs with Jaws
Hi Cristóbal, I have been playing guitar for over 35 years now, and used tabs quite abit before losing my sight, but since then, I have found nothing to make the reading of it easy. That is not to say that there is nothing available, I just haven't found it from the searching that I have done. I am fully capable of playing by ear and improvising where I need to, so not having the tabs has not hurt me that much. I usually used this to learn tricky parts in songs which were confusing. Tabs are one of the best inovations in the world of stringed instruments to have come along in probably centuries. If you do find a resource, please post it for all to s ee.

I’ve always played by ear or memorization, but figured I’d finally learn tabs. Doing so however seems a bit challenging with Jaws. I’m sure it in part has to do with my lack of familiarity with tabs in general, but with all the E’s, b’s, g’s and dashes and so on, it sounds like Jaws is just reading a bunch of gibberish. Can anyone recommend a better method or tips on how to decipher these hieroglyphics with JFW. My guitar learning was all done in Spanish. So I’m also trying to get used to the notes in English.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Quicken 2015
Hi Well, it's nice to finally hear Intuit and accessibility in the same sentence. I have started playing around with Quicken 2015 using a test Quicken data file. The Quicken scripts that come with JAWS 16 are the same scripts as those from JAWS 2003 with a few modifications by Intuit and will say Quicken 2003 scripts if you press JAWSkey+q. It looks like one function was modified and one function and 1 script were added for JAWS 2015. The function that was added would read the title and contents of the current field. But I didn't see it being called at all. The new script will read the title for each field and the field value for each field in a row. But you have to have your transaction register set up as a one line display. I have read that this script is invoked by pressing control+1, butt this script does not have a key assigned to it in the script itself or the JKM file. If you want to use this script, you can create a Quicken.jkm file in your JAWS user settings folder containing the following two lines. [common keys] Control+Shift+1=SpeakQuickenListRowData I used control+shift+1 because control+1 will bring up the One Step Update dialog in Quicken 2015. I don't know what if any changes have been made by Freedom Scientific to the Quicken scripts since the Quicken 2003 days. If you're using any version of Quicken with JAWS 16, you are using these modified scripts. Because I download some transactions, I have to upgrade Quicken every 3 years and modify the scripts for the parts of Quicken I use. I no longer have Quicken 2003. But the JAWS 16 Quicken scripts seem to act the same using Quicken 2012. In my brief experience of running Quicken 2015 under Windows 7, I have noticed the following while in a transaction register. 1. The new script added by Intuit will read the title for and value of each field in the row where the PC cursor is. His seems to work well in you're in the first line of a transaction, but not if you're in the second line. But your register is supposed to be a one line display, which mine is not. 2. A say line will read the title and value of each field in the row where the PC cursor is placed. Instead of just reading the value of the current field. 3. JAWSkey+c will not say the name and row of the active cursor. 4. When you tab to the different fields in a transaction or arrow up and down to a different transaction, the title and value of the field where you land are not automatically spoken, and since the SayLine will read the entire row, I haven't found a way to just read an individual field. 5. The account list (control+a) can only be used with the JAWS cursor to select or edit an account. 6. If I alt+tab away from Quicken 2015 in Windows 7, I cannot alt+tab back to it. I have to bring up the active window list by pressing JAWSkey+f10 to get back to it. 7. You do have to create an Intuit id to use Quicken 2015. But I'm not sure how different this is from Quicken.com which would upload your quicken data to the cloud if you let it. But I have read that you do have to create an Intuit account for each Quicken data file you use. In Windows 8.1, I have never had much luck trying to get JAWS to read the register screens in either Quicken 2012 or 2015. If you're considering upgrading from Quicken 2003, you'll find some things that have changed. In Quicken 2003, all of the account registers were the same using the same windows structure. But somewhere between Quicken 2004 and 2006, the transaction register for investment accounts, (brokerage, mutual funds, etc.), were changed to transaction lists with a whole new windows structure and much less accessibility. In Quicken 2003, you could export and import transactions to or from a QFX file for any account. With later versions, you cannot import or export transactions to a QFX file for any investment account. Also you can only import transactions from a QFX file to cash accounts. Although this is a start, my conclusion is that Quicken 2015, or any version after 2003, will not be as accessible as Quicken 2003 using JAWS.
