Re: [JAWS-Users] laptop questions
My most recent personal laptop is an ASUS. If you are comfortable with using the JAWS laptop layout, I really enjoy this machine. It isn't a touch device but has a great feel on your lap and the weight of the device is so incredible to feel that such a powerful device is so not heavy. Most importantly for me, typing on the keyboard feels solid. To be clear this machine isn't for everyone. It has a smaller screen but my goals were powerful performance in the smallest machine I could find. I bought it from Amazon originally. The model I purchased doesn't seem to be available from Amazon but maybe there is a newer model. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LHUAFAQ/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF 8&psc=1 -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Greg Washington Sent: Wednesday, June 14, 2017 5:50 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] laptop questions Iagree about Dell laptop computers being a good pick.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JFW and Windows Surface Pro
Hello, I have a surface Pro and run JAWS on it just fine. I use the Touch Cover keyboard. Be aware that this keyboard does not have dedicated function keys. You have to hold down the FN key to get the function key actions. The FN key is the second key to the right of the space bar. The Touch keyboard has some keys for common Win8 functions also. You can find a list of the function assignments in this list. http://www.microsoft.com/Surface/en-US/support/hardware-and-drivers/touch-co ver-typing For example, the key in the location of F1 by itself is mute. With the FN key it is F1.

Re: [JAWS-Users] USING JAWS WITH IE 8 ACCELERATORS
Brian, You shouldn't have to open new tabs to do all of this. One of the points of accelerators is to let you select text on a page, select the accelerator and take action. So for example using JAWS in your translate example, I select some text from the VPC mode, press the application key, select all accelerators and then the translate item. A new tab opens automatically navigated to the translationn service and sends your selected text. Note for this to work right with JAWS, you need the option for text selection in the virtual PC mode to be set to select using onscreen highlight. Kelly -Original Message- From: Brian Lee [mailto:brianl...@charter.net] Sent: Sunday, March 29, 2009 5:00 PM To: JAWSUsers Subject: [JAWS-Users] USING JAWS WITH IE 8 ACCELERATORS One of the nice additions to IE 8 is the use of accelerators. However, I have not been able to find the accelerator button. Default accelerators are available when using the application key, and the accelerators can easily be used in new tabs, but there apparently is an accelerator button that can be used. If anyone knows how to find it, please let me know. I added an accelerator and made it default, but it doesn't show in the list of all accelerators when using the application key. Here is a brief synopsis of how I am currently using accelerators: There are two accelerators that I use quite often. One of them is a translation tool and the other one is a "shop and save" accelerator from Live Search. I will use the latter as an example. 1. Select words on a web page. This can be text on any web page or text that a person types in an edit box. 2. While text is selected open a new tab using CTRL+T. 3. If focus stays on the address bar in the new tab, (which has happened to me) then use F6 until focus is moved into the content of the new tab. You should hear that the page has so many links, and you might hear something like "what to you want to do next." 4. You can then use JAWS key with F7 to list links. If you want to translate the text then use T in the list of links until you hear something like "translate using Live Search. There are a couple links before the one you want that have to do with the translator. I have added the "shop and save" add-on so I press the letter "F" to get to the "find products shop and save" link and press enter. A person can also easily use down arrow to the link without using the links list and press enter on the link. The resultant page shows the results. I typed "external hard drive" in the Google edit box, selected it and then opened a new tab and used the "find products" accelerator. The resultant page showed me a list of external hard drives from various manufacturers, their description, a range of pricing, user reviews, etc. I have also used the translator accelerator by selecting the text on a web page, opening a new tab and then picking the "translate with Live Search" choice. The default settings for translating from a particular language to another one are used. The language used for translating to was not the one I wanted, and I had some trouble getting the browser to remember my settings. I was able to use the combo box on the translator's page to pick the language from and to that I wanted but the next time I translated something the settings reverted to default settings. After I cleared cookies and chose the languages I wanted to use again, my settings were retained in subsequent text translations. Apparently, default settings can be changed through "options" on the translator.live.com page but I didn't find where to change language settings for translation purposes. If anyone wants to add accelerators you can do it through the "manage add-ons" dialog. The choice is in the tools menu. In the dialog box use down arrow in the group of radio buttons where you pick the type of add-on until you get to accelerators. Use the tab key to the button for finding more accelerators and press enter key. A web page will be loaded that lets you choose accelerators and add them to your browser. Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] New "undocumented" feature in JAWS
MSAA stands for Microsoft Active Accessibility. It is a way for software to describe the objects that are being used to create the program such as lists, trees and such. When a developer uses what are known as standard controls, the MSAA info is generally provided automatically. However when a developer builds an application out of custom controls, then it is typically necessary to support some form of method for programs like screen readers to get at information. Supporting MSAA for example is how Flash and iTunes make themselves accessible. This is a new feature in JAWS 10. By and large you shouldn't need to go changing this setting. But if you know that an application that isn't speaking so well is supposed to have MSAA support, this is a setting you can adjust.

If I have problems with info bar, I make that: 1. Roote Jaws cursor to PC cursor. 2. Activate Jaws cursor. 3. With the down, and up key, go with Jaws cursor by the line: For Internet Explorer needed that and that, hit ctrl+right, if you hear the first word of it. 4. Then click with a left mouse key, wich is the click key, of the Jaws cursor, and enable the sites, or what else you want. God bless!

Re: [JAWS-Users] how accessible is office 2007?
Office 2007 will work with documents created in Office 2003. They open in what's known as compatibility mode. The biggest learning curve in Office 2007 from my experience is what's known as the ribbon. There are many different online resources that talk about this but one thing I find particularly handy are some references from the office team that tell you where all the commands you are used to can now be found. I linked to these in a blog post a while ago at http://blog.kellyford.org/archives/2007/01/finding_the_ele.html.
