I Didn't know about the #1 through 7 options, thanks, that cold be useful for my web application. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Mike B. Sent: 11 September 2017 19:48 To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Place markers Hi LeDon, Here's to add to what Justin has posted: PlaceMarkers A PlaceMarker is a bookmark that you can easily add to a Web page, HTML, PDF, or Word document, or form to mark a location. This is useful when you want to return to commonly used areas on a Web page, important sections or paragraphs of an HTML document, or specific parts, such as required fields, of a complicated form. PlaceMarkers can be defined as temporary or permanent and can be anchored to text, elements of the current Web page, or to a Web site's domain. Multiple PlaceMarkers can be added to HTML or PDF documents, while only one can be added to a Word document. The following describes how to add, rename, or delete PlaceMarkers. If you are not familiar with PlaceMarkers and need more information, refer to Important PlaceMarker Concepts. For additional PlaceMarker operation, refer to Advanced PlaceMarker Usage. For general information about using PlaceMarkers in a Word document, refer to Marking and Returning to a PlaceMarker in Word. Adding a Temporary PlaceMarker To quickly add a temporary PlaceMarker, do the following: 1.. Open a Web page, other HTML document, or Word document. 2.. Move the virtual cursor to the location on the page where you want to put the PlaceMarker. 3.. Press CTRL+WINDOWS Key+K. A temporary PlaceMarker now appears on the page. You can always jump to it using any of the following Navigation Quick Keys: K, SHIFT+K, SHIFT+ number row keys 7 through 0, or CTRL+SHIFT+K. (The last keystroke opens the PlaceMarker List. Select Temporary from the list, and then choose the Move To button.) Selecting Between the Temporary PlaceMarker and the Cursor Position To select text between a temporary PlaceMarker and your current position in a Web page, HTML document, or Word document, do the following: 1.. Press CTRL+WINDOWS Key+k to set a temporary PlaceMarker. 2.. Navigate to another location on the Web page or document, then press INSERT+SPACEBAR, M. All text between the temporary PlaceMarker and your current cursor position is selected and ready to be copied to the Clipboard. This method is often easier than using the SHIFT Key in conjunction with the ARROW keys when attempting to select large blocks of text. Adding Permanent PlaceMarkers to Web Pages or HTML Documents To add a PlaceMarker, do the following: 1.. Open a Web page or other HTML document. 2.. Move the virtual cursor to the location on the page where you want to put the PlaceMarker. 3.. Press CTRL+SHIFT+K and then ENTER. The Add PlaceMarker dialog box opens with focus in the Name edit field. It contains text that appears at the cursor location. If you want to change the PlaceMarker name, type a new name in this field; otherwise, press TAB to move to the next control. 4.. The Define for All Pages on Current Domain check box is cleared by default, which allows the PlaceMarker to be anchored only to the current Web page or HTML document. If you want to use this PlaceMarker so that it is anchored to all pages within the current domain instead, press SPACEBAR to select the check box. Press TAB to move to the next control. 5.. The Anchor to Text check box is cleared by default. Select this check box if you want to link the PlaceMarker with specific text, such as a heading, that appears on the page. This can be useful on frequently updated Web pages where text and elements tend to drift from their original position. When selected, the next control, Anchor Text edit field, automatically populates using the original text in the Name edit field. This guarantees that the PlaceMarker will always be associated with this text on the Web page. 6.. Press TAB to navigate to the OK button and press SPACEBAR to close the dialog box and save the PlaceMarker. Renaming PlaceMarkers To change the name of a PlaceMarker, do the following: 1.. Open the page containing the PlaceMarker you want to rename. 2.. Press CTRL+SHIFT+K to display a list of PlaceMarkers on this page. 3.. Use the UP ARROW or DOWN ARROW keys to select the PlaceMarker. 4.. Press SPACEBAR on the Change Name button or press ALT+C. 5.. Enter a new name for the PlaceMarker and then press SPACEBAR on the OK button. Removing PlaceMarkers To remove one or more PlaceMarkers, do the following: 1.. Open the page containing the PlaceMarker you want to delete. 2.. Press CTRL+SHIFT+K to display a list of all PlaceMarkers on the current page. 3.. Use the UP ARROW or DOWN ARROW keys to select a PlaceMarker. 4.. Press SPACEBAR on the Remove button or press ALT+R to delete the PlaceMarker. Tip: If you want to delete all

its associated text. This lets you quickly review the text located near your PlaceMarkers so you can hear any changes or updates to those areas of the page. To enable or disable this feature, do the following: 1.. Open Settings Center (INSERT+F2) or Quick Settings (INSERT+V). 2.. In the Search edit box, type "PlaceMarker" without the quotes. 3.. Press DOWN ARROW to move to Custom PlaceMarker Page Summary in the filtered results of the tree view. (Note that for Web browsers, this option appears in both the Virtual Cursor Options group and the Personalized Web Settings group.) 4.. Press SPACEBAR to toggle through the following settings. a.. Select "Speak PlaceMarkers on Page Load" to have JAWS read the name of each PlaceMarker on the current page as well as the text that appears near the PlaceMarker's location. b.. Select "List PlaceMarkers in Results Viewer on Page Load" to have JAWS display the PlaceMarker information for the page in the Results Viewer. The Results Viewer provides a link with the name of the PlaceMarker and the text that appears near the PlaceMarker's location on the page. You can use the ARROW keys to move to a link and then press ENTER to move to that PlaceMarker. c.. Select "Do Nothing" to have JAWS provide a custom page summary.

Thanks for the steps -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Brian Lee Sent: Thursday, July 03, 2014 12:59 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Place Markers in MS Word Hello Wayne, The following applies to JAWS 15. I hope it is the same for JAWS 14. When you move focus to the end of the text you want to mark you use insert key with spacebar followed by M not Alt with spacebar. Alt with spacebar brings up the control menu with choices such as maximize, minimize and move. Pressing the M after using Alt with spacebar activates the move option if it is available in that menu. In a Word document you can enter a place marker using CTRL Windows key and K. You can move back to it by using Alt Windows key K. After you mark the beginning place in the document you navigate to where you want to mark the end of the block of information and use JAWS key with spacebar followed by M. This selects text between the place marker and the mark at the end of the block of text. Take care.

[JAWS-Users] Place Markers revisited and more
Hello- I have not heard from anyone about deleting place markers in a Word doc as of yet. I am hoping that there are some marker users out there. I have encountered a new issue. I was able to restore the MS Word 2007 doc to its original content but now when I arrow through the text in the area that I had selected I hear; Heading Level 1 and it appears throughout the document after each blank line. Still hoping for an assist. Wayne For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

Re: [JAWS-Users] Place markers
Hi Steve Shannon, This is totally a guess on my behalf but, you can try going into your, Personalized Settings, folder that is located in the J15 ENU folder copying the item you want to transfer to a flashdrive or, emailing it to yourself, pasting it in the same place on the other computer. Like I said, I'm guessing haven't tried it! Let us know how it goes. Take care.

Thanks to everyone who responded to my post. I am now able to set, remove and locate placemarkers. Pete For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
[JAWS-Users] PLACE MARKERS
The following information was located in the Jaws 11 Help file by using the Key Word Indexing function. Below, you will find the basics. But there is much more to be founbd by using the Jaws Help feature in your own system. PlaceMarkers A PlaceMarker is a bookmark that you can easily add to a Web page, HTML document, or form to mark a location. This is useful when you want to return to commonly used areas on a Web page, important sections or paragraphs of an HTML document, or specific parts, such as required fields, of a complicated form. PlaceMarkers can be defined as temporary or permanent and can be anchored to text or elements of the current Web page or to its domain. The following describes how to add, rename, or delete PlaceMarkers. If you are not familiar with PlaceMarkers and need more information, refer to Important mk:@MSITStore:C:\Program%20Files\Freedom%20Scientific\JAWS\11.0\Help\enu\po papps.chm::/internet/internet_explorer_5/placemarkers.htm#Concepts PlaceMarker Concepts. For additional PlaceMarker operation, refer to Advanced mk:@MSITStore:C:\Program%20Files\Freedom%20Scientific\JAWS\11.0\Help\enu\po papps.chm::/internet/internet_explorer_5/placemarkers.htm#Advanced PlaceMarker Usage. Adding a Temporary PlaceMarker To quickly add a temporary PlaceMarker, do the following: 1. Open a web page or other HTML document. 2. Move the virtual cursor to the location on the page where you want to put the PlaceMarker. 3. Press CTRL+WINDOWS Key+K. A temporary PlaceMarker now appears on the page. You can always jump to it using any of the following Navigation mk:@MSITStore:C:\Program%20Files\Freedom%20Scientific\JAWS\11.0\Help\enu\po papps.chm::/internet/internet_explorer_5/qk_nav_ie.htm Quick Keys: K, SHIFT+K, SHIFT+ number row keys 7 through 0, or CTRL+SHIFT+K. (The last keystroke opens the PlaceMarker List. Select Temporary from the list, and then choose the Move To button.) Adding Permanent PlaceMarkers To add a PlaceMarker, do the following: 1. Open a web page or other HTML document. 2. Move the virtual cursor to the location on the page where you want to put the PlaceMarker. 3. Press CTRL+SHIFT+K and then ENTER. The Add PlaceMarker dialog box opens with focus in the Name edit field. It contains text that appears at the cursor location. If you want to change the PlaceMarker name, type a new name in this field; otherwise, press TAB to move to the next control. 4. The Define for All Pages on Current Domain check box is cleared by default, which allows the PlaceMarker to be anchored only to the current Web page or HTML document. If you want to use this PlaceMarker so that it is anchored to all pages within the current domain instead, press SPACEBAR to select the check box. Press TAB to move to the next control. 5. The Anchor to Text check box is cleared by default. Select this check box if you want to link the PlaceMarker with specific text, such as a heading, that appears on the page. This can be useful on frequently updated Web pages where text and elements tend to drift from their original position. When selected, the next control, Anchor Text edit field, automatically populates using the original text in the Name edit field. This guarantees that the PlaceMarker will always be associated with this text on the Web page. 6. Press TAB to navigate to the OK button and press SPACEBAR to close the dialog box and save the PlaceMarker.

[JAWS-Users] Place markers
Hey Gang, In Jaws 8 if you have more then 1 place markers all you have to do is ctrl shift 1 through 9 to get to it. On my banking page I have about 6 place markers. My question is in Jaws 9 this command ctrl shift # doesn't work, is there a way to get that command back, because I like it? I know all you have to do is press k. That is the reason I haven't went to Jaws 9 yet. I got my Jaws 10 in the mail last week. Thanks for all the help. Patti When I look back it reminds me to thank Him. When I look ahead it reminds me to trust Him. When I look around it reminds me to serve Him.

Ok Gang, On my computer running Jaws 9, windows XP home, and IE 7. I put a lot of place markers on a webpage, but when I press ctrl shift 1 or any number, all it says is ctrl shift 3 or whatever number I press. In Jaws 8 I can go to the place marker I want, so now what do I do for Jaws 9? Patti Where the will of God leads you, the grace of God will keep you.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Place markers
Hi Patti, I have noticed that this happens a great deal when you have placed the placemarker on the web page, then, when you come back to that page, instead of going to the placemarker, it simply repeats the keystroke you just pressed. I have found that this happens because the window has lost focus. Before pressing the keystroke, make sure that you are on the page in question, and make sure it has focus.
