After all this is when people are paying attention. This is my shameless plea begging for a patch from AI Square or GW Micro to address some of the issues WE is having. When one types Window-Eyes in Google the first GW Micro page that comes up has the following line: "Window-Eyes is nothing less than the most stable, secure and customizable screen reader available on the market today." In my experience this is no longer the case. I realise that there are processes and procedures companies must follow when implementing updates or changes. These processes and procedures should be there to support the business; they should not drive the business. Yes Windows ten is around the corner. Not all of us will be jumping on this new OS right away. Until then anything that can reduce the number of issues by at least fifty percent will make using Window-Eyes a more positive experience for those of us who continue to experience loss of speech, WE deciding to stop running etc. Vic ___ Any views or opinions presented in this email are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Ai Squared.

Re: LibreOffice
Window Eyes said it supported Open Office a couple of revisions back. I could never get it to work despite getting help from Doug at GW. I don't think they say it supports Open Office any more but I could be wrong. On 6/25/2015 3:41 PM, via Talk wrote: WindowEyes supports this as well, if you install the java access bridge. David Gerry via Talk wrote: So why doesn't Window-Eyes work with LibreOffice do I have to switch to JFW? It's fine and dandy that they work so closely with Microsoft to make MS-Office accessible but it shouldn't be the only option. This is from LibreOffice's web site http://www.libreoffice.org/accessibility/ Assistive Technology API for Supporting Assistive Technologies Assistive Technology (AT) tools such as screen readers and magnifiers, as well as other tools, connect to LibreOffice using the Java Accessibility API (JAA) via the Java Access Bridge for Windows or GNOME. LibreOffice has a UNO Accessibility API (UAA) in which all elements of the UI and documents expose all the information about themselves and their contents. UAA and JAA have some advantages over the off-screen models of AT tools or the Microsoft Active Accessibility API (MSAA). UAA and JAA provide extended information for the document content, so AT tools do not have to get information via different proprietary application APIs from various applications, or by hooking into the display drivers. An enormous effort has been made to have UI elements and document contents fully support the accessibility interfaces; for example: providing text with attributes and character bounds information, and sending all the necessary notifications and providing names and descriptions of controls. All AT tools which are able to work with Java applications via the Java Access Bridge will also run with LibreOffice. The Java Accessibility API is supported by the most popular AT tools including: JAWS Screen Reader; ZoomText Screen Reader and Magnifier; Gnopernicus Screen Reader and Magnifier; On 6/25/2015 3:38 PM, David Gerry via Talk wrote: Hello, I can't get LibreOffice to run when Window-Eyes is running.
