First, make sure you have the factory settings for Chrome installed.
You can see if they're installed and install them if not by opening
the Window-Eyes control panel, Alt+F File, F factory Settings.
Then when you install the app it will tell you that chrome.set is
being replaced. This is needed to make the app work properly.
Here's what the app does.
1. Speaks alert messages, such as download progress and completion.
When a file is downloaded the message from Chrome is to press Shift+F6
to go to the download bar.
2. I added Alt+N because it's quicker and the key combination used in
Internet Explorer to go to the notification bar for the same purpose.
All it's doing is inserting Shift+F6. And it's not tied to the
notification. So if you happen to press it without a file downloaded
it will just put you up in the address bar. F6 will put you back in
the main window.
3. Suggestions entered in the address bar as you type will be spoken.
For example, if you type yo, YouTube.com will probably be voiced.
These are just pulled out of your history. When you hear the right
address just press enter.
Unfortunately because you come in on the address bar when Chrome
opens, and it doubles as a Google search field, you'll hear everything
you type repeated as you type it if there are no suggestions.
Obviously there's no way I can tell what you're typing or if it's in
your history.
Also, the suggestions might not be heard when you first open Chrome.
The reason I replaced the set file is so that I could set keyboard
interrupt to program scope. Then I set it to control and alt only when
you're in the address bar and back to whatever you had it set to when
you're not in the address bar. The problem is I have to monitor for
the chrome.set file to be loaded before grabbing it. And the stars
might not line up in time if you open chrome and start typing
immediately. Although you'll probably hear a little snippet of the
suggestion. Then you can use the read line hot key to see what's there.
And finally, I didn't put error reporting in the app because it uses
the GW-Micro App Central server. So if you have any problems you can
email me at
tom.kings...@charter.net
You can also open the Window-Eyes control panel, Alt+A Apps, App
management, App manager, select the app, press Alt+H to open Help and
Options, then press the About button. There's a Contact author button
in there. And of course you can post any problems here.
Hope this is helpful.
