Re: [JAWS-Users] Superscript in Word 2016
It is nice JAWS to offer many so different built-in schemes and, in case none of them suit our needs, the capability of configuring each aspect of a scheme. For dayly use, I'm right with the Classic scheme with only one (technically six) modification: instead of hearing heading level numbers, I configured the Classic scheme to play a different piano note depending on the specific heading level, therefore navigating by headings or reading documents with many titles is faster. Since I rarely need JAWS to report each attribute or font change in a text (usually INSERT+F for specific parts is enough), I'm not confident with Proofreading-like schemes that indicate changes simply by reading the affected with another voice or pitch. For these cases, I prefer built-in variants of the Classic Scheme instead. Regarding Word changing automatically superscripts, subscripts and many other things, I find useful to have the Provide Feedback with Sound option checked. On this topic, it plays a Liquid Paper sound when Word changes something automatically, and a thighter one when you place your caret over a text which was modified automatically, although in this case by default JAWS say “Smart tag: Undo automatic actions,” which indicate you can press ALT+SHIFT+F10 to open a context menu related to the correction made. Hope it helps! 2018-05-21 15:13 GMT-03:00 Rebecca Lineberger: > Yes, smile, but the brain, my brain, seems to remember "p" for > proofreading, more easily than "c" for classic attributes and font info. > Whatever works!

[JAWS-Users] edit boxes and jaws and at prime helper
HI I noticed on the internet if I am writing in a comments field, NVDA tells me it is a multiline edit, whereas Jaws just says edit. Can this be changed somehow so jaws tells me the different types of edit fields more clearly? Also in windows mail, when I read a message, then press escape, I always have to shift tab back to the imbox. Can this be changed somehow so I am placed back into the inbox or message list right away? This issue seems to not be screen reader specific though. And also in windows mail. When in the message body, jaws just says message. Is there a way to have jaws indicate this is an edit box or document input area? Finally, a number of years ago, vict consultancy was working on a windows accessibility helper called at prime, this would let all screen readers access information and stuff on the screen that normally was not visible to screen readers. I would love to see VFO take over at prime and maybe either incorporate it into jaws, or sell it as a separate product. This way jaws could read and access even more on screen information.
