Re: [JAWS-Users] Microsoft Edge Inquiry

[Steve]

Edge is the new browser which aims to replace Internet Explorer.  It is on 
the Windows 10 operating system, although you can go into your defauolt 
programs with Windows-Key and the letter I, and make Internet Explorer your 
default browser if you want.
While the newest Jaws version works fairly well with Edge, there are still 
things you can't do that you can with Internet Explorer, or Google Chrome.

Evening all.

I recently did an update on my Dell laptop. After the updates were 
completed and JAWS resumed speaking, it mentioned something about 
Microsoft Edge. Can anyone tell me what MS Edge is or does? Thanks.

Having problems with Jaws announceing too much in Edge such as:
entering navigation, exiting navigation, entering search, exiting search, 
entering form, exiting form, etc here’s how to fix this so it works like other 
browsers:

turn off the automatic notification of web page positions in Microsoft Edge 
with the following steps. 

1.  Open the Microsoft Edge browser. 
2.  Press Insert+6, (the 6 on the alphabetic keypad’s number row), to open 
the “JAWS Settings Center”. 
3.  Press the down arrow, and then press the letter “s” to go to the Speech 
Verbosity tree view item, and press the right arrow to open it. 
4.  Press the down arrow once, and note which verbosity level you are 
using. 
5.  Press the down arrow again to “Configure Verbosity Levels”, and press 
the right arrow to open it. 
6.  Press the down arrow until you reach the verbosity level you are using 
and press the Spacebar to open the “Preferences” dialog box. 
7.  Press the down arrow until you reach the “Position Information” 
setting, press the Spacebar to uncheck it, and press Enter to close the dialog 
box. 
8.  Press the Enter key again to save the setting and close the “Setting 
Center”.
After closing settings center, jaws will ask if you want to save the changes 
you’ve made!
Wah lah!
E-mail is golden!!!

Re: [JAWS-Users] Microsoft edge?

[JM Casey]

You should get Adobe Reader or Acrobat to open it, or some third party
programme that's independent of your browser. The PDF browser add-ons are
not really ideal. Adobe has pretty nice screen-reader support built in,
although if the file is really large I recommend reading with something like
Qread, since Adobe takes forever to open and process large files even on a
nice system.

Hi,

Here's another way to make IE11 the default browser:

From: Carlos
1. Press Windows key+I, tab 1 time to, System, down arrow to, Apps, & press 
enter.
2. Tab 1 time to the Apps list, down arrow to, Default Apps, & press enter.

3. Tab to, Web Browser, and press Enter.
4. Tab until you find, Internet Explorer, and press Enter.  Internet 
Explorer should now be configured as the default browser.

Hi,

One thing to note.  If you are usking jaws 18 and you find that jaws is not
readiing in edge, make sure that edge support is enabled in the settings
center.  If it is not enabled it will not work.  If you can try jfw 2018 as
it miht work better for you.

Also under the Default settings, insert F6, then control shift D, there is a
setting that needs to be turned on for Edge, I did this once but can't
remember its exact name.  I still dislike Edge and set my default to I.E.
For a screen reader, regardless of the hype, Edge is horrible.

NVDA does not work with a more than 10-year-old Focus 80 I bought more than
10 years ago, thus I don't wish to spend a load of time fussing trying to
read all the tables in the manual I can't keep my fingers on.  It may work
with Edge, it may not.  Microsoft should make it work out of the box, since
they tout it so much and this should have been done on release of Windows 10
not over two years later.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Microsoft edge?

[Star Gazer]

Thank you Kevin. 
Upon closer inspection, the file I was looking at is a pdf file that
Microsoft Edge opened automatically when I clicked on it. 
How do I get JFW to read Microsoft edge or do I need to let Adobe play with
it?

IE should automatically prompt you that it is not the default browser when
you launch.  in case it doesn't it's in the advanced settings of IE, with IE
open alt key to tools, select internet options.  alt + tab to advanced tab
to make default you can also do this in windows settings win key + i when
windows says find a setting type default and press enter enter on default
app settings follow the prompts

[JAWS-Users] Microsoft Edge

Hi.  I sent a message to the list a couple of days ago explaining that I
made a bill payment online using Microsoft Edge using the most current
version of Jaws and didn't receive a response.  No wonder, I forgot to
reenable my membership.  Anyway, I've been off the list for over six weeks
or so.

I was playing with Edge this morning, browsing recipes.  I found one I
wanted to copy but it's not yet possible to do this either in JAWS or
Narrator.  Rather than search for the recipe using IE or Chrome, I opted for
a work-around.  I unloaded JAWS and pressed control a, for select all, then
pressed control c.  I then opened Word and pressed control v.  I then loaded
JAWS and there was the recipe, along with the rest of the web page.  Smile.
I just told JAWS to find one of the words in the recipe title, and then
deleted everything above and below the recipe. It was cumbersome, but it
worked.  The process was even easier when I tried the same thing using the
print button.  I tabbed through until I got to cancel and there was the
recipe, stripped of everything else.

Granted, it's far easier at this point to use IE or Chrome, but if you get

I think that you may be wrong saying that copying anything in Edge was
impossible. I haven't tried it but try this. Type jaws key spacebar, shift,
H to clear speech history. Then read what you wish to copy. Then press jaws
key, space bar, H to get your speech history. There it may be. Copy that and
you have it.

That's very interesting. Nice work, even though I've avoided Edge up until
this point (very happy with Firefox, but we'll see what happens after the
Quantum rollout I guess).

So which keystroke is JAWS interfering with, I wonder? You had to unload
JAWS for this to actually work; these are normal windows keystrokes though
that should work whether JAWS is loaded or not. I wonder

I must respectfully suggest that if you do have the option of updating

very very well.
It is highly accessible, I am an office 365 subscriber, so that is how
I was able to get the latest update.
I am unsure about installations of Office that are not on a 365
subscription, but I believe that you can go to the Accounts tab under
the file tab and attempt to check for updates.
I completely acknowledge the hideous situation with the Edge browser,
but I believe that Microsoft has been pretty transparent in making
their plans known to incrementally improve accessibility of their
Windows and Office products.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Microsoft Edge

[Fernando Gregoire]

I mostly agree. However, it's true that although you can still choose which 
Microsoft or non-Microsoft products to use, they're making change to 
non-microsoft alternatives harder than it was in the past, with no mention to 
the limitations imposed in Windows 10 S.
Regarding Office accessibility, it's also nice to have many tutorials for 
accomplishing various tasks by using a screen reader. The Office Accessibility 
Center addresses a lot of concerns on this.

I can only speak for myself, but one of the big reasons I have always prefered 
PCs over Macs, and Android phones over iPhones, is the amount of choice 
available. I sympathise with thsoe who really want to use Edge and want it to 
work for them, but the truth is that you don't have to use Microsoft's products 
if they dont' make you happy. Firefox is still a great browser and it's fully 
supported in JAWS. Chrome works beautifully nowadays when three years ago that 
wasn't at all the case. Don't be afraid of choice. Embrace it. Nobody has to 
use Edge and because of the nature of the WWW, that will never be the case. I 
think Microsoft is a lot better with accessibility concerns now than they used 
to be. Its' not perfect, but that's something we should at least be somewhat 
accustomed to by now. Remember when Windows 3.1 came out, and everyone was 
using it except for blind people because of how crap the screen reader support 
was at the time?

And yeah, office accessibility is a work in progress, but they're doing a lot 
to improve it with every update. I can understand why Office is an 
accessibility priority and not Edge. Simply put, there just isn't really a 
great replacement for mS office out there; there's a good reason most of the 
working world still uses it. Edge is just one browser among several.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Microsoft Edge

[Rose]

I find it very annoying that Microsoft concentrates of dyslexia, visual
disability if one can actually see and magnify the screen and expects one to
use Narrator for Edge after nearly two years of Windows 10 which keeps
changing keystrokes to do much of anything.  If this is complete
accessibility then it is a crying shame.  Last said on the subject.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Microsoft Edge

[Tom Behler]

Regarding the spell check when using Word 2016, I do agree that the ability
to access the functions via the tab key is quite convenient.

It took me a while to figure out the change between Word 2010 and Word 2016,
but the tab key navigation feature is really nice.

I must respectfully suggest that if you do have the option of updating Word
2016 to the very latest version, the choices in the spell check dialog are
now accessed by simply pressing the tab key, and it works very very well.
It is highly accessible, I am an office 365 subscriber, so that is how I was
able to get the latest update.
I am unsure about installations of Office that are not on a 365
subscription, but I believe that you can go to the Accounts tab under the
file tab and attempt to check for updates.
I completely acknowledge the hideous situation with the Edge browser, but I
believe that Microsoft has been pretty transparent in making their plans
known to incrementally improve accessibility of their Windows and Office
products.

that will never be the case. I think Microsoft is a lot better with
accessibility concerns now than they used to be. Its' not perfect, but
that's something we should at least be somewhat accustomed to by now.
Remember when Windows 3.1 came out, and everyone was using it except for
blind people because of how crap the screen reader support was at the time?

And yeah, office accessibility is a work in progress, but they're doing a
lot to improve it with every update. I can understand why Office is an
accessibility priority and not Edge. Simply put, there just isn't really a
great replacement for mS office out there; there's a good reason most of the
working world still uses it. Edge is just one browser among several.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Microsoft Edge

I can only speak for myself, but one of the big reasons I have always  
prefered PCs over Macs, and Android phones over iPhones, is the amount  
of choice available. I sympathise with thsoe who really want to use  
Edge and want it to work for them, but the truth is that you don't  
have to use Microsoft's products if they dont' make you happy. Firefox  
is still a great browser and it's fully supported in JAWS. Chrome  
works beautifully nowadays when three years ago that wasn't at all the  
case. Don't be afraid of choice. Embrace it. Nobody has to use Edge  
and because of the nature of the WWW, that will never be the case. I  
think Microsoft is a lot better with accessibility concerns now than  
they used to be. Its' not perfect, but that's something we should at

I must respectfully suggest that if you do have the option of updating
Word 2016 to the very latest version, the choices in the spell check
dialog are now accessed by simply pressing the tab key, and it works
very very well.
It is highly accessible, I am an office 365 subscriber, so that is how

I am unsure about installations of Office that are not on a 365

Hi Judy,
Edge's accessibility layer has enhanced a little bit since Windows 10 build
10240, but it's still too far even from IE, even using Narrator.
Specifically for JAWS, unlike NVDA JAWS does not provide Virtual Cursor
Support in Edge's browsing area nor any UWP app using the Edge rendering
engine other than Mail. Therefore, the only way to use Edge content, which
is not convenient, is to use the JAWS Touch Cursor, preferably with Advanced
Object Navigation enabled.
NVDA is enhancing its Edge support a lot from version to version, but even
they still warns of the fact that Edge's reliability with screen readers is
far from the expected for everyday browsing.
Despite poorness of Edge's accessibility layer, I think it's time for
Freedom Scientific to bring at least a minimum support for Edge browser and
engine, as UWP apps and Cortana use this engine even when you set another
default browser. Redirecting Cortana's web search results to other browser
when JAWS is running is not the best solution, especially when searching for
local content.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Microsoft Edge

[Jason White]

Microsoft have been improving the accessibility of their setup process
lately. I was recently able to configure a new laptop (out of the box,
literally) using Narrator all the way up to the point of installing JAWS,
without any assistance.

Linux and Mac users (I'm in both categories) have been able to do this for a
long time now. Microsoft is catching up, however, and the third-party screen
reader solutions available for the Windows environment are very rich in
features - more so than you'll find elsewhere.

[JAWS-Users] Jaws users Microsoft Edge

[Michael Massey]

Hi, Judy.  As Debby and others have posted, Jaws is not yet accessible with
Edge.  I did use Edge with Narrator to pay a bill online using my bank's
website and its bill pay service.  I also tried using Nvda on another
website and gave up, then I used I E and completed my task, smile.  I am not
saying that I haven't used Nvda before today because I used it a few weeks
ago using Edge to log into my bank's website as well.  Oh, and when I used
Edge and Narrator to navigate my bank's website, I had to use the tab key to
get to the buttons I needed to press.  I guess I'd better learn some
Narrator key commands to better access the various links and buttons, smile.

Ihave heard that it works well with NVDA, but how well, I do not know, and
have not yet tried it out.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Microsoft Edge

[Rose]

Two years since Microsoft Edge has been almost mandatory for every one using
Windows 10 until you switch the default at least, and still not truly
accessible to anyone unless you use narrator.  This from company who claims
to want accessibility out of the box,.  I am supposed to believe they really
do consider screen readers along with magnification but truly, totally blind
people are being left out again!  Just use the spell check in Word 2016 or
Outlook 2016 for example, why did they break what has worked for the past 20
years, eye candy, that is why!

Re: [JAWS-Users] Microsoft Edge

[Joseph Lee]

Hi,
There was a whole thread devoted to this on another list, with the consensus
being that it isn't ready for JAWS users but is coming along nicely. A few
days ago someone posted a tutorial on Microsoft Edge with another screen
reader.
Cheers,
Joseph

That's no surprise. In the Freedom Scientific podcasts about JAWS 18, 
they said they were still working on making Edge accessible.

Hi,
Actually, you can use touch cursor with Edge. However, it is best to wait
for a while until at least a later build of JAWS 18.

No, you can not remove the built-in apps from W-10. If you do not want to
use them. Make sure they are turned off under the background apps. Turn
their live tile off in the apps list view of the Start area. Read my guide
on how to do these things.
