Hello Shannon. Is this list box inside a regular Windows program, or is
it via a terminal program such as using telnet or ssh to reach a remote
server.
many thanks.

Well I thought that was going to work but my mouse will not track.
I made sure to set the "SET highlight hot key". I made sure to set the
highlight color. I set the mouse to track highlight. I set the window
under the mouse as the highlight window. (Which I have the entire look
up screen maximized.) I set the up arrow to first action to execute hot
key and set it to route to highlight, and second action to execute hot
key and second info to speak mouse current line.
My mouse will not move up or down with the highlight bar.And WE is still
speaking where it came from before it says where it landed.
Another totally goofy thing is that Setting the up and down arrows to
absolutely nothing does nothing. WE is still speaking the same stuff.
Why won't my mouse track this highlight bar?
I can move the mouse to a line and press the speak line and it is
correct. When I click with the mouse on the entry the highlight moves
but we is announcing the place the highlight came from before saying the
item I just highlighted with the mouse.
What is going on?

Yep, and that was going to be my next suggestion. You can undefine the
up and down arrow from the cursoring menu. Remember that cursor keys
still are seen by the application even if WE does not do anything with
them. Next from the mouse menu set track focus to on and now as you
press up or down, just press mouse read line with is numpad 5. Now
that I think as I type, for the up and down arrow, you could have the
action be execute hot key and have the hot key it executes be read
mouse line.
Many thanks.

Well that was worth a try, smile.
Changing the up arrow with the curser menue to anything else like next
line or highlight resulted in WE saying the one it landed on then the
one it came from then repeating the one it landed on. Lots of stuff to
ignore to get what you want. Shrug I even tried to set the second entry
to highlight and or line and it just kept repeating itself. It said the
one it landed on, then the one it came from the one it landed on and
again the one it landed on.
I have even played with the delay factor and still no luck.
Is there a way to shut them up all together and some how have the mouse
follow the highlighted bar? the mouse dosn't repeat itself.

Yep, I got another idea, but this would only work while you are in
this list box. Window-Eyes has a cursoring dialog box which you can
define what cursor keys do when you press them. The key itself ist
sill passed to the application, but Window-Eyes also performs an
action. So for example, normally, when you press up arrow, the line is
read, when you press down arrow, the line is read. You could hack it
by changing the behavior of what happens when you press up or down
arrow. You may need to play with these, but perhaps you can have up
and down arrow read "Line next". You do this by going into the
cursoring dialog box and finding the down arrow and the up arrow
entries. In each, change the action to "line next". Press enter and
give it a try and see if it works. Remember though, this will only
work while you are in this list box. If you go to other areas of the
program, you will most likely want the arrows reading line as they do
by default.
Good luck.

Raul,
Thanks for the suggestion, but it didn't work. I even went so far
as to
up it to 99 and WE is still repeating the item it was previously on.
If moving down it is speeking the one I just left before speeking the
one the Highlight is on and if moving up WE is saying the one it had
been on before saying what the highlight bar is on now.
Got another idea?
Thanks for the help
Shannon

Hi. You can try setting your cursor delay to something higher than 1
which is the default. perhaps 5 or 10 and see if that makes a
difference. This is found under the general menu of WE.

Hello,
I hope I can explain this correctly. Here goes.
I have a field in our accounting package where you are to enter the
vendor number. If you don't know it you can press F2 and a look
up box
appears.
The curser is in a box at the bottom of the screen where you can
start
typing the number of the vender and as you do the choices that start
with that are the only ones shown. Or if you tab once you are in
a box
where you can start typing the name or a part of the name of the
vender
and the matching items are shown. In both cases You can use the
arrow
keys to arrow up and down through the list. Here is the problem;
WE is repeating the item it was on last before announcing the
current
line that is highlighted for selection.
I tried to use the vertulizer window and route the mouse to that
item
and again it is either one above the one I wanted or below the one I
wanted.
I tried to use the Navigator script too. (excuse me if I named that
wrong.)
I can get WE to travel up and down the list with the insert arrow
keys
but again what WE is saying Is not the one it is really on.
I can use the mouse to go up and down the list but turning on and
off
the number key pad is a pain because I have to do it often. I
need the
numpad allot, after all this is an accounting program. Smile
Does anyone have any suggestions to help me solve this problem?
This is WE 7.11 XP3
Color scheme high contrast black.
All suggestions are welcome!
Thanks
Shannon
