David,
I'll begin by admitting I never use the Window-Eyes Insert-s command. My preference is Windows-b. Also I have never attempted to access the Systray from the We control Panel. However, when I just tried your steps to create the systray issue, I could not do so. I opened the Window-Eyes Control panel and pressed Insert-s. I located Eset, my antivirus program, and pressed Enter. I was placed into the menu as expected. I am using the Window-Eyes 7.2 beta with Windows XP Home SP3. Suzy! The Blind Avenger! Doing everything possible to prove that blind people can. _____ From: David [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, April 09, 2010 2:17 AM To: WE English mailing list Subject: SysTray problem This situation, has been the case for all the time I can remember, in WE. I will here but give one example, but it happens in a long range of cases. Wonder why, and if there is - or can be - a fix for it. Many a software place themselve in the SysTray. Sometimes, the entry is but a notification, but in many cases, it is more of a menu bar. Like with your AntiVirus. Scrolling down the list, and pressing ENTER on the AntiVirus, you will have a menu of choices opening, specifically for the AntiVirus software. Well, that is what it is supposed to do, and does in certain cases. But this is exactly where my challenge sits. If, for instance, you are in Windows Explorer, then press INS-S, and scroll down to your AntiVirus and hit ENTER; everything work just fine. On the other hand, try go to WE controlPanel, by CTRL-\. Then press INS-S, and repeat the steps. When pressing ENTER on your AntiVirus this time, you are thrown back to WE ControlPanel, and nothing more happens - no menu opened this time. I do see the same behavior, if I am in one of my firewall's windows, and try to access any stuff in the SysTray. You can scroll the list, but soon as you hit ENTER, expecting the submenu to open, you are simply thrown back to your original window. If you are in other windows - i.e Notepad, Outlook Express, Windows Explorer, your net browser etc - and try to access any stuff in the SysTray, everything work perfectly well, and you will be given the submenus. Why is this happening. It simply doesn't make sense, that your access to the submenus of the stuff in the SysTray, will be depending on which window you are in, when opening the SysTray. Really hope that GW can have a fix for this, before the 7.2 will be released. At least, I find it rather bothersome, not to be able to have the full access in SysTray, no matter what project I am currently working on. _____ I am using the Free version of SPAMfighter <http://www.spamfighter.com/len> .
