Hi all, I've been having an issue that I'm hoping one of you can help me with. I use Win Eyes 7.2 at home and work on Win XP machines. I also use IE 8 on both. At home, when I open a browser session, either by my keyboard shortcut or by clicking a link in an email, the IE 8 window opens maximized. Sometimes if I click a link within a browser session, the new window opens up minimized. At work, we were just upgraded to IE 8 and my browser windows always open small and need to be maximized.
The issue I have is that, when the IE windows open and are not maximized, I try to use alt plus space-bar to access the little menu to select maximize, but most often Window Eyes, the mouse and the arrow keys or "x" on the keyboard won't work and will not allow me to select maximize. I can usually press Escape and get speech back. Sometimes I'm able to use my remaining vision to get the mouse onto the maximize option, but this doesn't always work. Sometimes I think it occurs when the page is content rich and is still loading, but it also seems to happen after I think the pages are fully loaded. It's obviously a bigger problem at work where all my browser windows need to be maximized. So, two questions... 1. Is there a way to set the default to always maximize my browser windows, as it seems to do at home? 2. Any idea why this lock up issue happens at all? I did not have this issue when using IE 6 on this same computer. Robin Email Classification: KeyCorp Public This communication may contain privileged and/or confidential information.
