Oh, well that's great news!! I was willing to accept that it
would keep telling me "static dialog", "list item", "push
button", "list box", and all the rest of the info I did not care
about, but that it can be told to not do so is yet another check
in the "pros" column!
Have a great day,
Alex

I heard about that in the options menu, but when the demonstrator
set it to "off", it still said "list item" after the option,
which made me think it would work only on some information, not
all. If you turn this off, for example, will a yes or no prompt
say "yes" or "confirm" only, instead of "yes button" or whatever
it says?
Have a great day,

Hi all,
I am listening to the file manager and wordprocessor demo by
Raul
and Jeremy. The interface, such as moving through a file list
or
menu, seems unnecessarily verbose. For example, in a menu,
could
you not have the type of interface that an option would open
spoken? The "goto" menu in the wordprocessor has an item
something like: "search, s, common dialog, space-f". I do not
care that the find will be a common dialog, I just want it
spoken
and that is it. Similarly, is it necessary to say "list item"
after each file? Of course they are all list items; it is a list
of files and folders! The main programs menu does not do this,
so
why does it everywhere else? Again, I am not a user, so could
anyone comment on this? Is it something you do not even notice,
or does anyone think that the interface can get too verbose at
times? Sorry for all the questions. If it makes you feel
better,
I will probably be calling GWM Monday and keeping some poor
customer service rep on the phone with my "newbie" questions
until well after the point at which, were this poor fellow not
trapped on the other side of the phone, he would have throttled
me. :) Thanks for your patience; it is really hard to
understand
a device like this without being able to actually use one, even
for ten minutes!!
Have a great day,
Alex
