Correct that is not the same. David Ferrin www.jaws-users.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Feist" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, November 25, 2007 11:53 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Turning off Jaws speech
I'm a little confused. When muting JAWS, that's not the same as unloading JAWS, correct? If that's the case, if you mute JAWS and then let a sighted person use your computer, they may run into problems. I say that because when JAWS is running, and when I let a sighted person use the computer, JAWS conflicts with some things they are trying to do--especially when it comes to them selecting edit fields. And also I would assume that the JAWS hot keys would still be active, even if it's muted. That could cause some confusion as well. The sighted user gets very frustrated, so I have to turn JAWS off so they can use the computer properly. If all that's true about the mute, I'd recommend unloading JAWS rather than muting it if you're only doing so to let someone else use the computer. That's now what I do, and when they're done I just use the JAWS hot key to bring it back up.
