Morne, Posted this a while back . Hope it works for you. Rick In the system tray go to speakers and use the context key to open the menu of choices. Select Volume mixer Note Simply pressing enter will get you volume mixer, however activating it with the enter key will not show sliders for JAWS or system sounds.
When opened, you can tab between the sliders as you might move your hands on a physical mixing board. The first slider is labeled Speaker volume and JAWS focus will be on the title of that slider. Tab again and Jaws says Up, Down slider and speaks the percentage of volume as it is currently set. NOTE focus on all other sliders will announce the item that the slider will adjust. For example "Up Down slider for system sounds ". The up and down arrow keys will adjust the slider and JAWS speaks the percentage of volume. Tab again and you will land on the Mute button for that item. For example, Mute System sounds. Spacebar toggles between mute and unmute There should be a separate slider for system sounds and for JAWS . If other audio features are enabled you will find sliders for these as well. Escape leaves the Mixer but setting are automatically save. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Morne van der Merwe Sent: Friday, August 18, 2017 3:58 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [JAWS-Users] Jaws and volume Hello listers. Latest versions of both Windows 10 and Jaws. I would like to change the volume of JAWS without changing the overall volume of my computer. Is there a way to do it? Your help is much appreciated.
