Hi JM, find and expand, speech and sounds schemes. down arrow to and activate modify schemes. Tab to, Edit scheme, & press the spacebar. control+tab to html tab. tab and down arrow to on click speak. tab and down arrow to ignore. tab to and activate ok. Now you have to save this modified scheme. This will get you started, & you will get it all figured out once you're in there.
Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. Arguing with a woman is like reading a software license agreement. In the end you have to ignore everything, & click I agree. ----- Original Message ----- From: JM Casey To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, January 10, 2018 4:31 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Why does JAWS say "clickable" when it isn't? Well, I'm looking in speech/sound schemes, and I can find every "attribute" I can think of, except this one. "draggable", "droppable", but no "clickable". -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Cristóbal Sent: January 10, 2018 7:20 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Why does JAWS say "clickable" when it isn't? Agree. The very few times where there's an element that can be clicked through for me at least doesn't warrant this feature to be enabled. Besides, you can more or less tell if and when you can click on something to bring up a dialog on the page. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of net bat66 Sent: Wednesday, January 10, 2018 4:17 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Why does JAWS say "clickable" when it isn't? its not useful as far as i am concerned. both window eyes and n v d a does the same thing. and so far none of these so called clickables click on anything. if i could turn this off for all my screen readers i would do it. its totally useless to me. -----Original Message----- From: JM Casey Sent: Wednesday, January 10, 2018 4:06 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Why does JAWS say "clickable" when it isn't? Hey Cristobal. Yes, I know I can disable it, but having JAWS detect these elements is potentially useful. It just seems like it's doing it wrong, and I'd like to know why that is. I know I'm not the only one; does everyone else just turn the whole thing off, or live with it? -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Crist bal Sent: January 10, 2018 7:03 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Why does JAWS say "clickable" when it isn't? Disable the detect elements setting in your Jaws settings. Going off of memory so the exact terminology may be off, but it's easy to find. I'm sure someone else will provide step by step instructions if needed. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of JM Casey Sent: Wednesday, January 10, 2018 4:00 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [JAWS-Users] Why does JAWS say "clickable" when it isn't? Hey everyone. I know this topic came up here some time ago, but I'm afraid it wasn't relevant to me at the time and wasn't a thread I took the time to read. So, sorry for bringing it up again. But yes, I was just wondering about this. I understand that there often *is* "clickable" text on a webpage, and JAWS is trying to inform me of this fact. But on many pages, every line will say "clickable", even though there is nothing to click/nothing happens when you click. Why is this? And can I get a happy medium somewhere? Obviously I don't want to miss important information about a page, but when I'm reading a wikipedia article or IMDB review or something and hear "clickable, clickable, clickable", on what appears to be static text - that just seems like weird, excessive noise.
