Hi.

 

I'm writing scripts for the Online Bible program. In this program, when the
user is in a passage window, the left and right arrow keys don't move the pc
cursor by character, but by verse. Each verse is its own paragraph. I
created scripts for the left and right arrows that read the paragraph once
the cursor has been allowed to move. These read fine for the most part. The
problem is that they don't work when the window is new until I've already
pressed one of the arrow keys. So anytime I do anything that creates one of
these passage windows, whether it be a phrase search when I'm already in the
program or whether I alt+tab to it from another program, I have to press
either the left or right arrow key once before either of the scripts work.
Does anyone have any ideas on why this might be happening? I've tried
modifying the focusChangedEvent to do a NextCharacter followed by a
PriorCharacter to first move my arrow key for me then get me back to where I
was, but this isn't a good idea for the following reason. The only way that
would work efficiently would be to determine by window class that I'm in the
right kind of window and not some other sort of window like the place where
I punch in the passage I want to open, but JAWS isn't able to determine that
either, until I move either left or right arrow to sort of initialize
things. Therefore, I'm forced to have the FocusChangedEvent move my arrow
key then move me back all the time, which causes JAWS to pause for a second
or so before it reads the newly focused window. I hope this is enough
information, but if anyone needs me to clarify anything or answer other
questions about the code, I'll be more than happy to help you help me.
