Hi Fernando,

Without knowing what level of verboscity you run, have you looked to see 
what your settings in the Jaws quick settings / Options / Basics are set at? 
You're an advanced / very knowlebgeable Jaws computer operator, so I would 
imagine you have, but just throwing the suggestion out there.  Also has a 
setting in Speech & Sound Schemes possibly changed?
Take care.  Mike.  Sent from my iBarstool.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] JAWS is not speaking control descriptions


Hi all,



Since many versions ago, JAWS is not reading the control descriptions even 
when I have this item checked in the current verbosity level settings. If I 
want to get this data, I manually have to locate the Touch Cursor with 
Advanced Object Navigation on the desired control, press ALT+ENTER and find 
the value of the HelpText property, which obviously is slow and often 
useless.

Does someone know how I could fix this to match the behavior of some old 
versions like JAWS 9, in which this verbosity setting was always honored? I 
am using Windows 10 Fall Creators Update and JAWS 2018. It would be useful 
to quickly know the information about commands in Office programs like Excel 
that are complex and I don't use on a daily basis.



Thanks in advance,

Fernando Gregoire
