Hello Freddy,
There are a couple settings I changed in my copy of the Theophilos 3 program
that you might want to change also. Use CTRL+T when in the program to bring
up the settings dialog box. If focus is not in the "Bible" page tab then
use tab key to move to where the page tabs are and then use right or left
arrow keys to find the Bible tab. Use tab key in the Bible page of the
dialog box and find the checkbox for "read by line." If you check the box
then when you have a block of text to be read JAWS will read it a line at a
time when you use the up or down arrow keys. After checking the box use tab
key to move back to the page tabs and use right or left arrow keys to move
to the multimedia page of the dialog box. CTRL+tab doesn't always work to
move between pages. You can then use tab key to the checkbox for playing a
sound on startup and if you don't want the sound played then use spacebar to
remove the checkmark. use tab key to the OK button and press spacebar to
close the dialog box.
The program should start in either the library or Bible page and you can use
the tab key to move to the different lists. Use tab a couple of times and
you will here "Bible" in the tree view. Use tab key to move to the list of
books of the Bible. You can use first letter navigation to quickly move to
a specific book or use up and down arrow keys. Use tab key to move to the
chapter list after selecting a book and you can use up or down arrow keys or
the first digit of a number to move more quickly to a specific chapter. use
tab key again to move to the verse selection and either use up and down
arrow keys to move to a specific verse or press the first digit of a number
until you get to the verse you want. Use enter key to move to the verse.
Focus will be at the verse you chose. Use normal reading commands to read
the text. Using down arrow will move a line at a time if you made the
change for reading by line in the settings. If you want to get a commentary
for a certain word in a verse then route JAWS to PC cursor using JAWS
key+minus key if using a desktop or JAWS key with left bracket key if using
a laptop. After routing JAWS cursor to the word use a double left mouse
button click. If using a desktop use the slash on the number pad twice
quickly. If using a laptop use JAWS key with the number 8 on the number row
or the keyboard twice quickly. focus will move into a window with
commentary. Use normal navigating and reading in this window. use escape
key to clear the commentary window and return to the text. F4 can be used
to move to previous window and F5 to next window in the program.
The searching capabilities are also good. You can search by any or all
words or you can search by phrases. CTRL+F brings up the Find dialog box.
Write me off list if I can give any more info that will help you with this
program.
Take care.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] theophilo 3
Greetings everyone,
Guess who? Fast Freddy Rides again! I am writing today to ask
if
anyone is familiar with the bible program called theophilo's 3. If so,
does
anyone have any tips on how to navigate this program using JAWS. The
program
is suppose to be very JAWS friendly but, I am having alittle trouble
trying
to figure my way around. If anyone knows where I can find a tutorial on
how
to use the program please give me directions. Thanks in advance. Blue
skies
and green lights.
"With great power comes great responsibility."
Sincerely yours,
Fred
