I agree, what a nice solution to be able to quickly access the controls to change volume. I have also made a hot key so that if I do a control key plus alt key and letter V, I am in the dialogue box where I can page up or page down to raise volume on the fly. Or I can tab to jaws or internet explorer and change those volumes independently. This is handy for me as I listen to Serious radio on my laptop and listen to business programs in the background and sometimes want to quickly raise or lower the volume for either just internet explorer or jaws. So you guessed it, I like many others, try and multi task. I really like the great solutions the list shares. John in sunny Florida

Thanks very much for this, such a simple solution. I put a shortcut key of alt+ctrl+shift+v. The focus lands straight on the slider bar, it works in the reverse order e.g. right arrow decrease the volume and left increased it I think but who cares. It does actually change the volume on the fly as well. Thanks again for your help. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Flor Lynch Sent: 12 December 2012 12:01 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Controling The Volume In the Windows search edit type sndvol . that opeens a dialogue.
