Hi:
freedomscientific.com
Use H for headings until you get to:
Software releases:
Down arrow one time to.
Jaws 17 released date today link, press enter.
Follow the information that the F S web site gives you.
A user of the Jaws program needs to know how to use the Freedom Scientific
web site, its easy .
If everyone keeps giving them the links, they will not learn how to use the
site themselves.
For a person just starting out, I can see helping them, by emailing them the
download link off the list.
But I see the same people asking for the Jaws links year after year, this is
being lazy.
Please learn how to use the freedom scientific web site for your own good.
Love God! with your heart, mind, and soul, that you might be blessed
reaching His goal.
Love your Neighbor as you would yourself, God will truly reward you with
good health.
Love God, your neighbor, as you love yourself, you will then be spiritually
balanced with wealth.
Love His Word that proceeds from His lips, then reflect on the heavens where
God sits.
Jim

And here is list of changes:
Enhancements in JAWS 17.0.1539 (March 2016)
The following is a list of improvements made between the JAWS 17 January
2016 release and the March 2016 update.
To download the latest release, visit the Downloads web page.
Receive Notifications from JAWS About New FSCast Episodes
FSCast is Freedom Scientific's podcast featuring news, interviews, and
product demonstrations relating to Freedom Scientific products. When a new
episode is available, JAWS now displays a dialog box containing
information
about the episode. You can then choose whether to listen to the current
episode, go to the FSCast web page to hear the current episode as well as
prior episodes, or be reminded again later. Press ESC or choose Cancel to
not be notified again until the next episode is available. This feature is
especially helpful for users who do not regularly access podcasts through
applications like iTunes, but still want to know when a new FSCast is
available.
Note: If you choose the Listen Now button, the current episode is played
using Windows Media Player. If Windows Media Player is not installed, JAWS
opens the FSCast web page and places focus on the latest episode so you
can
download and play it using your preferred media player.
FSCast notifications are on by default in the English version of JAWS.
Since FSCast content is only in English, this feature is off by default in
non-English versions. However, it can be enabled in Settings Center.
Search
in the Default file for "FS" and you will find the option.
Adobe Acrobat
A number of users reported issues with their systems becoming very
sluggish while using JAWS with Adobe Acrobat, including when using
ALT+TAB, or when scanning to a document. JAWS was attempting to
request information from Acrobat which it was not receiving and
eventually both products became unresponsive. We have made changes
in
JAWS to prevent this situation from occurring and we believe this
issue is now resolved with this update.
Braille
In response to customer feedback, if you have a line of dashes such
as a separator on a web page, JAWS no longer shortens the line to
one
or two dashes on the braille display.
If you type "tri" without the quotes from the braille display, JAWS
no longer inserts a triangle bullet.
The Euro symbol (dot 4 followed by dots 1-5) and the British pounds
sterling symbol (dot 4 followed by dots 4-5-6) are now displayed
correctly in Contracted English Braille.
If JAWS is configured for Unified English Braille Grade 2 input and
you type dot 6 followed by a ch-sign (dots 1-6), the proper text is
now being inserted.
When braille output is set to Unified English Grade 2, resolved an
issue where a single space before and after a dash character was not
being shown on the braille display.
In response to customer feedback, Tibetan is now correctly displayed
in the list of braille languages located in the Translation group in
Settings Center.
JAWS
Addressed an intermittent issue where searching for a JAWS keystroke
using the JAWS Command Search feature (INSERT+SPACEBAR, J) would
sometimes not return any results.
If JAWS and MAGic are running together, addressed a customer
reported
issue where the CAPSLOCK+Mouse Wheel was not changing the
magnification level.
Addressed a customer reported issue with the Pitch slider in the
Voice Adjustment dialog box not working as expected for Vocalizer
Expressive voices.
You can now perform the layered command INSERT+SPACEBAR followed by
Z
to load the JAWS factory settings. This enables you to override your
current user settings and any customized scrips with the default
settings and scripts to help troubleshoot any issues you may be
experiencing. Perform this command again to switch back to your
current user settings.
If JAWS is configured to start automatically at the logon screen or
after you have logged into Windows, you can now press and hold both
the LEFT SHIFT and RIGHT SHIFT keys as Windows boots, or after you
have logged in, to prevent JAWS from starting. This is useful if you
need to troubleshoot any startup related issues you may be
experiencing.
Addressed an issue with the German version of JAWS where some
braille
displays, such as the Alva Delphi series, were not available from
the
Synthesizer and Braille Manager on a 32-bit system.
Addressed a customer reported issue with the German version of JAWS
where it was not possible to enter a lower case w in the Script
Manager editor.
Web Browsers
JAWS now supports the ARIA-flowto property in Internet Explorer
similar to how it works in Firefox. Web authors can use this on
elements to specify an alternative reading order for a page. JAWS
will indicate whether an element "has flows to" or "has flows from".
Pressing EQUALS moves focus to the element related to the current
element by a FlowTo relationship while pressing SHIFT+EQUALS moves
focus to the element related to the current element by a FlowFrom
relationship.
Addressed an issue in Google Sheets where pressing ALT+DOWN ARROW
was
moving by one cell instead of to the end of the block.
Addressed reported issues in Firefox with JAWS not automatically
announcing content changes in ARIA live regions on certain web
sites.
Microsoft Excel
Improved JAWS support for adding or modifying cell comments. To add
a
comment, press SHIFT+F2, type your comment into the edit field, and
then press ENTER. If you press SHIFT+F2 from a cell that already
contains a comment, the edit field contains the text of the comment.
Make any necessary changes to the text and then press ENTER.
Resolved an issue where entries in some drop down lists were not
being spoken or displayed in braille when using Excel in Windows 8
and later.
Microsoft Outlook
Resolved an issue with not being able to create a new folder in
Outlook 2016 using JAWS.
JAWS now reads as expected in the Office 365 Outlook 2016 calendar.
When focused on a file attachment in Outlook 2016, resolved an issue
where pressing ALT+DOWN ARROW to open a menu of possible actions for
the attachment was not working as expected.
Microsoft PowerPoint
During a slideshow, resolved an issue where JAWS was not indicating
in speech or braille when items were bulleted.
Microsoft Word
Resolved an issue where JAWS was announcing the wrong text after
deleting in Word 2013 and 2016.
Resolved a reported issue with the German version of JAWS where both
Word and JAWS became unresponsive while navigating certain documents
and a braille display was connected.
Addressed reported issues with opening drop down combo boxes in
certain Word forms. Note that some combo boxes require you to press
ENTER to access them while others require you to press ALT+DOWN
ARROW
.
Mozilla Thunderbird
Addressed a customer reported issue with JAWS becoming sluggish or
unexpectedly closing when using INSERT+CTRL+F or F3 to search for
text in a message.
Windows
Resolved a customer reported issue where JAWS was not reading the
correct status of buttons in various Windows 10 Settings dialog
boxes.
JAWS performance in Cortana dialog boxes has been improved.
In the Windows 10 Calculator, the value in the results field will
now
always be shown on the braille display so the current result is
always available no matter which button currently has focus.
