I have started using Google Drive in the last week.  I have used it to
create a form that requires responses.  Some of the Google hot keys are
pretty good.  Others not so much.  For my purposes, I managed to get it to
work.  It did take me some time, and I've been using JAWS for 18 years.  I
would like to help you more.  Perhaps, we can learn together.  I did
download the Google Drive to my hard drive.  IE 11 may not be your best bet
when trying to access it.

Subject: Using JAWS with Google Drive

Hello list:

 

I have just joined this list and apologize if this topic has been addressed
previously. I am trying to use Google Drive with JAWS 15 and Internet
Explorer 11.9. I have downloaded several versions of shortcut keys to assist
and know that the documentation seems to recommend Firefox. I am planning to
use this with students who are only using Internet Explorer. 

 

I have played with the Virtual Cursor off and on, but have found several
things that I cannot seem to make work. 

Highlighting seems to be hit or miss and when things seem to be highlighted,
the cut or copy commands to not work and I get the message that nothing is
highlighted.

I cannot seem to make the navigation commands work to move to different
areas of the screen. I am new to using this application, but I am very
familiar with JAWS. Does anyone have any information to make using Google
Drive a better experience? Thanks in advance.

 

Diana
