>> 
>> JAWS 17 Features
>> Smart Navigation, More Efficient Interaction with Complex Web Pages 
>> and Applications
>> 
>> Today and in the future, users will be faced with an increased need 
>> to work with complex web forms, tables, and even applications that 
>> run inside of a web browser. This will impact your day to day 
>> interactions with services on-line such as banking and shopping, in 
>> addition to many web apps found in both companies and government 
>> agencies. For instance, Internet Explorer can be used to log onto a 
>> Microsoft SharePoint server to collaborate with other co-workers and 
>> create and store documents. The new Smart NavigationT feature is 
>> designed to make it more efficient when navigating web-based 
>> applications with the Virtual Cursor as the LEFT and RIGHT ARROW or 
>> CTRL+LEFT and
>> CTRL+RIGHT ARROW commands move by control instead of character and word.
>> This makes navigation such as moving across toolbars, tab strips, and 
>> navigation links more like navigating around a desktop application.
>> Pressing the Say Character, Say Word, or Say Line commands twice 
>> quickly changes to the traditional navigation by character, word, 
>> line, sentence, and paragraph so you can review the text of the 
>> control. Smart Navigation resumes when you move to a different 
>> control by
> pressing UP or DOWN ARROW or TAB.
>> Alternatively, you can use the INSERT+X command to quickly toggle 
>> between Smart Navigation and the more traditional character and word 
>> navigation depending on the type of web site you are navigating.
>> 
>> 
>> For example, if you use the LEFT and RIGHT ARROW keys to move across 
>> a tab strip, you might hear JAWS announce something like; "Home tab
> selected,"
>> "Insert
>> tab," and "Page Layout tab." If you wanted to review the items on the 
>> tab strip character by character, press the Say Character (NUM PAD 
>> 5), Say Word (INSERT+NUM PAD 5), or Say Line (INSERT+UP ARROW) 
>> commands twice
> quickly.
>> You can now navigate by character or word until you press DOWN ARROW 
>> to move away from the tab strip to another control.
>> 
>> Smart Navigation is off by default. To turn it on, there are a few ways.
>> 
>> The quickest way to enable Smart Navigation is through the Startup 
>> Wizard which automatically launches after JAWS is installed. When the 
>> wizard starts, select the Next button until you reach the Common 
>> Options page. You will be focused on a group of radio buttons where 
>> you can use the ARROW keys to choose the Smart Navigation option you 
>> want to use (Controls and Tables or Controls). Pressing TAB moves you 
>> to another group of radio buttons that allow you to select how Forms 
>> Mode activates. For the best experience with Smart Navigation, it is 
>> recommended that users set Forms Mode to Semi-Auto or Manual.
>> This prevents JAWS from unexpectedly turning on Forms Mode while 
>> navigating with the ARROW keys. Once you have changed the options you 
>> want, continue selecting Next until you reach the Braille Settings 
>> page and then select Finish to save your changes. Smart Navigation 
>> will now be enabled for any environments that use the Virtual Cursor.
>> 
>> Alternatively, Smart Navigation can be configured through Settings 
>> Center or Quick Settings. For instance, you may want to use Smart 
>> Navigation in Firefox, but not in Internet Explorer.
>> 
>> You can also temporarily toggle Smart Navigation on or off using the
>> INSERT+X command. For instance, if you have configured Smart 
>> INSERT+Navigation to
>> be enabled
>> by default and you encounter a web page where you would prefer not to 
>> use it, you can press INSERT+X to turn it off and use the more 
>> traditional navigation.
>> JAWS will switch back to Smart Navigation when focus moves away from 
>> the browser or you navigate to a different web site. This command is 
>> also useful if you do not want to use the Say Character, Say Word, or 
>> Say Line commands twice quickly to switch to standard navigation. It 
>> offers the additional benefit of not automatically switching back to 
>> Smart Navigation when you move to a different control with the UP or 
>> DOWN ARROW keys. You can just press
>> INSERT+X
>> again to toggle back to Smart Navigation when you are ready.
>> 
>> Note: When using this command to toggle Smart Navigation under 
>> certain circumstances such as inside a table, focus will not always 
>> remain at the location of the toggle. This is because the virtual 
>> document is reformatted as JAWS goes in and out of Screen Layout.
>> 
>> Anytime you are using Smart Navigation, JAWS will work in Screen Layout.
>> This presents pages in the virtual buffer similar to how they appear 
>> visually on the screen. Toolbar buttons or other lists of controls 
>> that are visually laid out horizontally on the screen are displayed 
>> on one line in the virtual document, allowing a single press of the 
>> DOWN ARROW to skip the entire toolbar instead of having to move from 
>> button to button to get past it.
>> 
>> For a great example, please try JAWS 17 on a web form such as the 
>> WebTrack sample form  on the Surf's Up pages. On this page, you will 
>> be able to see the power of navigating more efficiently with the DOWN 
>> ARROW then in previous versions.
>> 
>> 
>> Smart Navigation offers two modes, Controls and Tables, or Controls.
>> Controls and Tables offers the most complete experience with Smart 
>> Navigation and is the mode that is enabled when using the INSERT+X
toggle.
>> 
>> When set to Controls and Tables and you are currently not in a table, 
>> most web-based controls, including, but not limited to, buttons, 
>> links, edit fields, list boxes, tree views, and headings, are treated 
>> as single units when navigating by character or word. Performing a 
>> Say Character, Say Word, and Say Line command twice quickly while 
>> focused on a control will switch to character and word Navigation so 
>> you can use the traditional navigation by character, word, line, 
>> sentence, and paragraph to review a control, such as the text of a 
>> button or link, in greater detail. Smart Navigation by controls 
>> automatically resumes when you move to another control using TAB or UP or
DOWN ARROW.
>> 
>> If focused inside of a table, the RIGHT and LEFT ARROW keys move 
>> between columns while the UP and DOWN ARROW keys move between rows. 
>> If you press RIGHT ARROW to move from the last column in the current 
>> row to the first column of
>> 
>> the next row, an ascending sound is heard. If you press LEFT ARROW to 
>> move from the first column in the current row to the last column in 
>> the prior row, a descending sound is heard. JAWS also announces the 
>> number of the row that was moved to.
>> 
>> When focused in a cell and it contains any controls, such as a 
>> heading, or an edit field, pressing the Say Character, Say Word, or 
>> Say Line commands twice quickly will switch to control navigation, 
>> and performing these commands again twice quickly will switch to 
>> character and
> word navigation.
>> If the cell does not contain controls, you can only switch to 
>> character and word navigation. Moving focus away from the current 
>> table cell using LEFT or RIGHT ARROW will switch back to the prior 
>> navigation level, for example, pressing RIGHT ARROW while in 
>> character and word navigation will return to Smart Navigation in 
>> tables as soon as you move to a different cell. When you are in 
>> control navigation, or character and word navigation, pressing UP or 
>> DOWN ARROW will move to and read the entire row. Pressing UP or DOWN 
>> ARROW from the beginning or end of the table will also resume Smart 
>> Navigation by
> Controls and Tables.
>> 
>> For an example of using Smart Navigation in tables, visit the Tables 
>> with JAWS and MAGic  page on the Surf's Up pages.
>> 
>> When set to Controls and focus is not in a table, navigation is the 
>> same as the Controls and Tables option. The only difference is that 
>> if you encounter a table, you will need to use the standard table 
>> reading commands (CTRL+ALT+ARROW keys) or the Table layer 
>> (INSERT+SPACEBAR, t) to navigate the table.
>> 
>> 
>> When Smart navigation is active, press ALT+DELETE or INSERT+TAB to 
>> have JAWS
>> 
>> announce the current Smart Navigation level.
>> 
>> New Sound Indication for Links
>> 
>> As you navigate by line with Smart Navigation active, JAWS plays a 
>> sound if the current line contains one or more links which would 
>> generally be displayed on separate lines when you are not in Smart 
>> Navigation. This sound helps you
>> 
>> identify that a link exists and gives you a chance to pause to hear 
>> about it or use TAB or the ARROW keys to move to it. To keep this 
>> sound from being
>> 
>> too intrusive, it is not heard if a line contains a link that is 
>> preceeded by less than five characters. For instance, a bulleted or 
>> numbered list that
>> 
>> contains a link directly after the number or bullet.
>> 
>> Use Settings Center to Configure Settings for a Specific Web Site
>> 
>> In JAWS 17, you can now apply settings changes to a specific web site 
>> domain
>> 
>> using Settings Center. For instance, if you use Smart Navigation and 
>> you have a particular web site where you would prefer not to have 
>> this feature active, you can open Settings Center from the current 
>> site and
> turn it off.
>> Smart
>> Navigation will continue working on all other web sites.
>> 
>> To configure web site specific settings, do the following:
>> 
>> list of 6 items
>> 1. Open the web site where you want settings changes to apply.
>> 2. Press INSERT+F2, select Settings Center, and press ENTER.
>> 3. Press CTRL+SHIFT+W to open the settings file associated with the 
>> currently active web site. Alternatively, press SHIFT+TAB to move to 
>> the application list, press CTRL+HOME to move to the top of the list, 
>> and then press DOWN ARROW one time to move to the settings file for 
>> the
> current site.
>> For example, if you open Settings Center from the Freedom Scientific 
>> web site, you should
>> 
>> see something like www.freedomscientific.com (Domain).
>> 4. From the Search edit box, type all or part of the setting you want 
>> to change. For example, "smart" for Smart Navigation, "Forms" for 
>> Forms Mode options, etc.
>> 5. Press DOWN ARROW to move to the filtered results of the Settings 
>> Center tree view and make your preferred settings changes.
>> 6. Press TAB to move to the OK button and activate it with the 
>> SPACEBAR. The
>> 
>> changes are made and saved. Settings Center closes.
>> list end
>> 
>> Now, whatever you have set for the current web site should only be 
>> applied when any pages on this site are open and have focus. For

>> Freedom Scientific web site,
>> 
>> it should be off for all other web sites which is the default, unless

>> 
>> The Startup Wizard contains a series of pages that allow users to

>> including speech settings, startup options, keyboard settings, 
>> verbosity options, and braille settings.
>> 
>> The Startup Wizard automatically launches after a full install of

>> JAWS 17, we have added a few more options we expect users will want 
>> convenient
> access to.
>> 
>> list of 2 items
>> . The page which follows the Run JAWS Settings page is now called 
>> Common Options. It contains new controls to configure Smart 
>> Navigation and Forms Mode.
>> . A new Braille Translation Settings page has been added directly 
>> after the Verbosity Settings page and before the Braille Settings 
>> page. It contains the following new options:
>> 
>> list of 3 items nesting level 1
>> . Language: Use this combo box to specify the Braille language. For 
>> example,
>> 
>> English, Spanish, French, German, and so on.
>> . Output: Use this combo box to configure the output mode for reading 
>> Braille on your display. The first option is always Computer Braille.
>> The other available options depend on the currently selected language. 
>> For example, when the language is set to English United States, the 
>> available output modes are U.S.
>> English Grade 1, U.S. English Grade 2, Unified English Braille Grade 
>> 1, and Unified English Braille Grade 2. If you set the language to 
>> French, the available modes are French Grade 1 and French Grade 2.
>> . Input Use this combo box to specify the input mode used when typing 
>> Braille from the Perkins-style keyboard on your display. The first 
>> option is
>> 
>> always
>> Computer Braille. The other available option depends on the currently 
>> selected output mode. For instance, if you have chosen to display 
>> Unified English Braille Grade 2, then you can choose to type in 
>> either Computer Braille or Unified English Braille Grade 2. This 
>> setting is not available if the selected output mode is Computer 
>> Braille, or the selected output mode does not support input.
>> list end nesting level 1
>> list end
>> 
>> Create domain specific scripts for Web Pages and Web Applications
>> 
>> JAWS has always provided the ability to script desktop applications, 
>> enabling many non-standard applications to be made accessible to JAWS
> users.
>> 
>> In recent
>> years, however, more and more applications are being developed to run 
>> inside
>> 
>> web browsers. For example, Microsoft SharePoint and Google Docs are 
>> web applications that allow you to create, edit, and save documents, 
>> as well as collaborate with other users, directly through web pages 
>> opened in Internet Explorer or Firefox.
>> 
>> Since each web application can offer its own unique functionality, 
>> the JAWS scripts for the web browser are too general to be of use for 
>> specific
> pages.
>> JAWS 17 extends the scripting functionality to enable you to create 
>> scripts that only load when a particular web site is being accessed, 
>> so you can customize a web page or application to your specific needs.
>> For instance, if you created scripts for www.microsoft.com, these 
>> scripts would be loaded for any
>> 
>> page
>> opened on the Microsoft web site. Domain specific scripts are loaded 
>> on top of the browser scripts so that JAWS can fall back to the 
>> general scripts in situations where a domain specific script behavior 
>> is not available. This gives scripters much more control when 
>> scripting a web-based application for a client at a job site as they 
>> can create specific functionality for the application without 
>> affecting
> how JAWS performs on other web pages.
>> 
>> To aid in creating domain specific scripts, three new script 
>> functions have been added.
>> 
>> list of 3 items
>> . GetDocumentXML: This function obtains well-formed XML from the Dom 
>> Server for parsing using the MSXML com object.
>> . PerformActionOnElementWithTagAndAttribute: This function finds an 
>> element in the DOM by tag and attribute/value pair and performs an 
>> action on it such as setFocus, makeVisible, doDefaultAction, 
>> leftClick, or
> rightClick.
>> . PerformActionOnElementWithID: This function finds an element in the 
>> DOM by
>> 
>> unique ID and performs an action on it such as setFocus, makeVisible, 
>> doDefaultAction, leftClick or rightClick.
>> list end
>> 
>> Using these functions, you could write scripts to do things like find 
>> and speak a particular heading, add  the numbers in the last row of a 
>> table and speak the total, and much more, all without moving the 
>> Virtual
> Cursor.
>> 
>> To demonstrate domain-specific scripting, we have included sample 
>> SharePoint
>> 
>> scripts that allow you to access web-based toolbars on a SharePoint 
>> domain using the INSERT+CTRL+F8 keystroke. To enable these sample 
>> scripts, do the
>> following:
>> 
>> list of 2 items
>> 1. Create a confignames.ini file in your JAWS user settings folder 
>> located at C:\Users\Your User Name\AppData\Roaming\Freedom 
>> Scientific\JAWS\17.0\Settings\enu.
>> 2.  Add the following lines.
>>  [Domains]
>>  fsservices-my.sharepoint.com=SharePointWeb
>> list end
>> 
>> If the scripts are not working, meaning that toolbars cannot be 
>> activated with the INSERT+CTRL+F8 keystroke, check the address of the
> current domain.
>> If
>> necessary, add another line to your confignames.ini to enable that 
>> domain to
>> 
>> be recognized so that the sharePoint sample scripts load.
>> 
>> Liblouis Braille Translator now included for English
>> 
>> JAWS 17 has switched to the popular and widely accepted open-source 
>> Liblouis
>> 
>> braille translator. This new translation now offers both contracted 
>> and uncontracted Unified English Braille (UEB) and the more 
>> traditional Contracted English Braille (CEB) when reading and writing.
>> Starting in 2016, UEB will become the standard in the United States. 
>> Switching now to Liblouis will ensure JAWS offers the latest 
>> standards for
> UEB translation.
>> 
>> New in JAWS Touch Screen Support
>> 
>> Since JAWS 15, users have had the ability to interact with the touch 
>> screens
>> 
>> found on various devices like the Dell Venue series of Windows tablets.
>> Using
>> one and multi-finger gestures such as taps, flicks, and swipes, users 
>> navigate to and activate controls, read text, and perform other 
>> common JAWS functions.
>> In JAWS 17, we have continued to enhance touch screen support by 
>> providing access to the Windows touch keyboard as well as adding the 
>> ability to edit and select text in documents, messages, or web pages 
>> right from the touch screen.
>> 
>> Support for the Windows Touch Keyboard
>> 
>>  JAWS 17 offers full support for the Windows touch keyboard, enabling 
>> you to
>> 
>> write documents, email messages, and fill out forms on the Internet right
>> on your                 device's touch screen if you do not have access
to
> a
>> 
>> physical keyboard. While a regular keyboard is still recommended for
> writing
>> lengthy documents or                 performing complex editing tasks,
> using
>> 
>> the Touch keyboard is convenient for writing a quick note, composing 
>> or replying to an email, or filling out a form on a web site.
>> 
>>  To activate the Touch Keyboard, double tap the Start Touch Keyboard 
>> button on the Desktop, or perform the new JAWS gesture, four-finger 
>> swipe down then up. JAWS announces "opened Touch Keyboard" and plays 
>> an
> ascending sound.
>> Once enabled,                 the keyboard is positioned in the bottom
> part
>> of
>> the screen and each key is represented by a button. Use flick gestures to
>> move to each key, or drag your                 finger around the screen
to
>> explore
>> and locate keys. While exploring, JAWS plays a unique set of sounds 
>> to alert
>> 
>> you when you enter or leave the area of                 the screen
>> containing
>> the touch keyboard. Once you become familiar with the touch keyboard 
>> layout,
>> 
>> you can tap at the location of each key. To close the touch keyboard, 
>> perform another four-finger swipe down then up. JAWS announces 
>> "closed touch keyboard" and plays a descending sound.
>> 
>> JAWS offers two different modes for typing characters:
>> 
>> list of 2 items
>> .  Standard Typing: A key is typed when a double tap or split tap is 
>> performed on the screen after exploring to any of the keyboard 
>> buttons. If alternative
>>                     characters are available for the current keyboard 
>> button, a triple tap will open a panel of alternative keys related to 
>> the selected
>> key. Performing a                     triple tap on any keyboard button
in
>> the alternative characters panel will close the panel. Standard 
>> Typing is the default mode.
>> .  Touch Typing: A key is typed when the finger is lifted from any of 
>> the keyboard buttons, or a split tap is performed on the selected 
>> keyboard button.
>>                     If alternative characters are available for the 
>> current keyboard button, a split double tap will open a panel of 
>> alternative keys related
>> to the selected                     key. Performing a split double tap on
>> any keyboard button in the alternative characters panel will close 
>> the panel.
>> 
>> list end
>> 
>> Use the new Touch Keyboard settings group located in the main 
>> Keyboard group
>> 
>> in Settings center to change the typing mode as well as choose 
>> whether JAWS announces characters, words, both characters and words, 
>> or is silent as you type using the touch keyboard. You can also 
>> change how you are notified when the touch keyboard or the panel of 
>> alternate
> characters opens and closes.
>> 
>> Note: Changing the feedback for the touch keyboard is separate from 
>> the feedback for the physical keyboard. This means you can have JAWS 
>> say nothing
>> 
>> when
>> using a regular keyboard, but continue to announce both characters 
>> and words
>> 
>> when using the touch keyboard.
>> 
>> Text Selection and Other Improvements in Text Reading Mode
>> 
>>  Text reading is one of the three gesture modes that can be activated 
>> by rotating two fingers on the screen. JAWS 17 will now also 
>> automatically switch to Text Reading if you double tap on an element 
>> that
> supports cursor
>> navigation such as an article in the News                 app, or the
text
>> area of
>> an editing application like Microsoft Word. When Text Reading is 
>> activated using a double tap on a text element, for instance, the 
>> second paragraph of a document, JAWS attempts to position the cursor 
>> at the location of the double tap.
>> 
>> When Text Reading is active, flicking left or right moves by 
>> character, flicking left or right with two fingers moves by word, 
>> flicking up or down moves by line, flicking up or down with two 
>> fingers moves by paragraph, flicking left or right with three fingers 
>> moves to the beginning or end of a line, and flicking up or down with 
>> three fingers moves to the top or bottom of the text area. In 
>> addition, you can now flick up or down with four fingers to move by 
>> page, similar to using PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN. These gestures also 
>> move the cursor, enabling you to navigate to the location in a 
>> document where you want to insert text or begin selecting text. For 
>> example, you could flick up
>> 
>> with two fingers to move to the prior paragraph, flick left or right 
>> to position the focus on a blank line, and then begin typing to 
>> insert text at that location.
>> 
>> Performing a triple tap on the screen with one finger will now toggle 
>> text selection on or off. When enabled, using any of the above text 
>> reading gestures will select the specific unit as well as move to it.
>> For example, to move to
>> 
>> and select the next line, perform a triple tap and then flick down. 
>> Text will continue to be selected as you navigate until you perform a 
>> triple tap again
>> 
>> to turn it off. To read currently selected text, you can now perform 
>> a two-finger triple tap.
>> 
>> Other Touch Screen Improvements
>> 
>> Dragging a finger around the screen to explore and hear each element 
>> now works in Text Reading mode in addition to Touch Navigation mode.
>> If Text Reading is currently active and you explore to an item that 
>> does not support this mode, JAWS will automatically switch back to 
>> Touch Navigation. As you explore, you can now have JAWS announce the 
>> character or word at the current location
>> 
>> by performing a split tap or split double tap.
>> 
>> If you encounter an element that does not support standard cursor 
>> navigation, such as a button, or an item in a list, performing a 
>> three-finger swipe down then up now opens a Virtual Viewer window 
>> containing the name of the element. You can then use the navigation 
>> gestures described above to review this information.
>> This is useful if you want to review a control in greater detail that 
>> you did not quite understand when it was announced by JAWS during 
>> exploration or when tapping it. When this mode is active, you will 
>> not be able to navigate to other items on the screen. If you explore 
>> outside of the Virtual Viewer, JAWS plays a sound to indicate you are 
>> no longer in the window. Performing the three-finger swipe down then 
>> up gesture again will close the Virtual Viewer.
>> 
>> Tablet Orientation Notification
>> 
>> JAWS now indicates in both speech and braille when the screen 
>> orientation changes between portrait and landscape. When changing to 
>> landscape, JAWS says "landscape, with home button to the left" or 
>> "landscape, with home button to
>> 
>> the right", depending on the position of the tablet. When changing to 
>> portrait, JAWS says "portrait" or "portrait flipped."
>> 
>> Explore Scripts
>> 
>> A new Explore Scripts shortcut has been added to the Utilities folder 
>> in Windows 8 and later and the Explore JAWS submenu located under the 
>> JAWS program group in Windows 7 and earlier. Selecting this shortcut 
>> opens the folder where the shared script files are stored.
>> 
>> Script Compatibility Mode
>> 
>> By default, scripts compiled using the Script Manager or the 
>> scompile.exe command line tool in JAWS 17 will not work with prior 
>> versions of JAWS. This is due to changes in JAWS 17 to improve the 
>> localization process. In order to compile scripts that will work in 
>> JAWS 17 as well as prior versions, select the new Compatibility Mode
