Hi Michele, you are very welcome. I enjoy doing them when I have the extra

Hi,

This is for all JFW 18 users, if you use build 15031 this is a problem and if I

[JAWS-Users] The insert and escape keys, your best friend, part one updated

2017-02-15 Thread Jim
Hi Jaws users list, I have also updated part one of the insert and escape
keys, your best friend part one. Delete the old one and keep this updated
one. Happy learning! Smiles.

The insert and escape keys, your best friend, part one.

Remember in this lesson, these are not the total list of all of the
keystrokes for these keys, however in this lesson I give most of the
keystrokes.

As we all know, the Insert key is very important to all blind computer
users.

*Let's take a look at the most important keystroke combonations with the
Insert and Capslock keys.

**Insert+1, or Capslock+1, on the number row, turns on keyboard help, this
is a toggle keystroke, press once to turn on and again to turn off.

When keyboard help is on, press any key or keystroke to hear about that key
or keystroke.

When pressing a keystroke combonation like Insert+T, for the title window,
gives a short message about that keystroke.

If you press that keystroke twice quickly, you will hear a longer
discription about that keystroke combonation.

**Insert+F2, or Capslock+F2, opens the run Jaws manager list of 17 items.

For example, you will find dictionary manager, research it, and settings
center and more.

First letter navigation works in the list of Jaws managers.

If you want to see a list of all the Jaws managers, press Insert+F2, or
Caplock+F2, use the arrow keys or first letter navigation to look around,
press enter on any manager to open it, press the escape key to close this
window.

**Insert+F11, or Capslock+F11, opens, the Select a system tray icon list
box.

For example my computer says, Jaws for windows 1 of 5.

After pressing the Insert+F11, or Capslock+F11, after you look at the
current list of icons, you can press the Escape key to close this window.

Or you can press enter on one of the icons, to open a context menu list for
that item.

For example, if I press enter on, PC status protected, opens a context menu
with open, pressing enter on open, will open Windows defender.

**Insert+F10, or Capslock+F10, Opens the Windows list dialog, this is the
active list of running applications on your PC.

Press the Escape key, to close this window.

**Insert+F12, or Capslock+F12, Jaws will tell you the current Time, if
pressed twice quickly tells you the current Date.

**Insert+F1, or Capslock+F1, opens Screen Sensitive Help.

Pressing the escape key, will close this window.

If you press and hold INSERT or Capslock, then press F1 twice quickly, this
will Open the JAWS Help for specific applications window.

For example, if you press and hold INSERT or Capslock, then press F1 twice
quickly, why you are in outlook.

You will hear, popular applications, contents page, treeview, topic outlook.

If you press enter followed by the f6 key, you will open the Jaws HTML help
file system to the outlook topic.

The following is what the page will look like.

Outlook

Microsoft OutlookT is an e-mail and information manager.

Outlook makes it simple to keep e-mails, contacts, calendar items, tasks,
and notes organized in one location.

Outlook works with other Microsoft Office applications to help you access
and integrate information.

Please visit http://www.microsoft.com for more information on Outlook.

The following are links, to other pages in the Jaws HTML help file system.

JAWS Commands for Outlook

Outlook Getting Started

Customizing an Outlook Message List

Outlook Helpful Hints

Back

List of all Supported Applications

Press ALT+f4, to close the Jaws help system page.

**Insert+F4, or Capslock+F4, opens the unloading Jaws dialog, quit Jaws
dialog, Jaws says, are you sure you want to quit Jaws?

If you pressed this keystroke by mistake, just press the Escape key to close
this window, or press Enter to shut down Jaws.

**Insert+Control+F, or Capslock+Control+F, activates the Jaws find dialog.

Type a word you are searching for, and press Enter.

**Insert+F3, or Capslock+F3, Searches the current screen or virtual document
for the next instance of the item you previously have used the JAWS Find
dialog to locate.

For example, in Internet Explorer, you press just F3 and not Insert+F3 to
jump to the next occurrence of the word.

While in internet explorer, If you press Insert+Control+F, or
Capslock+Control+F, this brings up the Jaws find dialog, type a word, press
Enter.

Now just press the F3 key by itself to see the next occurrence of that word
on the webpage.

If you press Insert+F3, or Capslock+F3, in internet explorer, you will hear,
Virtual HTML features dialog, anchors list, 1 of 19.

You can use the Arrow keys, or use first letter navigation to jump to an
item in this list.

For example: If you press H, for Headings list, and press enter.

If you do it From the top of the MSN.com page, you will hear, MSN 1, 1 of
140.

You can use the Arrow keys, or use first letter navigation to jump to any
heading, press enter, you will be placed on that heading on the page.

The Insert and Escape keys, your best friend part two.

So useing the laptop keyboard layout in Jaws is an advantage, not a
drawback.

Again for this lesson I will call the capslock key the Jaws key and the
numpad insert key, the insert key.

For example: For some Jaws keystrokes you must use the numpad insert key
instead of the capslock key, plus a letter on the keyboard to accomplish a
task.

Example, If you are running Jaws from the system trey, Pressing numpad
Insert+J, Brings up the JAWS options menu window, with the options sub 
Insert+menu
highlighted for you.

Pressing the capslock key, JAWSKey+J, Moves to the prior word and speaks it.

Another example, Pressing the Numpad Insert+H, Places JAWS Hot Keys in the
Virtual Viewer.

You can review them with the Arrow keys, and press the Escape key to close
this window.

Pressing the Caplocks key JAWSKey+H, speaks the current sentence.

So it's very nice to have another Jaws modifier key, to use when pressing
Jaws keystrokes involving the pressing of many keys on the keyboard.

**Now let us look at how to use Jaws layered keystrokes, Insert+Spacebar,
followed by a letter.

This means when you press Insert+Spacebar, you will hear a ding sound, you
then can press a certain letter or key to open one of the many options for
the Jaws layered keystrokes.

For example: Pressing Insert+Spacebar, followed by the ? Question mark, you
will hear:

Search commands press J.

Repeat last background notification from Skype press Shift+R.

Show recent speech history press H.

Clear recent speech history press Shift+H.

View text on clipboard press C.

Select text between marked place and current position press M.

Customize web page with Flexible Web press X.

ResearchIt press R.

OCR Feature Layer press O.

Table Navigation Layer press T.

Switch to your recent Windows Live Messages press Number row 1 through 5.

Text Analyzer press A.

Mute Synthesizer press S.

Lock Keyboard press L.

Toggle audio ducking press D.

So let us look at most of these layered keystrokes one at a time.

**Pressing either the Numpad Insert+Spacebar, or the Capslock Jaws
key+Spacebar, followed by the letter J, opens the search for Jaws 
key+commands
window.

For example, after pressing Insert+Spacebar, followed by J, You are in a
Jaws search for commands edit box, type the word copy, press the tab key,
you are put in a Jaws HTML page of results.

You can use the Arrow keys or H, for heading or Insert+F7, for a Links list,
press the Escape key to close this window.

Below is an example of what comes up, when you type the word copy in to the
Jaws search for commands edit box, and press the Tab key, I have shortened
the results.

*Copy Selected Text To Clipboard. Control + C

Standard Windows copy command, usually found in the Edit menu, any selected
text or items will be copied to the Windows Clipboard. The selected items or
text can then be pasted into another window or application.

*View Clipboard Text. Insert + Space, C

The Clipboard Text Viewer displays all text that has been copied to the
Windows Clipboard using the standard Windows Copy and Cut commands.

*Virtualize Window. Alt + Insert + W

This keystroke displays the text in the current window in the Virtual
Viewer. You can then select the text and copy and paste it to another
application, such as an e-mail message. This is especially useful in error
dialog boxes.

*Select Text Between Marked Place And Current Position. Insert + Space, M

This command selects text between the temporary Placemarker and current
virtual cursor location. You may then use Control+c to copy the selected
text to the clipboard.

*For example: on a website, press Control+Windows+k, to set a temporary
Placemarker at the beginning of the text to be copied.

At the end of the text to be copied, press Insert+Spacebar, followed by M,
all the text in-between has been selected, press Control+C to copy all the
text.

*Append Selected Text To Clipboard. Insert + Windows + C

With the Freedom clipboard, text will be appended to the clipboard, adding
it to the clipboard at the end of the previous clipboard content. Using a
Copy To Clipboard command

Hi

As you pointed out, when using the laptop keyboard in JAWS,  the JAWS
functions using the insert key still do the same things.  But, as you
pointed out, there are situations where pressing the capsLock key and a
letter do not do the same thing as the insert+same letter key.  You can use
insert key to perform the desired function, but on some laptops I've seen,
Pressing insert+h or j with one hand can be very difficult.  But
fortunately, the two examples you mentioned can be accomplished in the
laptop keyboard layout by pressing control+shift+kapslock+h or j.

For example, after pressing Insert+Spacebar, followed by J, You are in a

you are put in a Jaws HTML page of results.

*Copy Selected Text To Clipboard. Control + C

Standard Windows copy command, usually found in the Edit menu, any selected

*View Clipboard Text. Insert + Space, C

The Clipboard Text Viewer displays all text that has been copied to the
Windows Clipboard using the standard Windows Copy and Cut commands.

*Virtualize Window. Alt + Insert + W

This keystroke displays the text in the current window in the Virtual

Re: [JAWS-Users] The insert and escape keys, your best friend part two

2017-02-15 Thread Mike O'Brien
Hi

As you pointed out, when using the laptop keyboard in JAWS,  the JAWS
functions using the insert key still do the same things.  But, as you
pointed out, there are situations where pressing the capsLock key and a
letter do not do the same thing as the insert+same letter key.  You can use
insert key to perform the desired function, but on some laptops I've seen,
Pressing insert+h or j with one hand can be very difficult.  But
fortunately, the two examples you mentioned can be accomplished in the
laptop keyboard layout by pressing control+shift+kapslock+h or j.

The Insert and Escape keys, your best friend part two.

So useing the laptop keyboard layout in Jaws is an advantage, not a
drawback.

Again for this lesson I will call the capslock key the Jaws key and the
numpad insert key, the insert key.

For example: For some Jaws keystrokes you must use the numpad insert key
instead of the capslock key, plus a letter on the keyboard to accomplish a
task.

Example, If you are running Jaws from the system trey, Pressing numpad
Insert+J, Brings up the JAWS options menu window, with the options sub 
Insert+menu
highlighted for you.

Pressing the capslock key, JAWSKey+J, Moves to the prior word and speaks it.

Another example, Pressing the Numpad Insert+H, Places JAWS Hot Keys in the
Virtual Viewer.

You can review them with the Arrow keys, and press the Escape key to close
this window.

Pressing the Caplocks key JAWSKey+H, speaks the current sentence.

So it's very nice to have another Jaws modifier key, to use when pressing
Jaws keystrokes involving the pressing of many keys on the keyboard.

**Now let us look at how to use Jaws layered keystrokes, Insert+Spacebar,
followed by a letter.

This means when you press Insert+Spacebar, you will hear a ding sound, you
then can press a certain letter or key to open one of the many options for
the Jaws layered keystrokes.

For example: Pressing Insert+Spacebar, followed by the ? Question mark, you
will hear:

Search commands press J.

Repeat last background notification from Skype press Shift+R.

Show recent speech history press H.

Clear recent speech history press Shift+H.

View text on clipboard press C.

Hi Billy, OK, below is part one of The insert and escape keys, your best
friend, part one.
The insert and escape keys, your best friend, part one.
Remember in this lesson, these are not the total list of all the keystrokes
for these keys, however in this lesson I give most of the keystrokes.
As we all know, the Insert key is very important to all blind computer
users.
*Let's take a look at the most important keystroke combonations with the
Insert key.
**Insert+1, on the number row, turns on keyboard help, this is a toggle
keystroke, press once to turn on and again to turn off.
When keyboard help is on, press any key or keystroke to hear about that key
or keystroke.
When pressing a keystroke combonation like Insert+T, for the title window,
gives a short message about that keystroke.
If you press that keystroke twice quickly, you will hear a longer
discription about that keystroke combonation.
**Insert+F2, opens the run Jaws manager list of 17 items.
For example, you will find dictionary manager, research it, and settings
center and more.
First letter navigation works in the list of Jaws managers.
If you want to see a list of all the Jaws managers, press Insert+F2, use the
arrow keys or first letter navigation to look around, press enter on any
manager to open it, press the escape key to close this window.
**Insert+F11, opens, the Select a system tray icon list box.
For example my computer says, Jaws for windows 1 of 5.
After pressing the Insert+F11, after you look at the current list of icons,
you can press the Escape key to close this window.
Or you can press enter on one of the icons, to open a context menu list for
that item.
For example, if I press enter on, PC status protected, opens a context menu
with open, pressing enter on open, will open Windows defender.
**Insert+F10, Opens the Windows list dialog, this is the active list of
running applications on your PC.
Press the Escape key, to close this window.
**Insert+F12, Jaws will tell you the current Time, if pressed twice quickly
tells you the current Date.
**Insert+F1, opens Screen Sensitive Help.
Pressing the escape key, will close this window.
If you press and hold INSERT, then press F1 twice quickly, this will Open
the JAWS Help for specific applications window.
For example, if you press and hold INSERT, then press F1 twice quickly, why
you are in outlook.
You will hear, popular applications, contents page, treeview, topic outlook.
If you press enter followed by the f6 key, you will open the Jaws HTML help
file system to the outlook topic.
The following is what the page will look like.
Outlook
Microsoft OutlookT is an e-mail and information manager.
Outlook makes it simple to keep e-mails, contacts, calendar items, tasks,
and notes organized in one location.
Outlook works with other Microsoft Office applications to help you access
and integrate information.
Please visit http://www.microsoft.com for more information on Outlook.
The following are links, to other pages in the Jaws HTML help file system.
JAWS Commands for Outlook
Outlook Getting Started
Customizing an Outlook Message List
Outlook Helpful Hints
Back
 List of all Supported Applications
Press ALT+f4, to close the Jaws help system page.
**Insert+F4, opens the unloading Jaws dialog, quit Jaws dialog, Jaws says,
are you sure you want to quit Jaws?
If you pressed this keystroke by mistake, just press the Escape key to close
this window, or press Enter to shut down Jaws.
**Insert+Control+F, activates the Jaws find dialog.
Type a word you are searching for, and press Enter.
**Insert+F3, Searches the current screen or virtual document for the next
instance of the item you previously have used the JAWS Find dialog to
locate.
For example, in Internet Explorer, you press just F3 and not Insert+F3 to
jump to the next occurrence of the word.
While in internet explorer, If you press Insert+Control+F, this brings up
the Jaws find dialog, type a word, press Enter.
Now just press the F3 key by itself to see the next occurrence of that word
on the webpage.
If you press Insert+F3 in internet explorer, you will hear, Virtual HTML
features dialog, anchors list, 1 of 19.
You can use the Arrow keys, or use first letter navigation to jump to an
item in this list.
For example: If you press H, for Headings list, and press enter.
If you do it From the top of the MSN.com page, you will hear, MSN 1, 1 of
140.
You can use the Arrow keys, or use first letter navigation to jump to any
heading, press enter, you will be placed on that heading on the page.
Pressing Insert+Control+F, in a Word document, will open the Jaws find
dialog.
Type the word to search for, press Enter.
Now press Insert+F3, to locate the next occurrence of that word in the
document.
**Insert+Escape, refreshes the current screen or window.
**Insert+Tab, Says the current window and the associated prompt label, I
call this the Jaws repeat key, very useful in the settings area.
**Insert+Q, Says the Currently loaded Script File Name and application

So it's very nice to have another Jaws modifier key, to use when pressing
Jaws keystrokes involving the pressing of many keys on the keyboard.

**Now let us look at how to use Jaws layered keystrokes, Insert+Spacebar,
followed by a letter.

This means when you press Insert+Spacebar, you will hear a ding sound, you
then can press a certain letter or key to open one of the many options for
the Jaws layered keystrokes.

For example: Pressing Insert+Spacebar, followed by the ? Question mark, you
will hear:

Search commands press J.

Repeat last background notification from Skype press Shift+R.

Show recent speech history press H.

Clear recent speech history press Shift+H.

View text on clipboard press C.

Select text between marked place and current position press M.

Customize web page with Flexible Web press X.

ResearchIt press R.

OCR Feature Layer press O.

Table Navigation Layer press T.

Switch to your recent Windows Live Messages press Number row 1 through 5.

Text Analyzer press A.

Mute Synthesizer press S.

Lock Keyboard press L.

Toggle audio ducking press D.

So let us look at most of these layered keystrokes one at a time.

**Pressing either the Numpad Insert+Spacebar, or the Capslock Jaws
key+Spacebar, followed by the letter J, opens the search for Jaws 
key+commands
window.

For example, after pressing Insert+Spacebar, followed by J, You are in a
Jaws search for commands edit box, type the word copy, press the tab key,
you are put in a Jaws HTML page of results.

You can use the Arrow keys or H, for heading or Insert+F7, for a Links list,
press the Escape key to close this window.

Below is an example of what comes up, when you type the word copy in to the
Jaws search for commands edit box, and press the Tab key, I have shortened
the results.

*Copy Selected Text To Clipboard. Control + C

Standard Windows copy command, usually found in the Edit menu, any selected
text or items will be copied to the Windows Clipboard. The selected items or
text can then be pasted into another window or application.

*View Clipboard Text. Insert + Space, C

The Clipboard Text Viewer displays all text that has been copied to the
Windows Clipboard using the standard Windows Copy and Cut commands.

*Virtualize Window. Alt + Insert + W

This keystroke displays the text in the current window in the Virtual
Viewer. You can then select the text and copy and paste it to another
application, such as an e-mail message. This is especially

Hi Michele, you are very welcome. I enjoy doing them when I have the extra
time to write them out. I have many new Jaws users on the W-10 and Jaws
yahoo group. We also have many older members on the group, so I try to keep

Hey you Windows 10 experts,



With Windows 10, When I go into  Settings, Update & security, Windows
Update,Advanced Options, Choose how updates are delivered, I get to a button
with an associated message,

" When this is turned on, your PC may also send parts of previously
downloaded Windows updates and apps to PCs on your local network, or PCs on
the Internet, depending on what's selected below".

It is the "depending on what's selected below".  I can't find the "what's
set below".  How does one see this with JAWS 18?

The other problem is that JAWS doesn't tell me if this is turned on or off.



Any comments?



Thanks,



Reed

Hi Mike,



Let me start out by saying the majority of people who have to type with
one
hand prefer to use the standard keyboard.  They shift their hand from the
traditional "home row" position to the letters F, G, H & I.  They then
just
learn how to type with their 4 fingers from that position.  If the user
has
small hands, there are small keyboards designed for users with smaller
hands, or those who activate the keyboard with some type of pointer stick
(see info below on alternative keyboards).  They also find it helpful to
turn on "Sticky Keys" which eliminates the need to hold down keys like the
Shift, Control and Alt.  This is part of Windows7 Ease of Access Center.
I
am not sure if the Insert key is included in "Sticky Keys", so I'm not
sure
if it will help with executing JAWS commands.  Here is a link to info on
how
to turn on "Sticky Keys":



http://www.nhs.uk/accessibilityhelp/Using-your-keyboard-one-handed-in-Window
s-7.html#content



Dragon Naturally Speaking speech to text software is an option, but if
using
it with JAWS it used to be that you had to use an additional piece of
software call J-Say.  At one time only the Professional version of Dragon
worked with J-Say and JAWS.  J-Say allowed JAWS and Dragon to play nicely
together.  To be honest with you, Dragon is not for everyone.



There used to be a way to access a "half-QWERTTY" keyboard and other
keyboard layouts within Microsoft Windows.  Here is a link to some
information, but there is a chance that it is outdated.

https://www.microsoft.com/enable/products/altkeyboard.aspx



There are a variety of alternative keyboards available.  As far as I know
there should not be any problem using JAWS with any of these keyboards
described below.  Just make sure that there is an Insert key.



There are "half QWERTY" keyboards.  You can read about one option,

Matias Half Keyboard & Half-QWERTY 508 Keyboard

http://www.matias.ca/halfkeyboard/index.php?refID=7



Another one handed keyboard is the BAT keyboard.  Here is some info from
the
web, followed by the URL for more info.

Infogrip's BAT Keyboard is a one-handed, compact input device that
replicates all the functions of a full-size keyboard, but with greater
efficiency and convenience. The BAT is easy to learn and use. Letters,
numbers, commands and macros are simple key combinations, "chords," that
you
can master in no time. Best of all the BAT's unique ergonomic design
reduces
hand strain and fatigue for greater comfort and productivity. The BAT is
the
ultimate typing solution for persons with physical or visual impairments
and
is proven to increase productivity when used with graphic or desktop
publishing software.

http://www.infogrip.com/bat-keyboard.html



These days there are many options for mini keyboards.  I have no idea of
the
quality of one verses the other, but here is 1 of many examples available
from Staples.


AdessoR SlimTouch Mini Keyboard with Smart Card Reader and 2-Port USB Hub,
