Re: [JAWS-Users] Reading Attachments

2018-06-21 Thread George Martinez Sr
I am using Windows 10 and Office 365.
When I receive attachments in an email I open the email then SHIFT + TAB
once to move me up to the first attachment on the left.
Then you can either press ENTER to open the attachment or use your
Applications key to do the same.
If there are more than one attachment after your SHIFT + TAB you can simply
right arrow to the next & the next attachment & repeat the ENTER to read it.

Hi listers

I'm running Win 10 latest build, and Office 365. I can't figure out how to
read email attachments without detaching them. If anyone could enlighten me
I'd appreciate it.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Just For Fun, Emoji

2018-06-21 Thread joseph.lee22590
Hi,
I'll try my best to address several questions about emoji panel in one go:

Q. What is emoji?
Emoji (a shorthand Japanese for "emotion characters", from Romanization of
"emo" and "ji" (character)) is a picture that represents objects, emotions,
people, events and so on. This came about in the late 1990's where people
wanted to conserve space on data usage yet wanted to express their emotions
to the fullest. This became pop0ular among Japanese mobile phone users via
SMS (short messaging service) before it gain widespread usage in 2010's.

Q. How do I read emoji?
It'll depend on screen reader and synthesizer in use. Some synthesizers do
support announcing emojis, while others don't. Also, the ability to
recognize emojis will depend on how the screen reader processes Unicode data
and instructions sent to speech synthesizers regarding how to process such
characters.

Q. How do I input emoji?
In Windows 10 Version 1709 (Fall Creators Update) and later, you can browse
and insert emoji by pressing Windows+period or Windows+semicolon. Note that
in 1709 and 1803 (April 2018 Update), only United States English keyboard
layout will let you browse emojis. In Redstone 5 (under development), this
restriction is gone.
In 1709 and 1803, once emoji panel opens, press the arrow keys to move
through emojis. Press Tab to cycle through emoji categories, or if you're
looking for a specific emoji, type the name and the panel will return
suggestions. To insert a given emoji, press Enter.
In Redstone 5, you can still use arrow keys to move through emojis. However,
pressing Tab will not cycle through categories; rather, it'll switch between
emojis and categories. To select a different emoji category, press Tab to go
the categories, then use left or right arrows to move through categories and
press Enter. In case of People category, you can choose a skin tone. Once
the emoji is found, press Enter.

Q. Does JAWS support emoji panel?
Not at this time (according to tests). Some users asked VFO regarding this
matter not long ago.

Q. Does other screen readers support emoji panel?
Write to me privately regarding this matter please (not only to keep the
topic on scope, but also because I am the one who brought support for emoji
panel for a certain screen reader; hint: there will come a day when a
certain scripts will not be required to interact with emoji panel, but
that's for another time).

Cheers,
Joseph

Re: [JAWS-Users] Just For Fun, Emoji

2018-06-21 Thread Cristóbal
Yes. This new Windows 10 feature still doesn’t' appear to be accessible with 
Jaws. I've also come across some emojis by accident with the alt plus numpad 
sequence when I've meant to type something else. Accented vowel, º, ñ for 
example. ☺ = alt plus #1. ☻ = alt plus #2. ♥ = alt plus #3 and so on. But 
considering that there are tons and tons of emojis and that you can also select 
shade of skin color for the more ethno-centric conscious folks, it's still 
pretty much a no go.
I want to say that Leacy or however you spell it has some sort of emoji 
function if you buy their scripts, but I don't really have a need for leasy 
products and am not jonesing enough to emoji my heart out to pay for that 
specific feature with their script package.
Especially now that it seems to be built in to Windows 10. I would have to 
imagine that it'll soon enough be part of the Jaws core function. This of 
course will probably be touted as some major new Jaws feature eating up one of 
my SMAs instead of addressing long standing bugs though.
You see? A grumpy or angry face emoji would have been perfect at the end of 
that last sentence...

I was reading on another JAWS List and someone had used an emoji, if that's the 
right word.  JAWS described it when I was reading with the down-arrow key but 
not the left and right arrows, so it would seem that there was no colon and 
closed parenthesis to make a smiling face.  Windows 10 can, they say, bring up 
a list of emoji with Windows key and either the period or the semicolon.  But 
if it does, JAWS can't see them, and neither can I!  LOL.  I tried recognizing 
the screen, but got no descriptions.  I googled and found that there is an 
add-on for NVDA that will make these emoji accessible.  Not having NVDA 
installed, I can't check.  It would be fun if JAWS had this since we all send

Presumably, everyone can already do this on their iPhones, but alas, no iPhone

Hey.

Yes, that nVDA feature is, I think, a part of Windows 10 App Essentials. I 
haven't played with it. I do use them on my phone (android, not iphone), but 
always feel it's kind of a silly thing to do. Still, especially when talking 
with my landlady, sometimes a simple emoji is best, as she just wants to go on 
and on and on, and I have to indicate I'm listening, somehow. Lol

It is a little odd that JAWS can recognise them but there's no current way to 
select one to input in your messages and such.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Just For Fun, Emoji

I was reading on another JAWS List and someone had used an emoji, if that's the 
right word.  JAWS described it when I was reading with the down-arrow key but 
not the left and right arrows, so it would seem that there was no colon and 
closed parenthesis to make a smiling face.  Windows 10 can, they say, bring up 
a list of emoji with Windows key and either the period or the semicolon.  But 
if it does, JAWS can't see them, and neither can I!  LOL.  I tried recognizing 
the screen, but got no descriptions.  I googled and found that there is an 
add-on for NVDA that will make these emoji accessible.  Not having NVDA 
installed, I can't check.  It would be fun if JAWS had this since we all send 
stuff to sighted friends.  

Presumably, everyone can already do this on their iPhones, but alas, no iPhone 
yet.  So, again, it would be great if JAWS would let me play!  LOL.

Just sayin'

Re: [JAWS-Users] [jaws] checking facebook messages

2018-06-21 Thread David Moore
Hi!
I use mobile Facebook:
m.facebook.com
and I use IE 11.
It is by far easier to navigate the mobile Facebook site in IE.
Just press R to get to the list of links of profile, messages, notifications, 
and so on.
Just press enter on the messages link.
That is what is so nice with the Mobile Facebook site in IE!
Everything is just web page elements that you can use your H for heading and so 
on.
Let me know if I can be more of help!

Hi Cristóbal,

I'm also experimenting this type of issues, especially on slow machines.
Although stability with Firefox 60 was considerably inproved in the latest

The web site and the mailing list will both most likely be effected. Not to

[JAWS-Users] Issues with Jaws 2018 losing focus in Firefox 60.x

2018-06-21 Thread Cristóbal
Hello list,

I’ve asked this question before, but am really noticing it more and more
these past few days. Using the latest Firefox 60.X and Jaws 2018, Jaws focus
seems to be going blank every few seconds. It doesn’t’ matter if I’m
actively navigating the page or if it’s just passively there. Jaws will just
say blank and maybe speak the title of the page I’m on, but there’s no
feedback if I arrow around or use the navigation keys. I can get focus back
easy enough by maximizing the window or pressing tab/shift plus tab or alt
plus tab out of the window, but for one thing, it’s annoying as all get out
and it’s occurring so much now, it’s becoming quite disruptive. This has
more or less been there for a while now, but either I’m really just getting
tired of having to deal with it and am simply noticing it more or it is as I
feel, picking up more in frequency. 

One thing I have noticed is that when I get a sound alert from an incoming
email from Outlook for example, Jaws will lose its focus. To be clear, this
also happens just randomelly as well, but it’s pretty consistent with this
incoming email alert correlation.

Anyone else dealing with this problem?

I emailed VFO a while back and  got the standard “we’re not experiencing
this. It could be your set up.” Response.

I’m dealing with a similar issue in Outlook 2016, but that’s for another
email.

Anyway, please tell me I’m not the only one fighting with these Jaws focus
issues…

Re: [JAWS-Users] Problem with OCR on a TIF file with multiple pages

2018-06-21 Thread Fernando Gregoire
Hi Debby,

This is certainly something that FS should inprove in a future major or
minnor release.
As a workaround, however, you could save the file as PDF by using a virtual
printer, such as the one included with Foxit Reader (this software is
comparably accessible as Adobe Reader and easier to create basic things) or
the one built into Windows 10, called Microsoft Print to PDF.
In my experience, JAWS has no problem recognizing a PDF file with multiple
pages.

Hope it helps!

Hello Janie,
When the message with the attachment is open, try pressing insert with
a to bring the attachment into view or tabbing to the attachment
itself and pressing shift with f10 or the applications key on it. I am
thinking that this should bring up a context menu where one of the
options will be save.
I have not used Windows live mail myself but this is just a guess that
I hope will help.

Re: [JAWS-Users] formatting Facebook notes

2018-06-21 Thread JM Casey
Hi Fernando.

I do not know, but I swear I was talking about this on a facebook post sometime 
late last year, and a friend replied and told me how it could be done. This was 
not a screen-reader user, but from the way he made it sound, it was something 
that could be easily accomplishable through the keyboard. I can't remember for 
the life of me what was said in that discussion as I never really pursued it. 
I'll have to look back and see if I can find it, or maybe just ask him.

I always thought it was really unfortunate that you couldn't use html tags on 
facebook. Even forums (though in a modified form) and many other sites I 
conribute to (goodreads) allow this.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] formatting Facebook notes

Hi all,

 

A long time ago, it was possible to format text in Facebook notes by using HTML 
tags like , , etc.

Then, in 2014 or so, they introduced a WYSIWYG editor which no longer supported 
HTML tags. Instead, we had to select text, disable JAWS Forms Mode and, below 
the editor and the Post button, there was a list of links with different 
options like Bold, Italic etc. which applied these attributes to the selected 
text.

Now I'm trying to format text on a note, but JAWS is not detecting the links 
with the different formattings. I know these links are present, because when I 
select text it appears, below the Post button, a button saying Close the Popup 
and Return, which is not present when no text is selected.

I've tried both with Firefox, Chrome and Internet Explorer, both with JAWS and 
NVDA, with the same results in all cases.

Does someone know how to format text on a Facebook note right now by using only 
the keyboard?

 

Thanks in advance!

Re: [JAWS-Users] Problem with OCR on a TIF file with multiple pages

2018-06-21 Thread JM Casey
Do you think the budget could stretch to accommodate an OCR package for you?
I don't think it'd have to be anything too fancy or expensive. Abbyy
Finereader would probably do the trick. Then you could import all the .tifs
into the programme and oCR them as if you had scanned them yourself.

I'm afraid I don't have any suggestions for JAWS OCR; my experiences with it
have not exactly been of a satisfactory enough level to recommend it for
professional use. Let's see if anyone suggests anything else.

Howdy Net bat,

I believe it was you that asked how someone can make Jaws report links as,
visited links, rather than Jaws reporting links visited

On our computers Jaws reports, visited links, and as far as I can tell this
is how I set Jaws to do it, so let me shut the hell up and get on with it!
LOL  LOL

Try the following:
1. Open your browser of choice, and open the Settings Center.
2. Arrow down to, Text Processing, and right arrow to open.
3. Down arrow 1 time to, General, & right arrow to open.
4. There are 17 items in here, and you want to down arrow to #14, Say Item
State First, this should be checked.
5. Down arrow 2 times to #16, Say Window State First, and this should be
checked.
Note:  If you tab 1 time on any of these options you will get a description
of it.
6. Tab to, apply, press spacebar, tab to, Okay, press enter to save and
close.
Hope this helps, but let us know if this works for you or not, so we'll know
whether or not to check other settings.

Hi Marie,

There is a bug in JAWS which causes it to not detecting the application you 
actually were in when you opened the JAWS window with INSERT+J.
To make the Select a Voice Profile dialog to detect the application from 
which you opened it, open it by pressing CTRL+JAWS+S from wittin the desired 
application instead of using the JAWS menus.

In the past I could change the voice just for the Word program by going into

wants to change the voice for the Jaws window instead of Word? I am 
confused.
