Re: [JAWS-Users] can ribbon menus be removed in windows 10
Hopefully this message has a subject - apologies for the previous two which didn't. One of those days. Hi Joanne, the following is a link to a guide to file explorer in Windows 8.1. It contains a section describing the ribbon in that program, and I don't think there are any changes in the ribbon in File explorer in Windows 10. http://vip.chowo.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/jaws/File-Explorer-8p1-Guide.html David. original message: I hope I won't get in trouble for possibly making this more of a thank you message, and yes those can clutter an in box. But I do want to say that, for example, in the case of ribbons, I appreciated David Bales' suggestions and they worked beautifully. I like that this group presents many approaches to the handling of apps and various work-arounds using Jaws. We're all learning, and for those of us who don't always understand new apps or layouts I appreciate help from those who can present an easier or, to me, familiar way of reaching my goals. I wouldn't mind learning more about ribbons and maybe there's a tutorial to explain them. But they don't make sense to me and I can't picture their layout or how to find their menus. Someone suggested turning the virtual ribbon feature off in Jaws and I know many others use it. I'd be glad to hear an explanation of what exactly they are and how to find the menus you need. I am using older email programs for this very reason--ribbons don't make sense. So if there's a tutorial that explains them thoroughly I would check one out if anyone knows of one. But in the meantime I'm so relieved there are still other ways to avoid them till I learn more. Joanne For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
[JAWS-Users] can ribbon menus be removed in windows 10
Hi Joanne, although you can't disable the ribbons, there are at least a couple of ways of changing the view setting which don't involve using the ribbon. The first is to use shortcuts. Press ctrl+alt+5 for a list view, and press ctrl+alt+6 for a details view. (Note these shortcuts were ctrl+shift+number in windows 8 and 8.1). The second is that with no items selected in the items view (you can press ctrl+spacebar to deselect an item if necessary), you can open a context menu, which contains a view sub menu. David. original message: I am using a friend's Windows 10 machine and I like being able to sort my songs and other lists in a list view. When I hit alt V hoping to see status bar, list, etc., I see lower ribbon and something about panes and I am really upset that I can't get rid of these things and go back to the ability to sort by details or list, etc. Can these ribbons be disabled? I hope? Thanks. For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
Re: [JAWS-Users] can ribbon menus be removed in windows 10
I feel the exact same way. I think ribbons are evil and unnecessary. Why create layers of hidden menus when the menu bar used to show all that could be done, and which was so much more accessible? I will avoid them till I can no longer. Hopefully, by then I will be able to use my voice to get done what I need, if I live that long.
