[JAWS-Users] JAWS 13 Public Beta 2 has been released
All, Below is the list of changes that have occurred as a result of feedback over the past few weeks. If you have JAWS 13 public beta 1 installed, the next time you restart JAWS 13, it should alert you that the update is now available. Work is continuing and we expect the next update for you within 3 weeks. Regards, Eric Damery Enhancements in JAWS 13.0.171 (September 26, 2011) The following is a list of improvements made between JAWS 13.0.97, public beta 1, and 13.0.171, public beta 2. Note that while many customer reported enhancements are included in this release, the following is a list of more notable changes. JAWS * Added three new keystrokes to the Table layer (INSERT+SPACEBAR, T). They are ALT+COMMA to read the current cell, WINDOWS KEY+COMMA to read the current row, and WINDOWS KEY+PERIOD to read the current column. * JAWS now announces links in the Results Viewer when navigating using TAB or SHIFT+TAB. * Resolved an issue with the Amazon Product Search ResearchIt lookup source not returning any results. * Addressed an issue of no speech on the Windows logon screen if a Handy Tech braille display was connected. * You can now press H in addition to QUESTION MARK from within a layer to get help on layered keystrokes. For example, INSERT+SPACEBAR, O, H will list the keystrokes in the OCR layer. This addresses issues encountered using QUESTION MARK on non-English keyboards. * Updated the JAWS help with new topics for the Convenient OCR feature. * Resolved an issue in Settings Center where the search was being cleared after pressing CTRL+SHIFT+D to open Default. * Addressed a reported issue where JAWS would speak dollar amounts, such as $27.19, as a combination of pairs and single digits even with Number Processing set to Single Digits. * Added access keys for the OK and Cancel buttons in all JAWS place marker dialog boxes. * When pressing UP or DOWN ARROW on the Display Placemarkers For group of radio buttons, addressed an issue where focus would move to the next or previous control instead of remaining on the selected option. * Resolved an issue using JAWS with the Event Viewer in Windows XP. * Resolved an issue selecting text using the SHIFT+CURSOR ROUTER buttons on Focus braille displays. * Improved skim reading a document when using the Attributes and Color Rules Apply for Reading option. * Resolved an issue in Settings Center where the location in the tree view was lost when switching to another application then back to Settings Center. * The custom placemarker summary is now displayed in the Results Viewer as expected. * Resolved an issue in the Modify Voice Alias dialog box where JAWS was not speaking the names of the Pitch and Rate slider controls when modifying the OCR Voice alias. * Addressed a reported issue selecting the laptop keyboard layout using the Startup Wizard. Quick Settings * In Windows 7, after you press the APPLICATIONS key on an item in the tree view to open the context menu to change the persistence level, resolved an issue where the braille display would only show the first item in the menu even though JAWS would speak the other options as you navigate. In addition, the check mark indicating the current persistence level for an option is now shown in braille. * Updated the INSERT+F1 help messages for the Search edit field and the tree view to provide more information specific to Quick Settings. * Toggling the Select and Copy option, located under the Virtual Cursor options, now works as expected when set to Virtual Cursor or Using On Screen Highlight. * Added context help for the Last Changed Settings tree view item. * Addressed an issue where changing the punctuation setting for an application in Quick Settings would not work. JAWS would continue using the default punctuation selected in the Startup Wizard. Convenient OCR * Resolved an issue reading text with the Invisible Cursor after performing OCR in a PDF document. * Resolved an issue with Convenient OCR not recognizing the last line of a screen from a DVD movie. * Resolved an issue where JAWS would close when attempting to perform OCR and a Handy Tech braille display was connected. * Resolved an issue where JAWS would not close properly if you attempted to close it while OCR is in progress. Adobe Acrobat * Addressed an issue that could occur when launching JAWS in Adobe Reader 10 while MAGic is currently running. IBM Lotus Notes * Resolved a reported issue with selecting and copying text where the prior line was being copied to the clipboard instead of the currently selected text. Microsoft Access * Addressed an issue navigating in data tables in Access 2007 and 2010.

Hi Eric; This is the message I received when attempting to update via the automatic update option; JAWS Setup Package Error graphic 132 The JAWS setup package could not install the required component JAWSPatch. The process will now exit. OK This is why I prefer to download / save from the website. Would you please post the download link from the Freedom Scientific website?

Mike, It is on the web site but it could be helpful if you would call support and have them get your logs from the update attempt so we can figure out what is different on your machine causing that update to fail. Please explain to them when you call in, that you had tried to update and got the failure message. And that I asked you to call them and get your update logs sent in.

Hi Chris; I'm not trying to be a smart ass but, I know it's not very hard to go to Freedom Scientific's website, for those who know how to navigate it but, there are people who belong to this list that may not have the Jaws navigation skills that others have.
