Re: [JAWS-Users] Skype 8 for desktop answering incoming call?
That's very useful Cristobal, I took it that contrl-shift-p is only to start an audio call from our part, not as an answering shortcut. Using this logic, might contrl-shift-k answer directly in video mode, I wonder. I also want to draw our group's attention to the fact that on this computer, when hitting contrl-shift-k I need to use the bypass key first, jawskey-3 first. Otherwise a window dealing with place markers opens and I am not sure if you can get rid of this.

SO anyway, to answer my own question since it seems no one had the answer. The actual command to answer an incoming call with Skype 8.x desktop is control plus shift plus P. This was listed in the link I provided as the command to start a call. Still though, it seems you have to be in the Skype window to execute any of these commands. Be it answer, hang up, mute, etc. This is a rather needless annoyance since before, the hotkeys were universal no matter where you may have been in the machine. It may seem like a minor thing, but I often work in different virtual desktops with lots of programs and windows open at the same time and having to scramble to get to the right window/desktop and then perform the action when before a simple alt plus pg up or pg down worked fine comes off as a pointless step backwards. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List On Behalf Of Panagiotis Antonopoulos Sent: Tuesday, July 17, 2018 11:27 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Skype 8 for desktop answering incoming call?
