Re: [JAWS-Users] google chrome guide
Hi all! The new window just opens your website in another window. The incognito window, means that you are in a private browsing window. It is the same as private browsing. Chrome just gives it another name. Have a great one!

Here is my tutorial on using the Chrome browser pasted right below this line. Tutorial for Using the Google Chrome Browser By David Moore This tutorial will be done with the latest update of Chrome. I will also use JAWS 18 and NVDA 2017.2for this tutorial, because they both work the same in Chrome. Finally, I will use Windows 10 Creators Update latest public build. I will assume that you have downloaded and installed Chrome. There should be a shortcut on your desktop. Section One: Launching Chrome: One way to Launch Chrome, is to press the Windows key or CTRL+Escape and type Chrome in the search edit field, and press enter when you hear JAWS say Chrome. However, since you have already downloaded Chrome, You will have a shortcut icon on your desktop. So next, find the shortcut for Chrome on your desktop, and press enter to open Chrome. The short cut will actually say Google Chrome, so press G to find the Google Chrome icon on your desktop. The first very important step, is to press Windows+up arrow to maximise the window. Chrome often opens with the window not maximise, and you will get undesirable results. Section Two: Bringing up a web site. Press CTRL+L or Alt+D and type the following: www.freedomscientific.com The Freedom Scientific web site comes up very quickly. All navigation commands like: H for heading, E for edit field, C for combo box, and so on all work just the same in Chrome. Section Three: The Virticle Chrome menu: I will press the Alt key. The Chrome menu is open. This is a very large virticle menu that you just keep pressing up and down arrow through. I will press insert+up arrow to hear the first option in this menu. New Tab, CTRL+T. You can press that command right from the web site you are on. New Window, CTRL+N You can press these commands right from your web page, instead of coming here. New incognito Window. History sub menu. I will press right arrow here to see what is in this sub menu! History, CTRL+H So, there is a key command for reading your history. You can read a few sites you were on right here. I will press left arrow to close this history sub menu. Downloads, CTRL+J There is the command for opening your downloads you have downloaded with Chrome. Next, the important Bookmarks sub menu. I will press right arrow, to open this. I hear, bookmark this page, CTRL+D That command will bookmark the page you are reading. Next down arrow, says show bookmarks bar, CTRL+Shift+B That command, will show your bookmarks on your Chrome browser for all to see. I do not want that. Here is the important one. manage bookmarks The command is, CTRL+Shift+O In here, you can organize your bookmarks into folders, see the bookmarks you have imported from different browsers, and very importantly, you can download, to your computer, an HTML file of all of your bookmarks in Chrome. On your computer, you can press enter on this file, after it downloads, and a page will show up in Chrome with a list of all bookmarks you have saved in Chrome. This is an awesome way to download all of your bookmarks right to your computer, so you can back them up. That is all for manage bookmarks. Next, I hear import bookmarks and settings. press enter on this, and you can import all bookmarks and settings from IE, and Firefox, right into Google Chrome, and they will be in their corresponding folders. Now, I hear all of my saved bookmarks as I continue to arrow down. Very important! Sometimes, when I open that bookmarks sub menu, I do not land on the choices I mension here, but instead, I start hearing my saved bookmarks. If this happens, I press up arrow a few times, and it gets me to these choices. Keep in mind, that many of these choices, like bookmark manager, have key commands, so you do not have to come to this bookmarks sub menu at all. You only need to come here most of the time, to arrow through your saved bookmarks, and enter on the desired one. To save a web site as a bookmark, Just press CTRL+D and press enter, and your bookmark is saved. I will now press left arrow, to close the Bookmarks sub menu! I will continue to down arrow through this virticle Chrome menu that we entered by just pressing alt. The next few are very self explanatory. The next one I will mension, is the more tools submenu. I will press right arrow on this. I

Re: [JAWS-Users] google chrome guide
. Under this, you can type in the URL of the web site that you want to open when you start Chrome. Under this, there is a link where you can add more pages you want to show when Chrome starts up. Now, we are up to the search engin heading. This is a heading. There are headings on this settings page. I chose to use Google search engin in the address bar. This is a combo box. The next heading, is on start up. Finally, here is where you set up your home page. There are three radio buttons here. I chose the third one, to open a selected page or selected pages. Next, I was able to enter: www.Google.Com. That is my home page that will open each time I start Chrome. Next important group of settings, the advanced settings. Now, you have to press enter on the advanced settings button before more headings of settings will show. The Advanced settings are collapsed, so you have to press enter to show more headings of settings. Now that these advanced settings are open, we get to the next heading of settings. There is much more we can customize under the advanced settings. Privacy and security heading: Down arrow from here, and you hear: Use a web service to resolve navigation errors. You have a clickable, and a toggle. Press spacebar to toggle this on or off. Again, ignore the clickables. Now you have: Use a prodiction service to enable you in searches. I left this unchecked. Next, you have a setting to speed up the loading of web pages: I checked this with spacebar. The next three settings I just left alone. I checked the one that says: Use a web service to help with spelling. I leave manage certificates alone. Next, you have content settings, but this is not a new heading. We are still working with the same heading. The only thing of interest here, is the clear history button. This was available in the virtical menu, so don't worry about this. Now, we get to the next heading of settings. Passwords and forms: Under this heading, just make sure that you check to be able to have Chrome save passwords. Languages Heading: I did nothing with this. Downloads heading: This is where you choose where you want your downloads to be saved on your computer. Printing heading: I did nothing with this. Accessibility heading: I did nothing with this. Now, we have the System heading: Down arrow, and you hear: Continue running background apps, when Google Chrome is Closed. I have this unchecked. Next, Use hard ware excelloration when Available. I have this checked. Next, you hear: Open proxy settings button. I left this alone. Last Heading LOL! Reset. Here, you can reset all settings back to their origional. We are done with Settings. Now, just press CTRL+F4 to get back to the Freedom Scientific Web site. This settings web page, opens in another tab. That is it for settings. Notice, we made a lot of changes under the advanced settings. You cannot see these, unless you press enter to expand these. Now, press the Alt key again. Up arrow once to get to the end of the menu where we were with the settings. You see exit, up arrow and you see the help sub menu, right under the settings choice. I press right arrow on this help sub menu, and you can enter on the help center to get a lot of help using Chrome. To open a web site, just press CTRL+L or Alt+D and type the URL. Chrome for me, is so much quicker with web sites that involve streamming TV and Watching movies, and so on. For me, Chrome opens large news sites very quickly compared to IE. Lastly, All JAWS and NVDA navigation key commands work in Chrome. For example, you can press F7 to open a list of links with JAWS, and the elements list with NVDA. All of that is the exact same. This is the end of the tutorial.
