RE: Windows 10 start menu

2016-01-19 Thread Jim Grimsby JR. via Talk
another useful tool is AutoHotKey.  This will allow you to make short cut keys 
all over the place.  Thus allowing you to start programs quickly.  You can also 
turn your scripts in to executable   files if you should want to.  A good 
reason for this is as follows.  I created a short cut script to run on a 
computer.  I don't need the program on this system.  I just put the .exe file 
on the system told it to run at start up and it was good to go.  
Another nice tool is classic  shell.  It allows you to use the classic start 
menu interface.  This means you don't have to bother with the new start menu if 
you don't want to.  
In windows 8 and 8.1 I had a tool that works to remove the silly ribbon in 
windows explorer and go back to the simple menu system.  Why Microsoft thought 
the ribbon was a good idea I don't know.  How they decided where they were 
going to put things is lost on me.  
Any way hope that helps.  I will not say I know everything there is to know 
either but I will say this is a wonderful operating system.  Yes it is a work 
in progress but I am very happy with it so far and I expect to get better.

Subject: Re: Windows 10 start menu

In Windows 7 or 10, I place a few frequently-used programs on the taskbar. 
This can be done by finding the program by means of a search or locating it 
within the start menu, then using the Applications key, also known as the 
context menu key, to the left of the right-hand control key, or with shift-F10, 
and using the context menu that appears to select "pin to taskbar."
Once a program has been pinned to the taskbar, you can get to the taskbar with 
Windows-T, then use left or right arrow keys to select that program, then the 
Applications key again to start the program from a recently used file or song 
or website. You can also use the taskbar to start a program (with no 
parameters) by pressing the Windows key with a number from 1 to 0, which 
represents the position of the program along the taskbar.
I can't say that I have Windows 10 all figured out, but with tricks like these 
you can get to a lot of functionality very quickly.

Subject: RE: Windows 10 start menu

Hello guys, for those of you who are having a problem grasping the start menu, 
would suggest you place a shortcut of the programs you use frequently on the 
desktop, or task bar area or what ever it is called in win10.
If you don't want your desktop to be cluttered, you can also create a folder 
there and give it a name that will tell you it is programs from the start menu.
You can also search for the program you are looking for in the start menu in 
the search area by typing the first few letters, and arrow down, and when you 
hear the one you want, just hit enter, and should open.
Hope this helps for now.

Hi Tony,

I entirely agree with you: I'm struggling with it myself.

As for "selected/unselected", I understand that as you arrow up and down, 
although you can hear items in the menu being spoken, they are not 
automatically selected as it would have been before.  You need to press enter 
on an item to select it and only then do you have choices to tab along.  So 
select an item in the menu, press enter, and now as you press tab, you will see 
the sub-items of the item you have selected.

I am still very shaky in the start menu and would appreciate some tips as well.

Hello,

excellent job.  I am very pleased with the new read to end feature.  It
works like a dream.

I am currently using the office offer, because I need to come up with the
funds for my software maintenance agreement.  I hope to do that soon,
because Window-Eyes 9.3 is an excellent product, and I'm very pleased with
the new features.  Now we need touch functionality.  Thank you very much!

Hello,
I am using Microsoft Office 2013 with Windows 10 with absolutely no problems, 
so I can confirm that it does indeed work just fine.  I have considered 
upgrading to Microsoft Office 2016, but I have not done so yet.  Is there any

RE: What is the best Email client for Windows 10?

2016-01-03 Thread Jim Grimsby JR. via Talk
Well if you ask me the best e-mail client for windows for ever is Microsoft
outlook  sorry you are just not going to get better features then with
Microsoft outlook.  It works a treat with every screen reader I have tried
it with.  It sinks quite nicely with my  ICloud so all the contacts and
other information  finds its way  to my IPhone.  Maybe someday I will be
able to get all the apps in windows and then can use nothing but windows.
As I said outlook does the job for me quite nicely.

Well at some point Microsoft is not going to support windows 7.  There is no 
reason why they should as windows 10 is a free upgrade  for windows 7 and up.  
At some point you will have to upgrade if you want to use apps and some newer 
programs.  It is like all those people using xp at some point you will have to 
upgrade.

RE: Suggestions for the next version of Window-Eyes

Not only that,  but window-eyes does not read the name of the active tab
when it is changed using ctrl+tab.  This also has been something I reported

The suggestion is that window-eyes auto read, every time the

Try hitting control-tab in any program with multiple windows and 
window-eyes will NOT read the window title.
EVEN WHEN INSTRUCTED TO DO SO, automatically. I can have it read the 
title with the "title" command, but NOT automatically.

RE: 32 or 64 bit, that is the question

2015-11-27 Thread Jim Grimsby JR. via Talk
My thoughts  on this  are mainly directed buy the amount of ram on your
system.  If you have 4 gb of ram or less go with x86. If you have more then
4gb of ram then you will want to go with x64.  Yes x86 will at some point be
fazed out.  This will probably not happen soon how-ever. There are some
advantages to x64 but your system will probably not be able to take
advantage of them if it is an older system.

Subject: 32 or 64 bit, that is the question

Hi,

Well before the free W 10 offer expires, I'll update my W7 HP 32 bit system
to a flavour of W 10.  It seems that the system must be upgraded to W 10 32
bit first, activated and then a clean install of W 10 64 bit can be
undertaken if desired.  I think, although not confirmed, the update from W
10 32 bit to W 10 64 bit is also free.

So, my questions are:

Is 64 bit the comeing standard and so sooner or later  32 bit will be phased
out? i.e.  Is it better to bite the bullet now rather than be tforced into a
change in the future?  Also, my system would probably benefit from a clean
install regardless of the version of W 10.

Or, is there no real advantage in going up to 64 bit at present?

I know my system and printer will handle 64 bit and thankfully there is no
difference in versions of WE.  That is unlike the opposition of course.


Your thoughts please.

Thanks
Neville.

Hi,
First I can confirm  that using the key describer with print screen does
infact speak the message print screen. 
Second I can confirm that some keyboard don't send the correct code for this
key.  If this is happening of course you would not expect   window-eyes to
intercept and read this key. 
Third the input help command for nvda is the same command as the key
describer. Insert 1.
Finally  I am going to recommend that the alt+printScreen keyboard command
be added to the keyboard maniger  of virtual view so the user can change it.
I am also going to recommend  that this dialog be added to the app menu as
well.

Subject: Re: Introducing Virtual View 5.0

Aaron, and the rest.
I have been using numerous keyboards up through the years, and as you 
Aaron suggests, the PrintScreen usually is just right of F12, and on a 
standard keyboard, that would make it the farmost left of the 3 keys 
above the 6-pack. Yet, here is another issue.

On the laptop I have at the moment, a Dell, the 6-pack is located in the 
far upper right corner of the keyboard. That is, the lower-left key, the 
Del-key of the 6-pack, is immediately to the right of F12. There is no 3 
keys above this 6-pack. Neither any other place on the keyboard. Some 
suggested it could be where the App-key used to be, but nope, there we 
only have the Right-Control key. So my guess is that it is located under 
one of the other keys, likely in a combo with the FN-key.

Now moving on with my issue, I normally don't use the laptop's keyboard 
much. Tend to use a wireless keyboard. It is more of a standard 
design.And on this one, sure I have the 3 keys next to the F12. I now 
have had it confirmed that the left of the three, indeed is the 
PrintScreen-key. Thing is, that when I open the Keyboard-describer - 
like you Aaron suggested - I can press this key a million times, and it 
is not announced. Question 1 then, is PrintScreen supposed to be spoken 
under the keyboard describer, and can others confirm that it so happen?

I further cannot get this key to do anything, in connection with the 
Virtual View app, even if I press the Alt-PrintScreen inside a PDF file. 
Question 2, what could be the case with the PrintScreen? Are all 
PrintScreen-keys sending the same keycode, or are we once again into 
some keyboards not producing the right key-command, like with some 
numeric keypads on the market?

I am running a standard American version of Win7 Pro. The only thing 
noticeable about the PrintScreen on my wireless keyboard, is that it 
reads "PrintScreen" and underneath "Sys RQ". Don't know if that is the 
standard label on a keyboard, as I do not have any reference keyboard at 
hand. Further, running under WE8.4.

Although slightly off-topic, does anyone happen to know how to open the 
keyboard-describer in NVDA? I then could check and see if NVDA 
recognizes my PrintScreen key. Just trying to track down why it won't 
have any impact on my Virtual View. Unless something is totally wrong on 
my system, maybe  others are in the risk of experiencing similar issues, 
and hence it would be useful for us to know.

Of course, one small tip for a solution that could be more taylored to 
any keyboard on the market, is if you Aaron could have provided a hotkey 
in the app, which simulated the Alt-PrintScreen. I know, this is not the 
real good solution, but since I here see my laptop having the embedded 
PrintScreen somehow hid, and likely in with an odd key-combo, and my 
Wireless keyboard's PrintScreen does not produce the wanted result - it 
might be worth considering. My next guess is, that the Alt-PrintScreen 
may happen to be a frequently used combo, for many of the users. If not 
all keyboards on the market would happen to have a PrintScreen - and yet 
more have it so wrongly dug into some odd location - it only justifies 
the normal rule, and would strongly back the idea of an app-specific 
"simulation" hotkey.

Subject: NLS DTBC Write Protect controls not speaking correctly or at all

Hi listers and AI Squared staff:

 

I sometimes use NLS cartridges to store books.

 

Previously, I have used the software from NLS to write-protect cartridges
and the controls spoke using WE fairly well.

 

The URL for the software is:

 

http://www.loc.gov/nls/mdd/DTBCartridgeWriteProtect-1.4.1.msi

 

 

With this latest version, running Windows 7, WE speaks the names of the
controls, but, all the checkboxes and radio buttons say "unchecked" no
matter what I do.  I could use the mouse keys and WE would read the
tool-tips, which would actually give me clues as to whether something was
marked or not.

 

In Windows 10, I can't get much to speak at all.

 

Anyone know why this program, once useable, is now much harder to use?

Windows 10 speech is not a screen reader.  It is a speech synthesizer.  The
voices are the same as they were in windows 8.  If on the other hand you are
talking about narrator you can access this at any time buy pressing the
windows and enter. Narrator for windows 10 actually is a lot better than
narrator has ever been under windows 10.  If you actually do want to use
windows speech then you would bring up the Window-Eyes control  panel with
ctrl+\. In the tree select devices.  Expand this and go down to speech.  In
the list of synthesizers  select Microsoft  speech api.  Now press tab to

Just install classic shell. This will give you more control over your start
menu.  This includes where the search box is. For example I am running
windows 10.  I am using classic shell. The search box is focused if I press
tab from the start menu.  This means I see all of my menu options and the
search box is out of my way unless I want it buy tabbing over to it.  This
gives you the best of both worlds.

Hi netback. I know but the problem is that there are still jfw users that
might want to trial Window-Eyes and they might want a familiar layout to use
instead of the default hotkeys. In that case, what I would suggest should
happen is to have a layout that is built into Window-Eyes that JFW users can
use to transition. Also I would suggest that after installation, one of the
questions would be to ask a user whether he or she is familiar with JAWS and
wants to adapt Window-Eyes for a seenless transition. That could help a lot
of people especially as there are those out there who have no idea that
Window-Eyes can be adapted to a jfw or NVDA layout or whatever. If these
suggestions could be incorporated, I'm sure we could see more jfw users
using Window-Eyes alongside of jfw to get things done.

thats why i uninstalled it . there are too many conflicts. read to end is
undefined and can not be enabled or saved, two autoload keys etc. even when
you turn the insert layout app off these key changes remain until you close
the program you had loaded or reload w e every time to get it back to

Hi,
Did the upgrade with no problem.  I removed all screen readers before
upgrading backing up all my settings. The only screen reader I did not
remove was nvda.  Did the upgrade using nvda for the first part and narrator
for the second.  No problems. You will get the build update threw windows
update.  There is no need to do anything.  It will automatically update when

RE: stability versus new browse mode

2015-09-17 Thread Jim Grimsby JR. via Talk
Hi,
Well I find making auto hot key scripts for starting programs much more
reliable than using the windows short cut key system.  Another advantage is
you can use key combos that are not supported by the typical windows short
cut key system.  For example: I have Window-Eyes starting with the short cut
of windows+alt+w. 
Another advantage is I can take this short cut key script and run it on any
computer and the short cut key script will work.

Because you don't have to shut down window-eyes to restart with the startup
command what ever you define it as.  You can also just use the run dialog
and type wineyes.exe and press enter.  Window-eyes should restart.  
This has been the case for a while now.

Subject: stability versus new browse mode

Hello, I had been using a windows 7 laptop running wineyes 7.5, and it was
fairly stable. When I finally upgraded to wineyes 9.1, the new browse mode
could not perform the same tasks as the earlier version of wineyes. It kept
freezing up while I was on the web doing the same tasks as I had done while
running wineyes 7.5. Pressing control, alt, W did nothing. I had to do a
cold boot everytime. After using 9.1 for a couple of weeks, I had to
uninstall it and go back to an earlier version. This time I installed 8.4,
and it works as well as when I was running wineyes 7.5. So, to get the
benefits of the new browse mode, I would have to sacrifice stability. For
me, wineyes 9 was a waste of money. I can't even use it. I mean what good is
a silent screen reader. I have been using wineyes since the 1990's, and I
have never been this disappointed. The new browse mode is so dysfunctional
that it should be in beta.

Well not having played a lot with edge as of yet I can not really address
this question as it was pozed.  How-ever I will try to explain some things
based on my understanding.  First edge is accessible.  There are some
problems with it but these problems are being sorted out.  Note NVDA already
has expairamental support for the edge browser.  I am sure that the
window-eyes team also has such support for the edge browser in house.  It
should be noted here that the edge system is also used in universal  app
support and this is very important to blind people who want to use these
apps even if you don't use edge.  Remember also this operating system was
put out less then a month ago.  The issues and problems are being addressed.

Hi.

 

Before I go into my question, I agree with those that think Microsoft should
have included the ability for screen readers to use Edge.  If the code is
there, screen reader manufacturers are willing to use it.

 

Now, having said that, I have a different view of the Edge browser.  What
can it do for us blind users that Internet Explorer can't?  The only thing
I've heard of is you can write or type on a web page, but I don't know why
this is useful.  It obviously is, or Microsoft wouldn't have made it part of
Edge.

 

Just curious.

and here is a link to your sapi5 decTalk.

http://theflameofhope.co/dectalkreader1/DECtalkMain.zip

unzip it and in the dectalk main folder is a sapi5 folder so hit enter on
the sapi5 folder and run setup from inside the sapi5 folder and you will
have your sapi5 dectalk.

Sorry this software speech is awful.  Not sure what they did to the good old
relyable dectalk, but it sounds like it is speaking with some sort of
strange accent.  I will stick with dectalk access 32 for window-eyes.

 Yep, DecTalk shouldn't even be dignified with the name DecTalk anymore.
 The
 later versions of this synth, frankly, suck--and that's being generous.

 After Fonix took it over, they butchered the DecTalk synthesizer.  
 When DEC maintained it, it sounded great!  It had excellent audio 
 quality, and, could even sing with vibrato and probably a lot more I 
 don't know about.

Well if I could get dectalk 4.61 to support sapi 5 that would be cool.  I
just don't like dectalk 5.  Dectalk 6 was also pretty bad.  There was a
feture to allow for classic  voices with that one but I never figured out
how to do it.  
Dectalk 4.61 is still the clearest and most responsive software device in my
view.

Well if you are looking for the dectalk access 32 sound or dectalk 4.4 and
later you are going to be disappointed  with this SaPI  version of dectalk.
It is dectalk 5.0.  Usualy as the version number goes up software gets

I just listened to the file in question and I'm not sure where people are

at least with Windows 7. I'm not sure if the windows 8.1 sound for the
information bar is different for that, but for win 7 I'd actually call that
more of a doorbell, ding dong! Either way, it's good that that particular
sound can be turned off easily. I like it, because it lets me know a
download is ready to go, or something else with the information bar needs my
attention.

my experience on your Windows 8.1 system?  I'm not running Windows 8.1, but
Windows 7.  But if you're telling me that I'm not alone, perhaps that means
the problem is an oversight by the Win-eyes folks, and perhaps a solution

Subject: Trying to make Notepad say the first and last characters on a
line,using the Home and End keys

This may well be the reason I've always hated Notepad, and why I always try
to make far more use of MS Word.  I have no trouble in wird setting up the
described responses with the Home and End cursoring keys.  In word, the
Cursoring key adjustments are set up so that when I press the home key on
any line in the document, I hear the first letter on that line, and when I
press the End key, I likewise hear the last character of the current line.

In Notepad, however, the Home key works in that same manner, but pressing
the End key yields no sound at all, and that's regardless of the selected
First Action setting, which is the #3 of the 20 or so possible selections,
and which matches the setting in Word. The Second Action response is also
set to Undefined.  The cursoring key settings are all global.

Even if I try setting the first action setting for the End key to say
line, I still hear nothing.  Any good ideas out there about what I might
have done?  I'd like to make better use of Notepad, because Word is so rich
in disruptable settings that can force you to spend hours tracking down
problems with formatting.

Hi.

In Notepad, under format, do you have word wrap checked or unchecked?

I use Notepad all of the time, with word wrap checked.
After I press the home key, or the end key, I usually use the right and left
arrow keys to confirm the first and last characters...

RE: Windows 10

2015-06-10 Thread Jim Grimsby JR. via Talk
At some point you will get a windows update that will allow you to get
windows 10 when it becomes available.  If you want to update just reserve
your copy.  The update that allows you to check if your system is compatible
and reserve your update will also allow you to install it when it becomes
available or pick a time that is convenient  for you to install it.  I my
self am going to do it as soon as it become available I can hardly wait.  I
am going to love the new universal  aps support the ability to use android
apps on it if this is accessible and the new start screen.  I also am hoping
that the voice assistant is accessible soon and of course I hope window-eyes
will support touch with it.  I also hope that nls will make its android app
available on windows. Also Iphone apps can be ported to windows as well.
This is exciting stuff.  I am also going to look in to windows 10 mobile  on
the phone side as well.  
Ok I know I love my windows.

This is correct.  Although with some video cards you might get a warning

have seen if no monitor  is connected it may not boot. If this is the case
someone will need to go in to the bios and fix this.  As I said  I have not
seen this on very many boxes. Feel free then to use your system with no

allow us to do so much more with our computers. It is a free update that
will allow you to use universal  apps work with apps that we never had on
the pc.  Have a voice assistant on the pc and so on. Windows 10 is also
going to be more stable and faster and is very much worth  upgrading  to.
Btw once again it is a free upgraid so why not?

I see in my systray on my windows 7 64 bit laptop that there is an item
there to upgrade to windows 10.  Windows 7 meets my needs and so I'm

Hi Rod,
Not sure about Windows 10, but when I went to 8.0 from 7 I had to remove
Window-eyes before doing the upgrade.
You can press windows-enter to start and stop narrator in 8.1 and later.
More than likely you'll be at the setup your computer screen and Narrator
should work enough to get you to the desktop to reinstall Windows, again,
you can use windows-enter as a toggle.

Hi Darrell,

Do you mind answering a couple of questions?
Is it possible to just upgrade to Windows 10 from a copy of Windows 7 Home
or Ultimate and then would Window-Eyes make the transition into the new OS?
If Window-Eyes needs to be reinstalled, what would I need to do in order to
get to a place where I have screen reader access via Narrator?
I certainly appreciate any feedback. Smile

Much thanks,

Rod

I am using the preview, and it is accessible. There are some issues of
responciveness, such as when you use alt tab to switch between windows, and
be careful when moving between builds, because if you are microsoft office

RE: Seeking Your Input

Well in spartom prodject fire fox plug-ins will work.  I think the most
important things for window-eyes is to support that web browser as soon as
it become a stationary target.
Second window-eyes is the only screen reader at the moment that does not
support touch.  Window-eyes needs to support touch. 
All these other ideas are nice and fine but with out touch support
window-eyes is behind everyone else.  I am sure that the issue is being
studied and when we finely get touch support it will be better then the
rest. 
Finely window-eyes really needs to do a better job hooking the keyboard.
For example in windows explorer command for shift insert can not be defined
because if you issue these commands the paste command is performed instead.
In outlook the new message command is performed instead of the shift insert
command. Capslock should be its own prefix verces just being another insert
key.   Numpad insert and the insert key should be treated as separate keys
as should left windows and right windows. 
3rd party tools.
Screen ocr should be added as a add-on app that gets installed with
window-eyes. Support for skype really needs improvement.  I should be able
to use skype in what ever interface.  Keys for accessing the most important
parts of the skype window should be added.

In windows explorer keyboard commands to read headers should be added. 

In the brows enhanced  app place markers should work as expected.  The
ability to read the name of the document loaded should be added as well as
reading the line of text the browser is on should be added.  And example 
Please log in document.
National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped
Downloadable Books and Magazines 
I have window-eyes set to read nothing because I don't want the whole page
read as a page loads.  I don't want the first 24 lines.  I just want to know
what page I am on and the line of text I am on.  As it stands now I get no
information at all. 

Minor window-eyes changes.
Smart message box reading.  I don't want a whole message  box read.  I also
most of the time want to hear more information then just the name of the
dialog   and the focus button.  I want the name the text relating to the
message and the focused button. 
For example.  Delete Multiple Items
Are you sure you want to permanently delete these 11 items?
Yes button. 
The ability to read heading level after name would save a whole bunch of
time.  the ability to read controls  as you can in braille feeld name classe
type class state feeld data.  Make the buttons also see that the name of the
button is not read as data but name.  this is correct verces reading it as
data.  Yes for example is not data you can't change it it is the name of the
object not its data.  
Correct the reading of tab controls. When you press the control  tab key the
name of the tab that is active should be read then the name of the object
that has focus should be read.  At the moment when using control tab you
don't know what tab you have moved to. You can see an example of this in the
sounds window in the control  panel.  An app to allow quick access to tabs.
For example if you need tab 3 you could press control  3 to access the 3rd
tab in the page tab list. 
The f8 command working in brows mode is cool but the ability to use normal
windows commands for copying text would be nice. 
Thanks for reading.

Hi Jeremy,

I echo Ray's statements below. I'll add one more web site or component and
that's instant teleseminar, and go to webinar. So much is done these days
using these tools, and it's just not accessible as far as the interaction
with the host. So we can't enter questions to ask, or interact via chat
features, or read the info the host posts such as a simple web link.

The ocr feature is definitely necessary for captcha in ie, and other
clickable images. Webvisum is only for firefox and there needs to be a
reliable ocr feature for IE and FF that's not dependent on a third party
tool. Any time our work productivity depends on a third party rather than
remaining mostly in our own control, that hampers our own work performance.

I'd like notification when a web page has been updated. So based on in page
links or some part of a form that requires user input, after that data has
been entered, I'd like verbal notification of what has changed on that web
page. Right now, it seems like we have to scroll back up the page to find
out what if anything has changed.

Thanks for listening.

Also, a small matter that I think would only benefit  a small number of us

having to unload and reload Eudora every time it is used.

RE: Seeking Your Input

I think this would be a good feature.  I question if it should be a part of
window-eyes it self.  An external app to solve these and another or the same
to perform ocr.  This way when the app needs updating it could be updated
from the apps page when you start the program. That is one of the wonderful
things about window-eyes apps you can add features with out having to code
it directly in to the program.  Such an app will probably need regular
updating and the window-eyes update cycle is not robust enough to acomadate
such an app.  Just like if you wanted a research tool having it as an
external app would be better.  lets take a look at how other screen readers
handel this.  Many of the updates have to do with keeping the tools working
as they should.  If this was done as an app it could be updated with out
having to update the whole program.

Actually you do have block selection in programs like Microsoft word.  So
this really doesn't brake the standard.  How-ever I agree that both should
be an option.  I do like block selection when selecting a large  portion of
text.  When selecting a small portion of text though block selection just
doesn't make sense.

Hi Again:
I had turned of the mouse voice setting and the phantom speech went away for
at least several days.
I did encounter problems reading some context menu items and when I turned
the mouse voice back on they read properly.
During testing I have set the mouse voice up quite a bit so I can instantly
recognize when it speaks.
Yesterday twice, out of being on the computer most of the day, I heard the
mouse voice speak what I had either tabbed to or arrowed over - I forget if
the normal voice spoke the same text after and was waiting for it to happen
again to detail the problem but it has not happened again yet.
I don't remember if I was in a context menu, on the Desktop or in Internet
Explorer but for sure the mouse is reading things behind the scenes without
any user interaction as Jim had mentioned and why I tried turning the mouse
voice off.
As I told Chris I have the track mouse with cursor csetting turned off in
the WE Control Panel dialog.
Just a heads up that WE will try to speak things without any user
interaction requesting speech via what seems to be mouse movement behind the
scenes and is required, likely, for WE to handle some things like that
situation with the Context Menu not reading all the entries unles I arrowed,
cycled through it a few times.
So, with the mouse voice on I get one set of phantom speech and perhaps
focus problems and with the mouse voice off I get a diferent set of problems
and focus problems - considering not being able to find to click on a
context menu item a focus problem which it actually may not be but then if
you cant read it you cant focus it.
I did find the missing menu items even with the mouse voice turned off, by
cycling through what sounded like a changing set of MenuItems a couple of
times and they were spoken by the correct cursor voice.
I wonder if that was due to turning the mouse voice feature back on or if it
is a timing problem with WindowEyes code base and, or, scripts.
I was in the My Computer list of available folders I think so may try to
reproduce it by turning the mouse voice on and off and trying that windows
feature to see if it is reproducable.
What a hassle, good thing WindowEyes is pretty much free.

Hi Guys:
OK, after having turned off the mouse voice setting the phantom speech went
away.
But, now when in some lists like the This Computer list of drives and
reviewing the Context Menuu or in my own program WindowEyes will sometimes
start reading a list item then stop, speech is cut off before the end of the
list item with focus.
Also, in the list sometimes I hear 2 items read after hitting the down arrow
key instead of just one.
Also, some list items are not read at all unless I ReRead the list several
times - it seems they are there sometimes and not there other times.
So I turned the mouse voice back on.
I went into the This Computer and the Context Menu items read very well
except for a phantom word graphic reading on the first item indicating
again that the WindowEyes use of the mouse related to dynamic content is
likely causing problems.
This is not good since if I turn it off I don't get phantom speech but it
seems I have even more serious problems, sigh.
The real situation here seems to lie with the underlying mechanism
WindowEyes is using to monitor dynamic content and execute speech.
I am not sure there is anything a end user like me can do to

rip them then merge all the cds in to one file and then you might want to
find using cue points all the chapters.  Then of course you will then want
to split the book in to files using the cue points just maid.  Finely the
split files will be converted in to what ever file format you want to use
for example 64 kbps  2250khz.  
Other wise there is not much of a point to not use mp3 or what  ever format
you like.  if you are looking for a good non locy format then flac will do
you fine.

RE: question

2015-05-17 Thread Jim Grimsby JR. via Talk
Hello,
if you could explain exactly what you were hoping to accomplish. We might be
better able to assist you. For example, if you're attempting to reinstall
factory settings you would want to go to the file menu in the window-eyes
control panel and go down to the factory sets option the shortcut for this
is F. This will allow you to reinstall any factory set files that you wish.
If on the other hand you would like to start with a completely fresh user
profile, simply delete the window-eyes folder found in your user folder,
with window-eyes not running. Of course, restart window-eyes and a new
folder will be created and the default scripts will be installed. If you're
attempting to accomplish something else. Please do let us know.
I do hope this helps!

Hi,

Here's what the manual says about Reset:
R = Reset Settings
Choosing this option will cause Window-Eyes to revert to the settings you
previously saved to disk. This is especially useful if you make some changes
you do not like, or you inadvertently modify a setting that has negative
consequences. Note that this option will not reset Window-Eyes to factory
defaults; it only loads the settings you last saved to disk.

So, it sounds like it simply reloads the current set file.

Hth,

No! No! No!
What-ever you do, do not start messing about with your permissions on your
system. They are assigned the way they are assigned for a reason. They are
put there for your security. You definitely do not want to run as an
administrator either, windows will prompt you when administrator privileges
are required and User Account Control will definitely protect you.  your
first idea is good. If it is not broken. Do not fix it
as for your second problem programs such as Internet Explorer do not have
permissions to access the desktop and therefore they cannot send shortcuts

malware and other things that could be used to access your file system

Hello Rob, and thanks for your suggestion.

With the exception of putting a shortcut for my favorites folder on the

favorites folder entry. I do use this method quite often when wanting to
make desktop shortcuts, and would have done so in this instance immediately

IE. I just can't figure out what might be causing this behavior, and

time.

Someone mentioned the possibility of faulty permissions, but I dunno. 
Since I am the only user of this PC, then I guess I should make all
permissions wide open, and I wouldn't have to put up with the nagging every
time I want to perform a simple function such as deleting a file, or
installing a program. OK, I know, installing apps or programs is a pretty
serious consideration, but again, it's just me after all. But even after all
these years, I'm still Leary of messing too much with permissions, as
strange as that might seem. Kind of along the lines of if it aint broke

On the whole though, I think I like your suggestions for creating favorites

still, this function shouldn't return a response like that one. I'm still
somewhat baffled.

Hi Guys: After I have turned off the Mouse Voice setting and the Track Mouse
With Cursor setting I have not had any phantom reading so far.
I have not turned off the Automatically  Read baloon Tips yet but may do
that later as Rod mentioned.
I did route the mouse to the Desktop so it would duplicate one of the prior
tests that was reading what was under the mouse and that is seemingly no
longer causing a phantom reading of what is under the mouse while the NumPad
read mouse keys still work properly as I think Jim had noted.
This has been an intermittant problem so I cant say this fixed the problem
for sure but the past 2 days have been phantom reading free so far.
If it comes back I will try turning reading of baloon tips if it is even on
- think I may have turned it of some time ago, but so far so good.
When I feel comfortable I will switch to Windows 10 and start all over but
document what I can this time in case others have problems I will run up
against.

Hi: I changed the subject to narrow this particular problem discussion.
OK:
Thinking on this I thought I would first try and figure out where phantom
reading might occur and why.
First phantom speech could be coming from WE reading something under the
Mouse Cursor as Chip mentioned but why would WE read something under the
Mouse Cursor if I do not press the mouse, numpad, keys to read anything and,
in fact have pressed some standard key on the keyboard?
Chip mentioned that WE will try and read, think it was, tool tips
automatically which means WE is watching for things to automatically happen
on the screen and read something based on screen activity rather than just
the press of a keyboard key.
Now, I have unchecked the relevant option in the WE Control Panel to disable
this from happening but it still happens, errant reading of items from
someplace on the screen outside of where focus is suppose to be.
It happens in both Internet Explorer and in a standard Desktop Application
so not related to Internet Explorer.
So, outside of reading Tool Tips automatically, what else is suppose to be
read automatically by WindowEyes without being a response to a keyboard
action or what may be read under the Mouse or the WE Cursor automatically in
response to a non mouse or WE Cursor keyboard event being requested by
pressing a Numpad key (mouse cursor or WE Cursor keys)?
Knowing just a little about WE Scripting WE has to be executing a speek
command at the wrong time to actually speak the phantom item.
Could it be WE trying to read something under the Mouse Cursor or WE Cursor
or could it be some buffering problem and is there a test I can do to figure
out which, or neither, of these may be behind the problem?

My chosen Synth is Eloquence, and that goes away when shutting down

RE: Phantom Items Being Read

2015-05-15 Thread Jim Grimsby JR. via Talk
What kind of mouse pad do you have on that box?  Have you checked to make
sure that  track mouse with focus is turned off?  Does your mouse have any
software that uses intelasense?  It could be that the intelasense or what
ever they are calling it these days is  causing the mouse to move around the
screen trying to focus the mouse on object the driver thinks you would have
interest in. it has been years sense I ran in to that little problem, but I
would think even to day that it would cause the same kind of issues. 
What other programs do you have loaded at start up?  Some times tsr programs
can cause windows to pop up at times that will cause window-eyes to read
things that as far as you can tell are not there.  For example the getright
download manager will pop up a window called getright moniter.  At times
when you are done with a task and think you should go to the desktop this
invisible   window has activation  and focus.  Another example is the hp
support tool.  It pop ups and because it doesn't work with UIA it crashes.
It might be time to give that system a refresh and start from scratch. It
can be done with speech and you will just need to reinstall  your desktop
software again.  
I of course am just guessing here.  I can not reproduce your problem on
windows 8.1 try as I might.  Window-eyes and windows 8.1 are working like a
dream over here.

Subject: WE Problem Analysis

Hi WE Users:
After using WE for some time now with MS Windows 8.1 I have noticed a
pattern to some problems.
In my in-house Microsoft Visual Studio Developed project WE has trouble
holding or finding focus on a Master Detail form with a MenuBar.
When I open the menu bar and right arrow WE might read File View File View
File View Edit File View file view edit sorts etc...
When I try to down arrow through the Menu Items in one of the menus we may
start reading the first few menu items then lock up until I tab or alt tab
to change focus to another control and back again.
Sometimes reading through the ListBox using the arrow keys WE just locks up.
Sometimes I might hear the word graphic spoken before it locks up, most
times not.
Always, when it works, When I LogOn to my computer after letting it go into
sleep mode WE stutters on the Password like Sta star sta star sta star sta
star etc as I type each letter.
Also, after logging on this way my Outlook messages wont read and the last
time even Internet Explorer wouldnt read, just ping ping trying to read
using the arrow keys in both cases - web problem for WE?
Sometimes I hear things spoken that are not in a focused object I am trying
to either alt-tab to or otherwise navigate to.
Now, all this speaks of WE trying to read more than it should, perhaps
reading the entire dom for each keypress?
I dont know but this seems to be hinting at some type of problem related to
WE trying to find the correct item to hold focus and thus speak.
None of these problems are exhibited by JAWS - I have tested them out with
the alternate reader to ensure it was  not a Microsoft problem.
Note that my past experience, postings, on Visual Studio problems fall into
this focus problem category as well and that the Visual Studio problems are
also not present in JAWS or, for that matter, in a couple of other screen
readers I usually have to fall back on.
So, these problems may be a result of trying to read the entire dom or WE
getting lost in the middle of trying to position itself and allowing focus
to get mixed up during this process somehow.
While this all is indeed problematic the reason for this posting is to help
identify, perhaps, the source(s) of the many problems WindowEyes is having
lately so dont take it personally guys but see if you can add to the
analysis.
I will post to the GW Scripting List since some of those folks are quite
good when it comes to how WE does things.

RE: Trouble with MLB.com

2015-05-06 Thread Jim Grimsby JR. via Talk
Yes I did, as soon as I detected the problem. I generally listen to most of
my games archived. I also have send feedback about the fast-forward and
rewind problems several times for several years with no results. As I said
previously, it is not a major problem for me, because I generally download
the archives, and listen to them with my favorite media player. actually for
these files,I tend to use gold wave.
a note about using replay media capture with the standard media Center site.
The replay media capture program will download from this site. However, it
takes a considerable amount of time for it to do so. You will also find
naming the files with the appropriate names a little problematic.   with the
accessible site, you can simply go to the now listening section and copy the
information under that
Hope this helps.

I am not aware of a way to use the rewind or fast forward in an archive
game.  I have complained a few times without a change.  Maybe more such
feedback will c help.  Smile.  I had noticed the archive problem last week
as well and called on it to MLB.  So I am glad there was at least one other

Its funny, I thought it was just me when the links were dead once they
became archives.  Either way, the accessible site or the main media center
are both quite usable with one big minus on the accessible site.  
In an archive game, unlike the regular mediacenter, you can't rewind or
fastforward: if so, its a visual slider wherein with the main mediacenter,
there are links to fastforward, rewind, etc.  In the accessible site, simply
pause, increase or decrease volume, that's it.

 there was a problem last week, we're games were not being shown as

 site. I used the standard media Center site,  quite frankly, the 
 information was shown by window-eyes quite oddly.  I reported the 
 problem with the archives to major league baseball and it has now been 
 corrected, so I am back to using the accessible site. I do think 
 however, that the window-eyes team should have a look at this website.

I'm certainly no expert on this, but being a programmer, it sounds to me
like the only difference is that now app developers will be able to develop
apps from Windows which will run on Windows phone and iOS and other mobile
devices. I doubt it has anything to do with it being compatible with, say
Windows 8 or 10. Maybe I'm wrong though.

RE: Breaking! Microsoft brings Android, iOS apps to Windows 10

2015-04-30 Thread Jim Grimsby JR. via Talk
Actually according to what I was told is that if Microsoft expozes the
wigits or objects if you like that term better to UIA this new system could
be quite accessible with a screen reader such as narrator or window-eyes.
This framework  is not just going in to windows mobile but will also be
going in to windows pro as well.  After all, all aps that will run on
windows mobile will run on windows 10 pro. This means like I said if the
wigits were exposed to UIA no modification's  to the apps themselves  would
be needed.  Of course they would need to make sure that the app worked with
voice over or talk back in order to be accessible. 
This is according to what another screen reader maker told me.  This is not
speculation on my part. 
Was playing with narrator for windows 8.1 on my pc not to long ago and it is
about what you would exspect from lets say voice over.  A little to chatty
from the keyboard, but I could see myself working with it on a phone device.

RE: Screen Reader compatible Keyboards. Was: Re: speaking of Dell computers...

2015-04-27 Thread Jim Grimsby JR. via Talk
No actually  the num-pad five sends a completely different  code then number
5 on the intermedia  pad.  This is how programs like winamp know if you have
issued a number 5 on the num-pad or not.  That being said keyboard codes are
keyboard codes and they don't change from device to device.  They don't even
change from operating system to operating system.  Wether or not the
operating system supports the codes is the question.  For example IOS does
not support the codes from the numpad and so they are completely ignored.
There is no need for any list or anything like that. If you are missing keys
redefining another key that you are not using is quite simple and a good
salution to the problem.  Another salution to the problem in the case of the
num-lock is a utility that will turn it on or off.  This utility could be
placed in the startup section of your operating system and would set the
state of num-lock.  This quite frankly is much to do about nothing. It has
been a problem that has been with us for years as I have already outlined
and the work arounds for it are well know and understood.

Hi David and everyone,

While I certainly appreciate reading this thread, and clearly there is a lot
of energy on this matter of keyboards and their use with screen readers, I
would like to say that there is no need for any serious concern about losing
the functionality of the Numpad and therefore the functionality of
Window-Eyes.
This is because any function currently assigned to the Numpad keys can be
assigned to other key combinations in the WE control panel.
Also, regarding keyboards which happen to include a Numpad and yet do not
include a NumLock key, I would guess that if the manufacturer was simply
providing the Numpad to make numeric input easier, that manufacturer
probably didn't make those keys unique in the codes they pass on to Windows
when pressed.
In other words, taking the number 5 on the Numpad as an example, my guess is
that it would send the same key code to Windows as woudd be sent to Windows
by pressing the number 5 on the Qwerty area of the keyboard; therefore,
there would be no uniqueness about the Numpad numbers, and also there would
be no alternate functions on the Numpad number keys, that is, that
uniqueness we're used to when we turn NumLock off.
In short, we will need to get used to the idea that we are going to have to
use whatever keys are available to get our screen reader tasks completed,
and perhaps we'll have to use more key combinations like Control-Shift-T,
which we're all used to anyway.
In truth, as long as we have keyboards which work at all, we'll be able to
control Window-Eyes. Smile

All the best,

Rod

Rick and the rest,
This discussion, altogether reminds me the one that every now and than, has
popped up around USB NumPads.

Rick, how much we would love a list provided, for all keyboards on the
market, and their compatibility, it will never work. I am going to deal with
but a couple of reasons, some of them likely brand new to some of you.

First of all, it is true, some keyboards need hardware specific drivers. 
Even Microsoft has a line of keyboards, which will need drivers,
particularly designed for the keyboard to work fully. In some cases, the
driver has a menu, or some sort of a control panel, to setup the exact
behavior. For instance, my one Microsoft keyboard here, comes with a set of
Quick keys, for launching your favorite net browser, your standard Email
client, your desirable music player and so forth. Trouble is, the control
panel provided by the driver, simply is useless with a screen reader, due to
a totally graphical interface. Another Microsoft keyboard I have, is somehow
doable to program, since the control panel for setting it up, is partially
labelled with text on the screen.In both cases, should you decide you don't
want to change the quick keys and their standard (default)  behavior, you
can run both these keyboards as plug-and-play. Plug them in, and enjoy the
standard features, including an app-key, a numlock key, and standard
behavior of the numeric keypad.

My one Logitech keyboard, does not have a right-hand windows key, but does
have an application key. My one Dell laptop has no app-key, no right windows
key, but has an FN-key. The wireless keyboard I am on at this instance, has
an app-key, a numlock-key, but has no Ctrl-key on

Thanks I will take a look at this.  
Note even though windows 8 is not  directly spoken of here it should work
because the registry  system for the keyboard has not changed.

Check SharpKeys at

There are decent directions on the site which should let you know if it will
do what you need. Use it carefully.

I have remapped the CapsLock key to function as a Control key, the
LeftControl to serve as an Alt key and the LeftAlt to serve as the CapsLock.
This makes it easier to use the frequent Control-Arrow(s) key combination
for cursor movement by word, etc.

Hi rick,
I think the person you are looking for was me.  I explained how some apps
could change the function of   the keyboard and in some cases add
functionality to it.  My personal favorite  it AutoHotKey.  There are others
of course, but this one just happens to be my personal favorite.  Not only
do I use it to remap keys at times but I also use  it to launch my favorite
programs with a quick press of a hot key.  For example windows+alt+w
launches window-eyes windows+alt+n starts NVDA windows+shift+w start winamp
and so on.  It makes my life a lot faster.  Another nice thing is once you
got it setup the way you want you can simply compile the script and send it
along to your friends.  They don't even need to have AutoHotKey installed.  
Hth
Note if you are looking for something simpler then a little scripting
program that will do everything you want let me know and I will see what I
can dig up.  I did use another program for this function years ago.

Hi,
When buying a keyboard this is something you have had to check for years.
Does it use a function key. That changes the function of the function keys
to media commands or to launch other programs.  The location of the arrow
keys no there is no standard for this.  Does the keyboard use intellasense
drivers that can perform things like auto correction and short cuts.  These
can quite often cause issues for screen reader.  Of course the subject at
hand does it have a numlock aplacations key etc.  this is nothing new we
have had to check these things for years.  Not sure why all the fuss now

This time it is the Num Lock key, and it is probably true, that few ever use

Just proving, you can't really assume much of anything these days.

RE: speaking of Dell computers...

2015-04-24 Thread Jim Grimsby JR. via Talk
Well I started in windows 95 with a 101 keyboard.  It did not have a windows
key or an application's key.  in fact it was a upgrade  from windows 3.1.
when I finely got a 104 keyboard you can believe I used all the new keys
right away. 
One key to perform a task verces two.  And two in a rather odd finguring
location.  As I said before if you are missing key you can always remap
other key to perform task. AutoHotKey is a very useful utility.  You can use
it to remap keys. You can also use it to allow you to make short cuts to
start programs.  For example alt+windows+w starts window-eyes on my system.
I have a lot of quick short cuts.  The cool thing is also you can make your
short cut script in to an exe file and take it with you to what ever
computer you are working with.it is also free so no need to spend any money
on a keyboard.

Same thing here:
My new Dell came with a keyboard but it did not have a num lock key, I
purchassed another and it came without an Applications Key.
I finally Purchassed a third keyboard that has both but the fellow at Best
Buy had a hard time finding one with both the num lock and applications
keys.
My guess is software should be designed around this newkeyboard layout
senario since I don't know if it is possible to influence the hardware
manufactures to comply with an individual software product in lieu of 99.99
percent of their base client requirements.
That or perhaps AI Squared could sell a compatible keyboard and even make a
buck for coffee.
I don't know the best solution but it seems the large manufacturers are
getting away from the applications key and the num lock keys.
By the way, the girl from Dell had no clue as to what I ment when I called
them about getting a keyboard with both and sent me to a webPage where
keyboards were detailed but even there I couldn't figure out which ones came
with what I needed to work with WindowEyes and that is why I ended up over
at Best Buy and their sales person also had a hard time finding one but, at
least, he did find one, at least for now.
It is quite frustrating to drop hundreds for a computer only to find out you
need to hard scrounge additional hardware if you want to use WindowEyes and
there was not anything on the WindowEyes site as to which keyboards were
compatible with their software - at least I didn't find anything at the
time.
I guess in some cases a modified f10 key will work in place of the
Applications Key but as far as I know no num lock key can be a killer me
thinks.

Subject: Re: is anyone using the vocalizer expriseve voices if so what do
youthink of them?

Here's my take on it. Regardless of how good a new synth is it takes time to
get used to it. I agree with Brice in that a short demo can sound good, but
it really says nothing about practical every day usage.

The problem is that we get tuned into a specific synth voice, especially if
we've been using it for years and seldom if ever switched synths. 
This is what I experienced after using a DecTalk Express for 20 years and
finally decided to try some of the new software synths that are unarguably
much more human sounding. I like Vocalizer Expressive, although I wish GW
went with Ivona, simply because I like those voices more. I have the SAPI
versions but of course using SAPI is a performance hit compared to
Window-Eyes directly accessing a synth via its own driver. But that's
another story.

My point is that when I started using Vocalizer Expressive and Ivona they
were both very difficult to get used to simply because they were different
and my brain was tuned into the DecTalk Express voice. Even though they
sounded much better I was frustrated and constantly switching back and forth
because I could run DecTalk considerably faster and never have to stop and
rewind so to speak. But eventually, after being wrapped up in such a
wrestling match until I was sick of it I realized that the only way to make
another synth work was to stop using my old DecTalk as a crutch and force
myself to stick with the new voice.

I don't remember now how long it took, and it was frustrating, but
eventually my brain got tuned into the new voice and it sounds fine now. 
And I never look back. My old DecTalk is hibernating in a closet somewhere
now.

So the moral of the story is that patience is indeed a virtue. We are all
creatures of habit and hate change, even if that change is for the better.
But of course this is no guaranty that any particular voice is going to be
the one that works for you. Case in point. Many folks like Vocalizer
Expressive Tom. Personally I hate it. For some inexplicable reason it's
extremely annoying to me. So I think, what a shame they wasted such a good
name on a useless synth. grin.

Just my 22 cents worth.

Tom

tagging friends using the facebook app

2015-04-12 Thread Jim Grimsby JR. via Talk
Hi,

Ok first I have never needed to do this before,  so I had to figure it out. 

First go in to the facebook app. 

Now press the status button. You can write what ever it is you want to say
in the edit box now or you can do it after you tag your friends. 

Any way I wrote what I wanted to say first. I mean focus is already there so
you might as well.  I tried it both ways as I said and it works. 

Now tab over to tag a friend. 

Press this button.

Now tab to the list view and move down to the friend you want to tag. 

Press enter. If you have more friends to tag move down the list to the next
one and press enter.  Keep doing this tell  you have tagged all the people
in the list view you want to tag.

Note window-eyes may report and probably  will report it is not selected
but it is.  Now ehn you are done in the list tab over to save.  Now press
enter.  Note you must press enter on the save button or you will be in a
never ending loope.  Spacebar on this button does not cut it for some
reason.  Also spacebar on the list item  does not cut it here.  You need to
use the inter key. 

Then you can go over to post and it will be posted and you will see that the
people you wanted to tag in the post were tagged.

When I want to Post, I first press the letter e to actually find the edit

RE: Microsoft Defender?

2015-04-04 Thread Jim Grimsby JR. via Talk
Exactly it at times is also a good idea to have other software that can
catch bugs as well.  You don't run these in real time you run them or
install them when you think you have a problem.  For example spy bot search
destroy  will some times catch things that defender misses or mulware bites
doesn't see either.  On most of my boxes I have defender running in real
time.  it is resource  lite does a good job and is free.  Mulware bites is
also on my boxes.  It does a good job of catching stuff as described below.
I also have spy bot search destroy and use it as I described above. Finely
if I am sure that I have a bug I will install avg or avast and let them do
there thing.  Once I have solved the problem I either uninstall them or
disable them.  The rule of thumb here is never let more then one checker do
real time checking at a time.  understand that this can happen and will
cause you problems if it does and make sure it doesn't.  there is no reason
though that you can't have more then one protection salution on your box if
you want it. 

This is not complicated!

No, that is not correct.

MalwareBytes is designed to compliment a standard anti-virus program. It
focuses primarily on the latest threats; adware, malware, spyware, trojans,
rootkits, and web sites. And the free version does not run in real-time or
update automatically. So it is doing nothing until you manually update it
and manually run a scan. It is typically better at removing problems after
they've infected your system than most anti-virus programs, which typically
work best when things are trying to sneak in the back door.

Yes at the risk of making people who love xp mad at me and I am sorry in
advance.  If you are running xp it is time past time to get rid of xp and
update to windows 8.1.  xp is no longer being supported. It is not being
updated.  At some point soon window-eyes will probably not work with it.
Windows 8.1 can be maid to look like xp for the most part using  clasec
shell and old new explorer.  Window-eyes works wonderful with clasec shell
and old new explorer will give you the menu system back in explorer and will
work wonderful with window-eyes. You will also have access to windows 8 apps

 You will have access to windows defender as well.  A much better built in

be updated to windows 8.1 if possible. 
Most systems running xp will also run windows 8.1. unless it is a really old
box. This means if you can update you really should.

Hi

Just a note on mse - I still use a xp machine, and although the end of
support notice is there, mse still works on my xp machine.  The definitions
are being updated, and all still works as expected.  The only thing you will
see is that the pc status will show at risk, but I ignore that, and it is
still doing fine.

 Actually this is not true.  Many virus  protection packages will 
 allow you to run them along side one another. Defender will not and 
 if you do run programs like this along side one another you are

RE: Microsoft Defender?

2015-04-04 Thread Jim Grimsby JR. via Talk
No if you are running defender then you are running spy ware and virus
protection. If you are using windows 8.x.  you don't want to run other
salutions along side defender because this will cause you nothing but
trouble and defender will not let you do that any way. If you are running an
earlier version of windows then you should get security  essentials  because
defender on these versions only does spy ware.  That is why I said defender
is not on earlier versions speaking of the windows 8 defender.

RE: leaving list

2015-04-02 Thread Jim Grimsby JR. via Talk
Well this is an example of why this needs to change.  Back in the window
bridge days the demo would time out after 30 minutes. The cool thing was you
did not need to reboot. You just needed to wait 5 minutes  or so and then
restart window bridge and it would go on working. It would be really nice if
you had the option to reboot or wait a period of time. With the new
window-eyes restart feature after the time elapsed window-eyes could
automaticly restart.  I would also like to see the window-eyes  restart
feature automaticly restart window-eyes if after a set time it remains  u
unresponsive.  It would also be nice if a feture was provided that would
kill the old icons from the system tray.  Yes I am perfectly aware this is a
windows bug with the system tray but I would like to see it worked around. 
Thanks for reading.

word nav while editing Microsoft outlook messages.

2015-03-20 Thread Jim Grimsby Jr. via Talk
I was wondering while editing a Microsoft outlook message if the word nav
app could be used.  This would be quite useful. I see at the moment it
cannot. I loaded the app while in Microsoft outlook and pressed insert+z and
nothing happened.  I guess this means this app will have to be updated in
order for this to work.  Also I think it would be a good idea to allow the
inter key to be used while the context menu is opened.  For example while
using the spell check commands before you can press enter on one of the
options in the context menu you must turn word nav off,  because if you
don't it informs you that you pressed an invalid key.   This means you are
constantly turning word nav on and off with insert+z.

Hth!

RE: trying to decide if I should migrate to window-eyes 9 because I still have windows xp

2015-03-04 Thread Jim Grimsby Jr. via Talk
I would urge all users of office 2007 and later who don't like the ribbon to
check out classic  menus for office.  This is a ribbon add on that gives you
back your classic  menu interface.  While I have no problem with the ribbon
I must confess that I don't understand the layout meaning why things were
put where they were.  With classic  menu for office just press alt+q twice
and you will get everything you need in a vertical menu. 
This app is not free how-ever. 
There is a free alternative but I don't remember the name of it at the
moment,  and I did not like it as well.

RE: tutorial on the classic shell for 8.1

2015-03-02 Thread Jim Grimsby Jr. via Talk
Hi,
To work with the normal  start screen just press shift windows.  The classic
shell works like the older start menu system.  So think of it like a
vertical menu system with no horizontal  menu bar.  As for a tutorial  not
that I know of.

RE: test message using Dragon naturally speaking with window eyes

2015-03-01 Thread Jim Grimsby Jr. via Talk
Hello,
I agree that Window-Eyes should have better support for Dragon
NaturallySpeaking.  That being said, I do use it on a daily basis with all
of my screen readers with no add-ons such as J say quite successfully.  It
surprises me.  However, that Window-Eyes does not support Dragon
NaturallySpeaking better than it does considering the fact that back in the
dust days vocal-eyes   was the only screenreader I knew of that had full
support for DragonDictate
it should also be noted here that there is an app available for Window-Eyes
for use with Windows speech recognition created by Chip orange
I hope this helps.  Thank you for reading.

   High Everybody,
This is a test message to see how would window  eyes will work with Dragon
Naturally Speaking home edition.
I am doing this all by dictation.
When I am done dictating I would tell Dragon to press the F7 key. To see if
there were any spelling mistakes!
Window eyes at this moment is not reading back to me what I am dictating!
It is spelling everything back to me!
If somebody knows how to correct this, by making window eyes read back in
words I would appreciate that!
Well I guess that's it for now!
I will run spell-check next.
The spell check found three misspelled words! And there was a few mistakes
because of the way I said things.
Talk to you all later!

Have a nice day from, K4NKZ Jim

RE: which version of windows should I get

2015-03-01 Thread Jim Grimsby Jr. via Talk
Hello,
yes this is true, all Windows 7 users will be able to upgrade to Windows 10
free of charge.  That being said, the idea that you should get Windows 7
just because the you think it will be easier to navigate is completely not
true.  As I have said on this subject.  A number of times you can get
programs which resolve this issue if it is a problem for you.  The best
program to get to resolve these navigation issues is classic Shell.  This
will allow you to have a windows XP style start menu or a Windows 7 style
start menu, and it will allow you to take advantage of all the new features
of Windows 8.1.  If you get a program called old new Explorer.  It will
allow you to turn off the ribbon and to make a number of tweaks to the
Windows Explorer that will make it look and feel like the Windows 7 Windows
Explorer.  Thus you will have all of the new features of Windows Explorer,
and the interface you are familiar with and comfortable with.  You will also
be able to take advantage of Windows universal apps.  One good example of
this is Facebook, which is completely accessible.  You will also have
greater stability, greater security better built-in text-to-speech and a
number of other features.  The new user interface should not be a deterrent,
because as I said these issues are quite easy to resolve if necessary.
I hope this helps, and think you for reading.

My opinion If you are use to XP, you might want to get Windows 7 if you 
can find it. It is easier to navigate  than Win 8.1. And it is my
understanding that all Wind 7 and Win 8.1 owners will get a free upgrade to
Win 10 within the first year. There will be support for Win 7 through 2020.

 Hi Bud: I run Windows 8.1 and WindowEyes 8.4 I think and can get around ok
 for the most part.
 This combo is a far cry from the ease and stability Windows XP, never used
 Windows 7 so cant speak to that combo.
 That said it works for the most part but then Windows 10 is coming out 
 soon.
 It is tough to suggest something in the interm between Operating system

Rod,
The one with the lag is a Win 8.1 machine versus my Win 7 work laptop, and I
wondered that too initially.  Seems odd to me that it would also be showing
that slight lag even in the Window Eyes Control Panel on both machines, but
that might show my ignorance at the impact an OS can have.

Hi Robin,

I'm wondering if you're running the same OS on both, or perhaps Windows 8 or
8.1 on one.
I wouldn't be surprised if the Windows 8 has the lag, and there are screen
transitions which may slow things down and so they should be disabled.
I have only Windows 7 and so I don't know how to guide you, but these
certainly could have an effect, as I recall.

All, When a got my new home laptop a while ago, I noticed that it felt like
there was the slightest lag of WE voicing things.  I'm sitting here today
working from home and have my work laptop next to my home laptop and just
tried a test.  I opened the WE control panel on both and arrowed down
through the tree view.  I can hit the down arrow at the exact same time and
there is a slight delay on my home PC.  It's really only a slight delay, but
I know others on here appreciate how that can feel like a lot as your are
arrowing and typing and wanting the information from WE more quickly.

I'm using the same voice and rate on Dectalk Access for WE synthesizer
option on both and I don't think I'm sophisticated enough to have changed
some other setting that would have created this delay.  Any suggestions from
others who've experienced this?   Could it be sound card related?

Subject: Re: which version of windows should I get

Well, for your information, Windows 9 simply does not work at all. 
Reason? It does not exist. Microsoft lost their abacus when they were to
release the next version after Windows 8.1, and hence found it much easier
to start from afresh, which means Windows 10.

Smiles.

Just wanted to clarify that one point. If you ever can get a Win7, I would
much recommend that - over the 8-series. I had so much trouble with both
Win8 and 8.1, that I parked that whole computer altogether. 
Admittedly, that was with an earlier version of the screen reader as well,
so things seemingly have got much better as time moved on. But the 8-series
do have their learning curve, and even sighted people complained enough to
have Microsoft partially change their mind. It all depends on whether you
want to pick up on that curve, or if you want to go with something that is
more in line with what you have been used to. 
Besides, according to what I hear and read, the Win10 interface may
partially take you one step back to the feel of Win7. Since it is going to
be released in the not too far off future, maybe no need to hazzle around
learning the steep curve of Win8, only to find yourself having to go back to
a more familiar touch when Win10 is hitting the market. Just some thoughts.

RE: Is Control-Tab a WE Command-

2015-02-17 Thread Jim Grimsby Jr. via Talk
Actually this is a windows command.  It works in any place where tabs are
found.  It does in fact work with window-eyes.  The reading of tabs how-ever
when this command is used it less then optimal.  I have reported this
problem to gw micro now the window-eyes team in the past. What should happen
when this key is pressed is as follows.  First the name of the new tab that
is active should be read, then the name of the focused object should be
read.  What happens is the name of the focused object is usualy read not the
name of the tab giving the user no indecation that the tab has changed.
Extra features that should be considered.  While in a window with tabs
control  1 threw  0 should be able to move from tab 1 threw tab 10 if there
are that many.  Control  ` should move the user to the page tab list to
quickly review the tab list.  These changes do not need to be maid to
window-eyes it self.  It could be done in the windows inhanced app. 
Note as I said I have reported this in the past with these recommendations.
To date nothing has been done about them.

Subject: Is Control-Tab a WE Command-

Hi: I just spent some time in the WE doc but couldn't find mention of this
key combo in a few diferent headings.

This is the standard Windows hot key combo for reading through a standard
TabList.

It works in another screen reader but I havent gotten it to work in WE so
far.

I was guessing the Control-tab key may be a WE hot key but couldn't find it,
at least not so far, in the WE docs after going through the list of we hot
keys, looking under several likely topic Titles and trying a search on
control-tab.

Do you know if this is a WE hot key since it is, or at least was,  a
standard Windows hot Key but doesn't seem to work in WE?

At least it was listed in the quick search on google for windows hot keys I
just performed - let me know if this is not the case if you know.

What category would it be listed under if I want to turn it off in WE if not
important?

I designed a rather complex form using the Tab Control in Visual Studio and
really don't want to slog through the labels in production mode using the
mouse to open the various tabs nor have to use another reader on this page
nor completely ReDesign and ReProgram what is a nice layout.

If I can get the Windows Hot key to work, control-tab, I should be able to
tab through the tab list properly me thinks.
