Re: Suggestions for the next version of Window-Eyes
The suggestion is that window-eyes auto read, every time the window(s) changes, the "title" of the window. 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. At 05:46 PM 11/28/2015, you wrote: Hi AI Squared staff. Sky here.

RE: Suggestions for the next version of Window-Eyes
Yes but the point here is he wants smart reading of message boxes and dialog. This means that the screen reader read the static text relating to the edit box or button without reading the whole thing. This has been something I have asked for in the past. -Original Message- From: Talk [mailto:talk-bounces+jgrimsby=roadrunner@lists.window-eyes.com] On Behalf Of Tom Kingston via Talk Sent: Saturday, November 28, 2015 6:11 PM To: Sky Mundell <s...@shaw.ca>; Window-Eyes Discussion List <talk@lists.window-eyes.com> Subject: Re: Suggestions for the next version of Window-Eyes Sky, Open the WE control panel.

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 on a number of ocations. -Original Message- From: Talk [mailto:talk-bounces+jgrimsby=roadrunner@lists.window-eyes.com] On Behalf Of Curtis Delzer via Talk Sent: Monday, November 30, 2015 1:29 PM To: Window-Eyes Discussion List <talk@lists.window-eyes.com> Subject: Re: Suggestions for the next version of Window-Eyes The suggestion is that window-eyes auto read, every time the window(s) changes, the "title" of the window.

Suggestions for the next version of Window-Eyes
Hi AI Squared staff. Sky here. I have a suggestion for the next version of Window-Eyes. In other screen readers, like JAWS, NVDA, and System Access, if I open up a dialog box, JAWS will read the dialog box, but not the entire contents. For example, when I go into the run dialog box, JAWS, NVDA, and System Access will say, "Run. Type the name of the folder, document, or internet resource, and windows will open it for you. Followed by open combo edit. In Window-Eyes, not only will it read the run information, but it will read the buttons in tab order. Why is it doing that?
