I hope this is an appropriate topic. I am trying to sign up for Instacart for my food shopping needs. The website is slow and does not work all that well with JAWS. I thought the problem was my system until I tried it at work with the same result. Any thoughts? At home, I am on JAWS 17 and

Robin, no question, JAWS has made what used to be a simple task difficult, and I have no idea why. It would help if you explained exactly what you want to do. Meanwhile, first, you can select "punctuation" in the JAWS quick settings dialog. I realize this isn't exactly customizing punctuation,

Hi Roger. Yes, this was my conclusion as well. I personally feel this particular implementation of keyboard shortcuts is great, and spoke very enthusiastically about them to the developers. Now I realise I should probably have done so with more caution. They are great, but they may not work for

[JAWS-Users] Trouble with Keyboard Echo

2018-03-02 Thread Matthew Chao
Hi, Folks. How do I get keyboard echo back to only echo words? For some reason, when I updated to JAWS 2018.1802.7a, all I hear when I type are punctuations, not the words. I'm also new to JAWS, and going through several menus and/or keystrokes is frustrating to say the least. Any help

Re: [JAWS-Users] keyboard shortcuts on webpages not working

Some web accessibility professionals discourage using keyboard shortcuts because browsers, screen readers and operating systems interpret them in different ways. My personal belief is to keep them there, but to make sure that there are other ways of choosing the options if this is possible. On

Yes, but we are talking about VLC player random function, not winamp. I prefer randomising the playlist in winamp with alt-shift-r rather than using shuffle mode. The reason is that when using shuffle it's impossible to tell what song has just played after it's moved on to the next one.
