Re: [JAWS-Users] Downloading Audio Files with Chrome
Hi Holger, Actually, I didn't find this method to be a big deal, it is just the difference in browsers. You don't typically get a run option unless you are downloading a .exe file. Depending on how the author of the website has coded the pages even in Internet Explorer sometimes you have to go to the context menu and choose, "save target as" in order to get what you want. I can think of many other situations that require more work to accomplish a simple task, this one is just a walk in the park! HTH, Rick Justice "Tomorrow's another day, another way!"

[JAWS-Users] Help with creating fillable forms in Word 2010
Fernando Gregoire wrote, in part: " Fortunately Word still has the option, in the Developer tab together with the new content controls, a split button called Legacy Control which allows you to insert a form field like the ones available in Word 2003 and earlier, which are backward compatible and more accessible with the keyboard and JAWS. " It's actually "Legacy Tools," but your central point still stands. I customize the ribbon to include the developer tab, if you need assistance with this it needs to be a message of its own. One can then get to the insert function for the various types of form fields with keyboard shortcuts, all of which start with ALT+L to throw focus to the Developer Tab, followed by N for the Legacy Controls area of the Controls Group, followed by one of the following: E for a text field H for a checkbox C for a dropdown form field (AKA a Combo Box) F for frame S for form field shading R for Reset form fields Remember, you need to be creating a Microsoft Word document template, a dotx file, not a docx regular document, and that when you are finished you will want to Protect the form from editing *except* for those fields where you want the end user to be able to type in data. You do that via ALT+L (Developer Ribbon), PE (Protect Item), then, under the "Editing Restrictions" section of the protection dialog check the checkbox for "Allow only this type of editing" in the document and selecting "Filling In Forms" from the associated dropdown associated with the checkbox, then hitting the "Yes, start enforcing protection" button. I far prefer the legacy controls to the current ones. Do keep in mind that as text fields get filled in the content will shift what's in the remainder of the form. As a result, I don't ever put text fields of indeterminate size next to one another, but on completely separate lines.

Re: [JAWS-Users] read alternate text using Jaws
Hi There Not sure whether you've received a reply to this; Jaws treats the picture as an object. Press Control Shift O to bring up the list of objects then find your picture in the list and press Enter. This selects the object. If Jaws still doesn't read the alt text, at least having the object selected will give you more options for dealing with it. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Dang Manh Cuong Sent: Wednesday, 16 May 2018 4:22 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] read alternate text using Jaws To all listers When using Jaws to read word document that included picture with alternate text, can blind people read the alternate text without turning navigation quick keys on?

Re: [JAWS-Users] Crome help
Hi Holger! I have the same problem in Chrome where the player just starts playing the content and does not give me a choice to download. I do that in Edge. I hope for an answer for this likewise.

I can’t wait to see if anyone out there, can answer this one for us LOL! Take care, Holger!
