Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws 17 beta typing echo

2015-10-22 Thread Maria Campbell
Sounds like a repair or reinstall is in order if you have it set for 
echo in the start up wizard and it doesn't work.

Hi,
Is it only my problem or did somebody hat the same?
When I am using beta of jf 17, it will not tell me the comma, period, space
etc. but some characters, which aren't identical in English or Czech.
How is jaws saying the punctuation's for you? If correct says space-bar,
period, comma, exclaim I will report as a bug.

Hi.

My experience with jaws 17 have been such that I'm glad this is still a 
public beta only. Try using 17 with a touch screen on a tablet computer, 
my atom 1.8ghz quad core asus t100 is sluggish in quite a few places not 
the least of which is skype for desktop. Try moving up and down your 
contacts, if you're lucky JAWS will only be sluggish and keep talking 
and focusing new items for several seconds after you take the finger off 
the screen, but I've had plenty of jaws crash and restart, or jaws 
shutdowns happen to me, the shutdowns are nasty because I have to 
connect the keyboard dock long enough to use buttons to start jaws again.

While my t100 isn't exactly a speed demon, it does actually run pretty 
good, and it did ok with jaws 16. I think this ought to be fixable given 
that fact. I don't know if it has anything to do with extra code in use 
to play the tick sounds when touching no man's land or what.

With the touch keyboard, if you put it in numbers mode and slide a 
finger over to the number pad, you get extreme sluggishness or crash and 
hopefully restarts of jaws. I duplicated this numerous times with my 
asus t100 running windows 10 (see specs above) and my 3ghz core i7 
hozwell lenovo yoga 2 pro with 8gb ram running windows 8.1.

Also, the touch keyboard is pretty dangerous on the t100 while trying to 
type someone a skype chat, because if you accidentally touch above the 
keyboard jaws will at least freeze temporarily, if not just crash and 
again HOPEFULLY restart. I say hopefully there because it doesn't always 
start up again, it just closes and you have to connect a keyboard or go 
back into laptop mode long enough to press the buttons you need to start 
jaws again.

The touch keyboard is a lot better, but the touch screen support right 
now feels really gimmicky, 16 didn't have as many touch screen usability 
features but it is far more responsive and stable.

My last issue is with smart navigation. If you have a page that uses a 
list of links but they're all laid out horizontally on screen even 
though they are indeed an html list, jaws insists on putting them in a 
vertical layout. You can reproduce this on freedomscientific.com near 
the top of the page with the navigation menu that contains items like 
home, products, services, downloads, support, dealer locator and shop. 
According to the jaws cursor (yes I really mean the jaws cursor), this 
is a horizontal list, a bar of links that span the top of the website, 
kind of looks like a menu bar. With the virtual pc cursor while you've 
got smart navigation turned on, this appears to be a vertical list.

I have reported all of these concerns to fs via the 17 beta report form, 
but as that form is crazily short on the edit boxes limiting the input 
to too few characters to say all that I have to say, I wondered if there 
was a chance I'd get Erick's or someone's attention on here, especially 
if anyone else wants to confirm my findings, perhaps by duplicating my 
problem reports via the beta report form at least.

I think the touch screen issues are likely fixable as jaws 16 is much 
better. Oh also, is anyone else finding web browsing to be more sluggish 
in internet explorer 11? Smart navigation is of course on, for elements 
and tables.
