Re: [JAWS-Users] Buttons [My Guess]
Howdy Cheddah, As you noticed, none of the notes I posted were made by me, but made by others. I personally have never tried to label a button, but in case I do ever attempt that task, I'll follow the same notes I posted & see what happens! LOL Take care. Mike. Go Dodgers! Sennt from my iBarstool. Arguing with a woman is like reading a software license agreement.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Buttons [My Guess]
Hi Steve & Shannon, Below are a few notes that might get you pointed in the direction you wanted to go: From: Carlos While the button/control you want to label has focus, press Insert+F2 and select "Prompt Create" Carlos From: Kimsan Hmm, I didn't see prompt create after pressing insert f2. Custom labels will do the trick, and lable links and buttons. I would focus on the button, CTRL insert tab, then fill out the information and click ok/save or whatever the button is. I'm thinking it will be an ok button. Kimsan Song From: Carlos They are similar options. In a browser, you will see an item named "Custom Label" for labeling HTML controls. In an application, you would use "Prompt Create" If your browser has focus, you will not see the "Prompt Create" option in the list since it is used for labeling controls in an application.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Buttons [My Guess]
I have a feeling Steve may be talking about buttons in software like Avast, where you hear the JAWS cursor say, "button," but nothing else is spoken. That's why I got rid of Avast. I could never figure out which button was which. Now, if I'm correct with my assumption, I don't think JAWS can automatically label buttons like it does graphics. So I guess Steve would have to get sighted assistance with labeling buttons. That's my uneducated guess. But I'm always willing to learn something new each day.
