Introduction

Dear all, Just a quick message to say that I am a new user to the list. I Have just started to try out Window Eyes, I am currently a JAWS user but would like to keep my options open. I Have one particular application at the moment which is non-standard in some ways and I need to script it if pos

Re: Introduction

Hello Steve, good that you are trying it out. I'm sure that scripts (or apps as they are called in Window-Eyes) can be written for the non standard programme. In fact, it would be a lot easier than Jaws, as Window-Eyes will work with programming languages that support com plus automation, whi

After listening to these webinars, is my understanding correct, I can use Narrator after the first reboot to complete the upgrade? -Original Message- From: Tom Kingston via Talk Sent: Monday, June 06, 2016 7:26 AM To: Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: Re: Question about upgrading to

RE: Question about upgrading to windows 10

It is usually after the second reboot, but yes that is correct. Windows-Enter will enable/disable Narrator, and you can use CPS+Left and CAPS+Right to review the contents of each screen. Steve -Original Message- From: Talk [mailto:talk-bounces+sclower=aisquared@lists.window-eyes.com

F8 and BECKY!

Hi. Using WE 9.4, Win 10 and latest BECKY!. I have some emails where I am able to use F8 to block and copy text from the body of an email in my INCOX. On other INBOX emails, f8 does not work. On those emails I have tried to toggle browse mode using control shift a, but hear "browse mode not av

RE: F8 and BECKY!

In those emails the IE engine isn't used so browse mode4 isn't needed. Just use ctrl-shift-arrow keys to select. I went into the display and turned off html messages so they all don't use browse mode. Ai Squared Support Ai Squared 725 Airport North Office Park Fort Wayne, IN 46825 (802) 362-361

Re: F8 and BECKY!

I use the clipboard. Go to the line where you want to start copying and hit the home key for beginning of line. Then use the shift key and down arrow until you reach the line where you want to stop. Then hit c control plus c to copy. It works for me. It's a bit of a pain, but is the only wa

RE: F8 and BECKY!

Martha, I don't know of any cases where Browse Mode works in Becky. That's one of the reasons I like it for email, although there are some advantages to Browse Mode sometimes. One can just treat the text of an email just as one selects text in most applications. Am I not understanding the issue

Re: F8 and BECKY!

Steve, you can read html messages in browse mode if you like it. Go to tools, general setup and the message view tabcontrol. Shift tab here to: html view In your case it is set to: convert to plain text I have set it the same, but you can also set it to: view with IE component When opening a html

RE: Question about upgrading to windows 10

I don't know if this happens on the first reboot or not, but I started Narrator too soon. It came up talking but there weren't any other windows that one could ALT-TAB to except for Narrator and also the window that lets you press any key to see what it does. I closed Narrator and let the upg

RE: F8 and BECKY!

Thanks, I must have turned that off a long time ago. I like consistency so will leave that option turned off, but it is good to be reminded that it is there. It now makes sense why Martha sometimes could use F8 and sometimes not. Best regards, Steve Jacobson -Original Message- From: M

Re: F8 and BECKY!

Steve, I am using it the same way. When you get an html mail that is not really good readable as text, I press tab to the attachment area and open the html file there in internet explorer. You have to turn on the attach html message option in the tools, general setup menu ofcource. Regards, Marte

Hello, What I would like to see in the new windoweyes version are the following: 1. The ability to use windows speech recognition. Currently, only System access works fully with this feature of windows. 2. Also, I would like to see an easier way to get in to safe mode with windo

Re: trying to play dvd on computer

the windows media player will not play dvd disks without a third party codex driver or what ever it is called. if you have the windows media center this will, but it is not very speech friendly this is not the same as the windows media player. if you have done a clean install of windows 10 the w

Re: F8 and BECKY!

Hi, A simple way of selecting text when browse mode is not available is to use the 'select text' app. I have mine set to use F9 to begin the selection and shift F9 to end. The text between these two points is now selected and is available for manipulation. i.e. copy, delete, cut and the lik
