Re: WE and Office 2016
Hi Steve, I have been playing around with Word and labels with no success. One thing I did notice is that WE would not speak when I tried to paste text into the box. I put an address in WordPad and copied it to the clipboard and tried to paste it into the box. It would not speeak. The box also said nothing when trying to navigate it. It would seem to me that if the text did not paste, the box should have said blank as I moved around in it. I think I will try contacting Microsoft to let them see if they can help me. I will let you know what they say. Carol On 1/24/2018 10:37 AM, Steve Jacobson via Talk wrote: Carol, I wonder if this is part of the old Microsoft bug that affected envelope addressing for years.

Microsoft might populate the "to" field with the selected address, although you might not be able to determine that until you print the label if this is left over from the old bug. This was the case with the envelope addressing dialog. You probably would not need to copy and paste, it happens automatically if this works similarly. Don't get me wrong, you shouldn't have to do it this way, it should work and we need to figure out why it isn't working, whether it is Window-Eyes or a Microsoft bug.

you have to define it yourself in the jaws desktop icon. open a context menu on the icon, choose properties. then go to the shortcut edit box and use j. this will define the control alt j key for the shortcut. keep in mind though., that you will have to define different key combonations for each version of jaws you have installed. they can not all use the same shortcut keys. window eyes is the same way. the shortcut keys are in the window eyes icon. -Original Message- From: Bryan Peterson via Talk Sent: Wednesday, January 24, 2018 9:30 PM To: talk@lists.window-eyes.com Cc: Bryan Peterson Subject: Hot key for starting JAWS?

Re: Firefox 58.0 release overview
Thanks for the link. Yes, they sure are aware of the screen reader issues - and have been so ever since they started the whole 57+ cycle. What they don't tell in the article you linked, is why they did not just fix it right away, when they were to introduce version 58. Sounds somehow like the Microsoft thing, where they took a pretty long time to have anything for a fix, in the Edge browser issue. Being aware of a thing, does not automate you will ever have a fix of it. Well, let us keep positive. They are aware of the issues, and hope to fix them. Now, what kind of issues is it they will fix? NVDA, and I don't know Jaws, have had certain issues with modern versions of Firefox. But they have still been able to read SOMETHING off the screen. WinEyes users, on the other hand, have been able to read absolutely nothing from the screen produced by version 57+. Even when we seemed to have found a workaround, it took them less than a week to break even that one, with a new "update". So when comes to them fixing things in a way that WinEyes users again can go back to the latest ordinary version of Firefox, I would not keep my breath - really. Chances are high, the issues they are going to fix, will be the ones experienced by NVDA and Jaws. For WinEyes users, currently you have to use the ESR version of the Firefox - which most currently is at version 52.6. It updated here yesterday, and still runs nicely with the screen reader. Let's just hope, they don't break anything there, before they have fixed everything in the main version. Again, I do intend no negativity here, but wanted to keep things in perspective.

Re: WE and Office 2016
Hi Steve, I treated making labels the same as I would have in Word 2007. I pasted the address I needed to make the label for into the open word document. I then put the person's name in the line above the address. I then selected all and copied it to the clipboard. Next, I pressed alt-m, l to open the mailings and label group. Normally, the address shows up in the address box. It was not there, so I pasted it in. It was still not readable. I then went to options and made sure the correct label format was selected and entered on OK, in case there was a problem with the label size. The label was the correct one. The information was still not in the address box. I erased the data from the address box and then went back to the Word document where I copied the information again and went back to the labels settings again. The information did not appear in the box automatically, so I pressed ctrl-shift-w to read the screen contents. The information was not there, either. I pasted it into the box again and pressed ctrl-shift-w again and the data still did not appear. This time, I printed it out anyway. The label printed, but was not spoken.

Would you give exact steps to get where you are getting? I'd like to figure out if this is a Microsoft bug. As a work-around, you might be able to type the address in a document and then select it. Microsoft might populate the "to" field with the selected address, although you might not be able to determine that until you print the label if this is left over from the old bug. This was the case with the envelope addressing dialog. You probably would not need to copy and paste, it happens automatically if this works similarly. Don't get me wrong, you shouldn't have to do it this way, it should work and we need to figure out why it isn't working, whether it is Window-Eyes or a Microsoft bug.

I can go to the settings and choose my wanted label. I can choose which label prints and where it is on the page. The problem is that I can not get WE to read the information in the to label box. It simply does not speak and the box does not show up with the mouse keys. The mouse keys report everything else I need except for the address. Are there settings I need to change in Window-Eyes for Word 2016? Thanks.
