in 3.8 the dial did not automatically apear you have to activate it with a hot key in 4.1 when you make a call to a lanline or mobile and skype seees that the dial pad will auto apear right in front of you make sure you have the latest 4.1 out there and btw if you loose the dial pad make sure your conversation is selected in live conversations, and tab around a few times if jaws says dial pad then the dial pad in still active sometimes you have to click the button that says dial pad for this to happen because it can hide itself ----- Original Message ----- From: "Darrell Shandrow" <[email protected]> To: <skypeenglish at emissives.com> Sent: Wednesday, July 15, 2009 10:21 PM Subject: [Skypeenglish] Quick way to access Skype 4.1 dialpad to generateDTMF tones?
