I don't use SkypeWatch myself, which is why I never noticed this before, but...
Somewhere between 4.1 and the 4.2 beta release, there was apparently a change in the systray alerts for sign ins and sign outs. There is no longer any MSAA text in those. As a result, there is nothing for JAWS or any other screen reader to announce for those, and I am not able to provide the SkypeWatch announcements for sign ins and sign outs in the released Skype 4.2 beta. This is an issue that Skype would have to fix, so I welcome people to contact them about it. Note that SkypeWatch is not entirely dead in Skype 4.2 beta: It should still announce incoming calls and changes in your Skype status. Sorry for the bad news, but unless I missed something, there's nothing to do but get Skype to address this one. -- Doug Lee [email protected] http://www.dlee.org SSB BART Group [email protected] http://www.ssbbartgroup.com "When there is no enemy within, the enemies outside cannot hurt you." --African Proverb Thanks for posting to the skype english list.
