Hi Marc its Michael hear if you turn off the tool tips does that afect any
other info that We reads.
Such as if you want to eject a USB drive from the computer.
And will you still get the messages pop up when programs are alerting you to
things.
Cheers Michael.

Klaus,
I am going to go out on a limb and guess that one of the places you hear
this information is when navigating among the icons on your Desktop. If this
is the case, Window-Eyes is reading the text in the pop up tooltips that are
displayed on the screen for the selected item. This is the default behavior
of Window-Eyes and I have worked with others who prefer to turn this setting
off to cut down on the verbosity. Here are the steps to turn this option
off:
1. Open Window-Eyes Control panel (Control-Backslash)
2. Make sure Show Advanced Options in checked in the Help menu (Alt-H, V)
3. In the Settings tree, open General then Other (press G, Right Arrow,
press O)
4. Navigate to the options area with F6
5. Move focus to the Speak Tooltips Global combo box using Tab
6. Select Off (1 of 3) in the combo box using the Arrow keys
7. Activate the Save Settings button (Tab to the button and press Spacebar)
Best,
Marc

Hello,
Windoweyes speaks the selected ikon – as it should be – but in addition it
speaks file location and date of last change which is disturbing.
How do I get this switched off?
Klaus
