Hi,
My original question on this thread was how to close a programme and give focus to the desktop while using Jaws and have speech.

Upon exiting a programme like Thunderbird with alt F4, where Window-Eyes gave focus to the Desktop with speech, Jaws does not. Well, on my system anyway. The only way I can give focus to the Desktop and have speech is to to press Windows d after exiting the programme.

Pressing Windows m or Windows d does give focus to the Desktop with speech but the programme has only been minimized and not closed.

By just using alt F4, can anyone exit a programme or drive, give focus to the Desktop with Jaws talking.


Thanks
Neville.

Nk there GUYS!

I just tried both the 'windows+d as well as the 'windows+m' and they both minimized the current program. So I guess you both are correct! Just thought I would let you know<SMILE!>. Catch Ya Later! de <KF8LT><Jim>.

I was taught that it was exactly the opposite of what you say. That windows key minimizes things when you go to the desktop, and windows key doesn't. Pam.

the correct key is windows d. not windows m. windows m will not minimize things like dialog boxes that may be opened in a program. windows d will minimize
everything.

Hi,
Just authorized the latest copy of Jaws and very much a learner.

When exiting a programme, say Thundrbird, or exiting a drive for the Desktop, ,after pressing alt F4 Jaws goes quiet. The pressing of Windows d once or twice is required to place focus back on the Desktop.

Is this annoying behaviour normal for Jaws or do I need to change some setting somewhere? If so, which setting and where?


Thanks
Neville.
