Hi Marvin, You're post influenced me to cite a post I found last week, which, to be honest, I've been reluctant to share, but which I really enjoyed finding, by accident. It demonstrates the fluidity of life, in general, as well as that of the screen reader sphere, in particular. I hope you and others on the list enjoy it as much as I do, each time I return to and read it.

In WE it was quite easy to use the mouse move by clip commands to find the graphics to label yourself. It also has a feature to pass the mouse over graphics to pop up tool tips to auto label those graphics. You can label graphics in Jaws but I have no clue how to go about doing it. Since VFO now owns WE it would be nice to think that they would look at it carefully to find some of the good Ideas that went into WE. However as of now there seems to be no evidence that this might happen. It seems that in the FS world that only good ideas come from inside the bubble. Over time I'd love to be proven wrong. I'm not holding my breath. There's really nothing reciprocal about this situation. It's up to us to figure things out. I've found that Jaws and Thunderbird don't work well for me. I have tried to adjust some Jaws settings to make it work better without success. I'd like to figure out what I need to do to use Jaws with TB. WE crashes TB on my system while NVDA seems to work like a champ. Try NVDA with WLM and see if you can get it to work more to your liking. For me it's easier to work with all three screen readers than it is to figure out some things in Jaws. We all need to do what we have to do because it's really up to us to get what we want done. -- On 6/11/2017 8:45 AM, Russ Kiehne via Talk wrote: > I just wish all of the graphics in windows live mail were labled.
