Hi Joseph and Ann,

I don't think the issue that Jaws 2019 does not read the emojis, for me it reads them just fine when I arrow around, it only does not announce anything at all when you open the emoji panel. Ann, I would maybe call Jaws support, I am on the Jaws beta list and nobody has reported that Jaws doesn't read the emoji panel, but I did file a bug report about Jaws not saying something like "Emoji panel open" when you press Windows Key + Period or Semi Colon.

Hi,
If it is what I think is happening, then it isn't JAWS at all - it might be Windows 10 Version 1903, and last time I heard from another forum, this problem was reported to Vispero.
Cheers,
Joseph

Mine works fine, I just now tested it with JAWS 2019. Try pressing down arrow instead of left/right arrow. Up/down travel inside the category.

Hi,


With the latest update to Jaws, I can now no longer read the Windows
emoji panel. It apparently does pop up, and I can arrow around and
pres Enter to insert emojis, but Jaws speaks nothing at all now.


Is there a fix for this
