moderated Re: Was table row number
fenderwal@...
Hi, everyone.
Tom, thanks for sharing your find. I had desperately wanted to
shut off table cell coordinates, because I think screen readers can be too
informative at times. A Window-Eyes user for years and years, I was able to use
the table header row hot key, Control-Shift-H, to choose whichever option most
effectively gave me table information.
I changed the subject line in reply because I want to know,
does anyone know a JAWS keystroke combination that allows a user to rotor
between table header options the way Window-Eyes does?
Thank you for your
help,
Lou

A friend suggested to go into quick settings of the browser, go to tables and check if cell co-ordinates was turned on. Somehow the recent update had turned the setting off and turning it on solved the problem.

Hold down control plus alt and use the arrow keys and it reads the row and collum number of each roll when moving through a table

Hi George,
I need the row number to be spoken by Jaws when arrowing slowly up the table column. If arrowing up at a normal speed then Jaws skips the row announcement and just reads the cell contents which is the desired result.
Currently, using the Jaws 2020 version released in the past week, Jaws does not announce any row number regardless of the arrowing speed. The row announcement was spoken under the final 2019 version as well as the 2020 version released in late October. I made the settings in the just released version the same as the settings in the 2019 version but this had no effect. That is, after making sure the settings relating to “default application” and saved with shift control d.
After trying numerous settings, I have come to the conclusion that a bug has crept into the latest 2020 Jaws update.
I’ll contact F S and make a report early in the new year.
Cheers Tom

Thanks for your reply and instructions George.
I have tried all of the steps on numerous occasions but still cannot get Jaws to read the row position in a table while using the latest version released only a few days ago.
However, if I change to the final copy of Jaws 19 then the row number is spoken as normal. It appears to me that something has been broken in the latest 2020 version.

Thanks for your reply George but cannot locate “internet” under the users heading or anywhere else for that matter.
Tables are mentioned under navigation but changing settings here does not seem to make any difference as far as I can tell.

Hi,
Prior to installing the latest Jaws 64 bit update a few days ago, Jaws would read the row position in a web based table as I arrowed up the column but since the update, Jaws no longer gives this information.
Can someone inform me which settings need to be changed so once more Jaws can give this info?
Thanks
Tom
