Hi, Bonnie. In JAWS 2021,

1. Press JAWS key plus J to open JAWS menu,

2. Press ENTER on Options.

3. Press ENTER on Basics.

4. TAB seven times to get to Keyboard Layout.

5. Down Arrow once to get to Laptop Keyboard Layout.

6. TAB twice to get to OK, and press ENTER.

7. Your Keyboard Layout should now be on Laptop Layout.

Hi again everyone,

Fusion is a combination of jaws and Zoom text. I have a laptop that does not have a numb pad. When I worked with IT, he gave me a few keystrokes and suddenly I was at the place to change the layout from desktop to laptop. When the layout is changed, then the caps lock key works as the jaws key. However, right now, the setting has apparently reverted back to desktop, and I cannot remember the keystrokes he used to get me to that setting.I have gone over and over the interface, I have tried to use the help topics and Google. No luck. It looks to me like the help topics only refer to Zoom text for some reason, even though fusion is supposed to be a combination of

It looks to me like the help topics only refer to zoom text for some reason, even though fusion is supposed to be a combination of jaws and Zoom text. Help has no reference to jaws, at least in my fusion 2021 version. That’s why I’m hoping someone can give me the keystrokes that I need without waiting until Monday to talk to IT. Appreciate any help you can offer. Thank you!

Hi again, Mike. Abraham Sweiss told me that JAWS is installed with Fusion. I went and looked at the documentation, and found out that Fusion is a combination of JAWS and ZoomText.

Hi Bill,

 

Oh okay, I was under the impression that Jaws and Fusion worked together.


Stay safe and take care.  Mike.

Hi, Mike. Bonnie isn't running JAWS. She's running Fusion.

Hi Bonnie,

 

What will help in giving instructions to change the keyboared layout is, are you running Jaws from the system tray and are you using the capslock key as the Jaws key?  Also, does your laptop have a numpad or not?

Stay safe and take care.  Mike.

Hi everyone,
I worked with Technical support last week on getting my laptop to work with fusion. We changed my keyboard configuration to laptop layout, but for some reason the setting didn’t save. I have gone over and over the interface trying to find the place to change it back to laptop layout, and I can’t find it anywhere. Help is not helping at all. Does anyone know where I can change the setting? I am using fusion 2021. Thank you! Also, for some reason help only seems to address zoom text, nothing comes up about jaws. Very strange.

Thank you, Bonnie
