Re: Solution found to the new line announcement problem (was) Further to the virtical tab discussion
Brian,
Unless you have certain nondisplay characters turned on within Word (like paragraph marks), you probably won't experience the newline problem.
When writing and proofing documents, I often need to know where such marks occur which is why I have them turned on to begin with. I think this why my issue is somewhat rare.

Hi All,
The vertical tab announcements are now gone thanks to the excellent instructions previously posted. But now I would like to rid myself of the "new line" announcement at the termination of every single line that doesn't terminate with a paragraph symbol.
Before someone suggests that I turn off announcement of symbols, I am a writer and I need to hear where certain symbols occur like the paragraph symbol so turning everything off isn't a good option.
I tried using the same steps that worked for the vertical tab problem, substituting a \n which is the ascii symbol for new line, but it didn't work.
Does anyone have any other suggestions?
Thanks, Kimber

Re: Solution found to the new line announcement problem (was) Further to the virtical tab discussion
Kimber, Please do share if you reproduce them. I have never had JAWS announce "new line" with normally "flowed" text in MS-Word up through Word 2013. Of course, I've never heard JAWS announce a Vertical Tab, either, and have been working with JAWS for a long time now. These behaviors seem recent, and appear to possibly be linked to changes in how Word is working and/or how JAWS is working with it. -- Brian

Re: Further to the virtical tab discussion
Kimber, Give "Next Line," U+0085 a try. Since typing an Enter gives a paragraph mark I can't figure out what you would be getting a "new line" from, since the text in Word just flows to the next line and there is no character that I know of inserted to cause that behavior. -- Brian

Yes, the vertical bar, often referred to as a pipe as well if you're around programmers, is a single character that's generally located just above your Enter key on the keyboard and produced by hitting the Shift key plus what would normally be a backslash
if not "shifted." If you ever hear someone refer to pipe when reading something as literally as possible they're referring to that vertical bar.
This is very commonly used as a "chunk separator" in a single line of text.

Re: How To Stop Jaws From Saying "Vertical Tab"
I am assuming the vertical tab is on a web page or an e-mail. When you are working with G-mail and reading line by line, you hear reply vertical bar, forward,
vertical bar, print, vertical bar. It is actually a small bar that is no more than ¼ inches long running top to bottom. I have never tried to stop JAWS from speaking the vertical bar because I don’t know if you can.

Tom,
If you've got an "old word" file where it's announced, and a "new word" file where it's announced, I'll happily have a look to see what's up. If it's very easy for you to tell me the phrase that precedes "vertical tab" that would make things a bit
faster for me, but it's not necessary.

Re: How To Stop Jaws From Saying "Vertical Tab"
Bill White <billwhite92701@...>
Incidentally, Carolyn, if you're using a desktop computer with the keyboard in Desktop Layout, Insert 6, 7, 8, 9, and 0 are JAWS commands. Insert plus 6 gives you the Settings Center, Insert plus 7 gives you Window Classes, Insert plus 8 gives you the Keyboard Manager, Insert plus 9 gives you Frame Viewer, and Insert plus 0 gives you Script Manager.
These commands won't do anything wrong, they just open up tools in JAWS. Bill White billwhite92701@dslextreme.com

Try:

Hello, everyone.
As you may recall, I'm working to get Office 365 up and running on a fairly new Windows 7 laptop. I am using the latest build of Jaws 17.
I have noticed that in many Outlook 2016 e-mails, and especially in Microsoft Word documents, Jaws keeps saying "vertical tab", as I navigate whatever it is I'm reading.
I don't recall encountering this behavior in the previous versions of Outlook and Word that I have used.
How can I get Jaws to stop reading the vertical tabs, whatever they are?
As I'm sure yu can imagine, this vertical tab designation is very distracting.

Bill White set me straight regarding step 4 of your instructions.
I actually wrote the words vertical tab in the add edit field that came up in the Jaws dictionary, and put a space in the replacement field. But, still no luck.
I think this is because the vertical tab is some sort of a computer character.
Thanks to Bill for the clarification.

Try:
1. Insert-F2 for JAWS Manager. 2. D for dictionary. 3. Control-Shift-D for default in all programs. 4. Write vertical tab. 5. Next tab hit a Spacebar. 6. Alt-F4, save changes and exit.

Hello, everyone.
As you may recall, I'm working to get Office 365 up and running on a fairly new Windows 7 laptop. I am using the latest build of Jaws 17.
I have noticed that in many Outlook 2016 e-mails, and especially in Microsoft Word documents, Jaws keeps saying "vertical tab", as I navigate whatever it is I'm reading.
I don't recall encountering this behavior in the previous versions of Outlook and Word that I have used.
How can I get Jaws to stop reading the vertical tabs, whatever they
are? As I'm sure yu can imagine, this vertical tab designation is very distracting.

Re: How To Stop Jaws From Saying "Vertical Tab"
Are there similar instructions on how to get Jaws not to say cell cell cell every time it moves over a cell in a table? Thanks, Matthew

Tom, Can you place the PC cursor on the symbol that is indicated by JAWS as a vertical tab? If so, place it there and bring up the JAWS Dictionary with JAWS Key d. Then press Control Shift d if you want the replacement to be in all programs. Press Spacebar on the Add Button. The symbol should appear in the Actual Word field. Then put a space in the Replacement Word field. Press Enter, Control s to save and then exit the JAWS Dictionary.

Hi, Kimber. Try entering these two entries into the dictionary. \013 and \010. These are for the linefeed and carriage return respectively, and these are the ASCII symbols which signal a new line.
I hope this helps you. Bill White billwhite92701@dslextreme.com

Before someone suggests that I turn off announcement of symbols, I am a writer and I need to hear where certain symbols occur like the paragraph symbol so turning everything off isn't a good option.
I tried using the same steps that worked for the vertical tab problem, substituting a \n which is the ascii symbol for new line, but it didn't work.
Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Hi, Tom. The character which is voicing as a vertical tab has an ASCII value of eleven.

Carolyn:
Bill White set me straight regarding step 4 of your instructions.
I actually wrote the words vertical tab in the add edit field that came up in the Jaws dictionary, and put a space in the replacement field.
But, still no luck.
I think this is because the vertical tab is some sort of a computer character.
Thanks to Bill for the clarification.

Try:
1. Insert-F2 for JAWS Manager. 2. D for dictionary. 3. Control-Shift-D for default in all programs. 4. Write vertical tab. 5. Next tab hit a Spacebar. 6. Alt-F4, save changes and exit.
I don't know if that will work since this vertical tab statement from JAWS might be from program or graphics as opposed to text, but it wouldn't hurt to see if that gave you any relief. Bye for now,
Carolyn

Hello, everyone.
As you may recall, I'm working to get Office 365 up and running on a fairly new Windows 7 laptop. I am using the latest build of Jaws 17.
I have noticed that in many Outlook 2016 e-mails, and especially in Microsoft Word documents, Jaws keeps saying "vertical tab", as I navigate whatever it is I'm reading.
I don't recall encountering this behavior in the previous versions of Outlook and Word that I have used.
How can I get Jaws to stop reading the vertical tabs, whatever they are?
As I'm sure yu can imagine, this vertical tab designation is very distracting.

Bill White <billwhite92701@...>
Hi, Mike. The only thing I would add to this post is that if
the value beginning with the backslash is not in the default dictionary under
english, and under your particular synthesizer, you may need to press the Add
button, instead of the Change button, add the \011 value in the Real Word field,
then tab to the replacement field and type the space character as the
replacement word. The other steps are valid.

Hi All,
Here are steps from another list, & this dude
that wrote the steps is 1 of the smartest computer / Jaws users I've ever come
across!
Hello Tom, The following steps should
work: 1. Press JAWS key with D to bring
up the dictionary manager. 2. Use
CTRL with Shift and D to load the default dictionary
manager. 3. Tab to the tree view
and press E for English. 4. Expand
the English option by using right arrow
key. 5. Use down arrow key and find
the appropriate synthesizer. You can also press E for Eloquence, V
for ?Vocalizer, V until you find Vocalizer Expressive,
etc. 6. Use right arrow to open the
appropriate synthesizer item. 7.
Press a backslash key until you find a backslash followed by 011. JAWS
should tell you that this equals Vertical Tab.
8. Tab to the Change button and
press spacebar. 9. In the Actual
Word field should be the \011. Tab to the Replacement Word field and
press spacebar one time. 10. Tab to OK and use
spacebar. 11. Use CTRL with S to save
changes. 12. Close the window using Alt with
F4. 13. You might or might not need to restart JAWS.
The above worked for me using a Vocalizer Expressive
profile. Take care. Brian Lee brianllee@...
Take care. Mike FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION! It comes bundled with the
software. Go Dodgers!

Tom, Can you place the PC cursor on the symbol that is
indicated by JAWS as a vertical tab? If so, place it there and bring
up the JAWS Dictionary with JAWS Key d. Then press Control Shift d
if you want the replacement to be in all programs. Press Spacebar on
the Add Button. The symbol should appear in the Actual Word
field. Then put a space in the Replacement Word field. Press Enter,
Control s to save and then exit the JAWS Dictionary.
