Re: What's new in today's JAWS update.

Hi Tim,
Here's the whole message:
Below is the download link for both 32 & 64 Bit, the same link works for both, plus what's new in this release. Also, below What's New are some frequently asked questions with answers. 32 & 64 Bit: http://jaws2019.vfo.digital/2019.1812.49.400/64B6B33C-26C3-4AC2-852B-8CD8F79F2796/J2019.1812.49-any.exe What's new: Enhancements in JAWS 2019.1812.49 (December 2018) The following is a list of improvements made between the initial JAWS 2019 release and the December 2018 update. Improved AutoCorrect Detection in Word and Outlook With the improvements to UIA support in Office 365 versions higher than 16.0.10400, JAWS can now immediately alert you when text is AutoCorrected as you edit documents in Word or when composing emails in Outlook. By default, when you are typing in word or the body of an email and you press the SPACEBAR after a word that is AutoCorrected, JAWS plays a pop sound. In addition, if you stop typing, so that speech is not interrupted, JAWS says "Auto Correct" followed by the corrected word including the spelling. As you navigate a document, JAWS can also announce if Word has automatically corrected the current text. You can then press ALT+SHIFT+F10 to open a context menu that allows you to undo the correction, stop automatically correcting that word, or change your AutoCorrect options. For instance, if JAWS alerts you that a word you just typed was corrected but you prefer to use the word as you originally typed it, you can navigate back to the item, press ALT+SHIFT+F10, and choose "Change back." Note: When typing in the body of a new message in Outlook, JAWS can alert you when text is AutoCorrected, however, the context menu for changing AutoCorrect options is only accessible using a mouse. Microsoft currently only allows the ALT+SHIFT+F10 command to be used in Word. If you do not want to be notified when text is AutoCorrected when you press the SPACEBAR, open Quick Settings (INSERT+V) from Word and turn off the "Spelling buzzer on mistyped words" option. Note that this will also turn off the buzzer sound that is heard to indicate a misspelled word. If you do not want to have JAWS alert you to corrected words as you navigate a document, open Quick Settings from Word and turn off the AutoCorrect Detection option. Support for Co-Authoring Documents in Word 365 If a shared document is opened by multiple users, JAWS can now do the following: list of 3 items • Indicate who has the document opened using a notification message. • When another co-author navigates to the same line as the JAWS user, JAWS will indicate who is editing the same line. Pressing INSERT+UP ARROW to read the current line will also announce who is reading or editing at that location. • When a co-author actually edits the same line you are on, JAWS indicates that the text is locked for editing. If you press INSERT+UP ARROW, you will hear "Editing locked." You will also be alerted that the line is locked if you begin typing. list end Navigation Quick Keys Now Available in Google Docs Google Docs provides a number of keystrokes to help users navigate through documents more efficiently. However, these commands are difficult for users to discover and use repeatedly. For example, you can press ALT+CTRL+N followed by ALT+CTRL+H to move to the next heading which could be difficult to press multiple times for some users. To improve document navigation, you can now press INSERT+SPACEBAR followed by Q in Google Docs to activate a Quick Keys layer. Braille support must also be turned on in Google Docs for this to work correctly. Even if you do not use a braille display, Braille support provides the most accessibility information to JAWS so you have the best experience when navigating and editing documents. If Braille support is not already enabled, press ALT+SHIFT+A for the Accessibility menu, open the Settings submenu, and press ENTER on Enable Braille Support. Once the Quick Keys layer is active, the following navigation commands are available: list of 3 items • Move to the next or prior heading: H or SHIFT+H • Move to the next or prior list: L or SHIFT+L • Move to the next or prior table: T or SHIFT+T list end While this layer is active, you can continue to use the ARROW keys to review text. For example, you could press INSERT+SPACEBAR, Q, H to move to a heading, press DOWN ARROW to read a couple lines, and then press H to jump to the next heading without having to press INSERT+SPACEBAR, Q again. This layer remains active until you press ESC or any key that is not one of the supported navigation keys described above. Other Changes list of 24 items • Resolved an issue with JAWS double speaking links in PDF documents. • The Liblouis braille translator used in JAWS has been updated to version 3.7 offering improved Unified English Braille (UEB) tables, back translation improvements, and new Chinese language tables. • In the Windows 10 Fall 2018 update,JAWS now reads as expected in the Clipboard history window accessed by pressing WINDOWS Key+V. • Resolved an issue with JAWS not reading as expected in the Windows 10 Emoji panel accessed by pressing WINDOWS Key+SEMICOLON. Note that there is still a known issue where emojis will not read correctly in emails opened in Outlook 365. • Due to major changes with the UPS website, the UPS Tracking Research It lookup source has been removed as it can no longer search and retrieve results from this service. • JAWS now supports reading PDF documents in Edge. This includes navigating documents using standard reading commands, using Navigation Quick Keys such as H to move by headings, and entering Forms Mode in edit fields. • JAWS can now indicate if a form field is marked as "required" in Edge. • Addressed a reported issue where the Announce Multiline Edit option in Setting Center would not remain active in the Default settings file. • Resolved a reported issue in Notepad where JAWS was not automatically reading the prompts for the edit fields in the Find and Replace dialog box. • The JAWS setup program now displays a splash screen when it first starts and before the main installation screen appears. • Pressing INSERT+F1 twice quickly in Chrome now displays a JAWS help topic. • In addition to pressing INSERT+SPACEBAR followed by H to display the speech history in the Results Viewer, you can now press INSERT+SPACEBAR followed by CTRL+H to copy the speech history to the Clipboard for pasting into an application. The speech history includes the last 50 announcements spoken by the synthesizer. • In Winamp, you can now perform single-letter commands directly from a braille display's keyboard including the Focus Blue such as X to play, V to stop, C to pause, and B and Z to move to the next or previous item in a playlist. • When accessing documents in the online version of Word 365 using Chrome or Firefox, resolved an issue where JAWS was not reading as expected when navigating by line. • Resolved an issue with JAWS not announcing autocomplete addresses in Outlook 365. • Resolved a reported issue where JAWS would not read bulleted lists in Word formatted using Hollow Arrow bullets. • When moving in and out of lists in Word 2013 or later, JAWS now announces list level nesting, for instance, "level 1." In addition, if you press INSERT+UP ARROW to read the current line on a list item, JAWS now announces position information, for example, "2 of 5." • If an Excel spread sheet contains multiple regions, addressed a reported issue where JAWS was not reading row and column totals. • Addressed an issue with the background color not being reported correctly in Excel when using the INSERT+F keystroke. • Added a new JAWS keystroke, CTRL+INSERT+B, for use in an upcoming release of Skype. Once your version of Skype updates, performing this command activates the Back button in the active conversation so you can return to the Home screen. If this keystroke is not yet working for you, then your version of Skype has not yet updated. • The "Spelling buzzer on mistyped words" option is now available in the Quick Settings for the Windows 10 Mail app. • Resolved instances where JAWS would randomly say "JAWS visual tracking window." • Addressed a reported issue where the Language combo box in the Dictionary Manager was not showing all available languages. • Added support for Google Slides film strip tree views. list end Back to top from Enhancements Frequently Asked Questions Question: Should I remove my existing version of JAWS before installing JAWS 2019? Answer: This is not necessary and many users choose to keep multiple versions on their system. Once you find that you are no longer using the prior version, and everything is working well with the new version, you may uninstall the old version but do not remove shared components. Question: If I recently received JAWS 2018, how do I get JAWS 2019? Answer: If you purchased JAWS 2018 after September 1, 2018, you can download the JAWS 2019 release for free from the Freedom Scientific website. To verify if you are entitled to the current version, visit the SMA and Upgrade Pricing page and enter your serial number. Question: If my SMA expires, will I receive a notice? Answer: Customers in the U.S. will receive notification in the mail shortly after the JAWS 2019 release. The envelope will have a Braille label on the outside, and it will contain an SMA Renewal letter explaining the process in print and Braille. You can also renew your SMA online using the SMA and Upgrade Pricing page on the Freedom Scientific website. Back to top from Frequently Asked Questions main region end Take care. Go Rams!

Re: problem with the facebook mobile site and jfw
JM Casey
Hi.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Yes, it's broken. But it's not really an accessibility issue, is it? The best ways around this issue, until they decide to fix the mobile site, is to try something else. Facebook isn't really required to maintain m.facebook.com because hardly anyone uses it. Fixing issues with it, and they come up often, is probably on the very bottom of their priority list. I don't think it has much to do with blind people or accessibility at all. Unfortunately, too, if you have a browser or screen-reader that's behind the curve, so to speak, as JAWS 17 now is, you will have other issues to contend with as well and your experience may not be entirely satisfactory. I know this well; I used JAWS 11 or 12 for years after it was unsupported. Unfortunately it's up to us to explore other alternatives. Try the regular facebook site with NVDA, and see how that works out. Experiment with your notifications as suggested earlier and see if they will show up for that group. Make a bookmark for the group in your web browser so you can easily get to it. If you have to, ask someone in the group to personally share posts with you/on your wall. And yes, absolutely do make that report and ask them to fix the groups menu on m.facebook.com, too.

Re: JAWS2019.1812.49 Build Update, Download Links + What's New In This Release
Mike B. <mike9902@...>
Hi Don,
I don't know why it does that but, I would
imagine it's because it actually replaces the desktop icon with a new one.
You can try assigning the shortcut keystroke
from a different Jaws icon, and
I believe it will solve your disappearing keystroke problem. I assign my pin to Taskbar shortcut from this Jaws icon and never have to mess with it after a Jaws build update. Try the following: 1. Open the Start menu, navigate to the Programs folder and open it. 2. Use first letter navigation to the version of Jaws you want to assign the shortcut keystroke to. Press the letter, J, until you reach JAWS2018, for example. 3. With the preferred version of JAWS highlighted Press enter or right arrow to open, up or down arrow to, JAWS, and this is the icon that you want to use for creating the shortcut keystroke. 4. So, with the JAWS icon highlighted press, Alt + Enter, to open the JAWS properties, or press the applications key or Shift + F10 to open the context menu, and press enter on properties. 5. Assign your keystroke, tab to, Apply, press the spacebar, tab to, Okay, and press Enter. Take care. Go Rams! Sent from my iBarstool. I type out everything I want to remember.

Re: Spell check in Word 2016
Van Lant, Robin
Alt F7 takes you to each misspelled word. Issue with this method is that it opens the context menu with suggested changes in it. That often works, but you have to press Escape once or twice to get out and read the word in context if it's not obvious what word it is. I think this is a Word Command, not a JAWS one, so it probably works well for sighted users who can see the misspelled word and are ready to see the list of suggestions.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
The reason it works differently in Word from Outlook is that Outlook still uses the old dialog box interface, whereas Word has gone to a ride side pane display for spell check.

JAWS2019.1812.49 Build Update, Download Links + What's New In This Release
Mike B. <mike9902@...>
Hi All,
Below is the download link for both 32 & 64
Bit, the same link works for both, plus what's new in this release. Also,
below What's New are some frequently asked questions with answers.
32 & 64 Bit:
What's new:
Enhancements in JAWS 2019.1812.49 (December
2018)
The following is a list of improvements made
between the initial JAWS 2019 release and the December 2018 update.
Improved AutoCorrect Detection in Word and
Outlook
With the improvements to UIA support in Office
365 versions higher than 16.0.10400, JAWS can now immediately alert you
when text is AutoCorrected as you
edit documents in Word or when composing emails in Outlook. By default, when you are typing in word or the body of an email and you press the SPACEBAR after a word that is AutoCorrected, JAWS plays a pop sound. In addition, if you stop typing, so that speech is not interrupted, JAWS says "Auto Correct" followed by the corrected word including the spelling. As you navigate a document, JAWS can also
announce if Word has automatically corrected the current text. You can then
press ALT+SHIFT+F10 to open a context
menu that allows you to undo the correction, stop automatically correcting that word, or change your AutoCorrect options. For instance, if JAWS alerts you that a word you just typed was corrected but you prefer to use the word as you originally typed it, you can navigate back to the item, press ALT+SHIFT+F10, and choose "Change back." Note: When typing in the body of a new message
in Outlook, JAWS can alert you when text is AutoCorrected, however, the context
menu for changing AutoCorrect
options is only accessible using a mouse. Microsoft currently only allows the ALT+SHIFT+F10 command to be used in Word. If you do not want to be notified when text is
AutoCorrected when you press the SPACEBAR, open Quick Settings (INSERT+V) from
Word and turn off the "Spelling
buzzer on mistyped words" option. Note that this will also turn off the buzzer sound that is heard to indicate a misspelled word. If you do not want to have JAWS alert you to
corrected words as you navigate a document, open Quick Settings from Word and
turn off the AutoCorrect Detection
option. Support for Co-Authoring Documents in Word
365
If a shared document is opened by multiple
users, JAWS can now do the following:
list of 3 items
• Indicate who has the document opened using a notification message. • When another co-author navigates to the same line as the JAWS user, JAWS will indicate who is editing the same line. Pressing INSERT+UP ARROW to read the current line will also announce who is reading or editing at that location. • When a co-author actually edits the same line you are on, JAWS indicates that the text is locked for editing. If you press INSERT+UP ARROW, you will hear "Editing locked." You will also be alerted that the line is locked if you begin typing. list end Navigation Quick Keys Now Available in Google
Docs
Google Docs provides a number of keystrokes to
help users navigate through documents more efficiently. However, these commands
are difficult for users

Yes, this is word. I've never opened outlook on this machine, and I have no intention of doing so. I went into my account and found the full version number, here it is: (16.0.11029.20104)
My word was last updated in October of 2018. Maybe yours is more recent and they've changed something.
My only other thought is, make sure the window is maximized.

Re: Spell check in Word 2016

Yes, this is word. I've never opened outlook on this machine, and I have no intention of doing so. I went into my account and found the full version number, here it is: (16.0.11029.20104)
My word was last updated in October of 2018. Maybe yours is more
recent and they've changed something.
My only other thought is, make sure the window is maximized.
