I would greatly appreciate learning where to look for information on
how to have Jaws tell me details like foreground and background colors,
highlighted colors, and how to tell jaws to only read text with certain
attributes.

I could do all that with Window-Eyes, but not sure where to begin with

Thanks,
Richard

You mean you can’t locate the .msi file?

It should run and install when you activate it.

Good morning:

I am trying to install the Audasity scripts, it uses a msi file extention.

I cant locate the windows installer program.

Any help would be appreciated.

Does anybody know where I can get scripts for audacity?

 

Thank you.

 

 

Alt+l will list misspelled words without turning on quick keys.  Press enter on the misspelling and correct it.

One of its newest features is a capability which was offered by Window-Eyes but which is not available in JAWS unless you first enable navigation quick keys. With Lesey there are shortcut keys which can move the cursor to the next or previous spelling error as well as to the next or previous grammatical error. I realize that JAWS does offer this capability but I don't find it as useful. This is because you must first press insert-Z to enable navigation quick keys, press the desired hotkey and then you must press insert-Z to disable navigation quick keys so you can edit the document. Window-Eyes offered hotkeys which would move the cursor or caret to the next or previous error without the need to enable or disable browse mode and I never understood why JAWS never offered this capability. I requested these hotkeys to Brian Hartgen, one of the co-developers of Leasey, and he was kind enough to add it into the latest update, for which I am both thankful and very pleased.

Hello,

I use the alt/shift/L for spot checking documents, but on all of the computers in our computer lab, once in the spell checker dialog with F7, Insert/F7 will still announce the misspelled word that is targeted for correction still.

Hi everyone, Iâ?Tm coming in to this a bit late, but hereâ?Ts my findings.

Spell Check is unreliable in MS-Word 2016 via the F7 method. For some reason I have not seen the described behavior on PCâ?Ts running the 365 version of MS-Word.
Iâ?Tve advised that clients learn the alt shift L method as a backup anyway, but this has been a problem for at least a year.

Iâ?Tve spoken to Vispero, and they say itâ?Ts a Microsoft problem, and Microsoft says itâ?Ts a Jaws issue.

Not sure what is different in 365â?Ts version that has this problem fixed.

Can anyone confirm?

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.

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.

I don't like it either, but better than nothing. If you press enter on the
word JAWS finds, I think it takes you to it.  I still use f7, then escape to
find the word, then try to figure it from there.  Stinkin' annoying!

Ann,

Thanks, did not know about this. Better than nothing but it does not
take you to where you are in the document so you can ctrl arrow around
to see the context. It also does not spell the misspelled work out and
then give choices. Workable, yes, preferred to the normal behavior with F7,

no.

Thanks for sharing

In her Word 2016 text book, KathyAnn Murtha recommends either using the
JAWS command alt+shift+l to locate misspelled words, or insert+z to
invoke Word's quick keys, then the lletter m to locate misspelled
words.  Once you have found a misspelleing, use the applications key to

suggest corrections.

Using Win 10 pro version 1803, and latest version of Jaws 2019 I do
not get full speech when doing a spell/grammar check in Word 2016.
When I hit F7 to do the spell check in an open Word document, I'm
given an option to change language and as I tab possible suggested
correctly spelled words. The problem is Jaws is not reading me the
word that is spelled wrong so I do not know what I'm replacing or if
I want to replace. Anyone found a work around for this?
This does not happen in outlook 2016, spell check works the way it is
supposed to.
