Hello, adding to your point, has been years that we herd no improvement about it from Freedom. They preferred investing on useless and naturally unsustainable features like research it. I do not know what goes on in those technology showcases, but at least wish some Canadian and American mates appearing in those places with their real comments and feed-backs. I sometimes listen FSCast podcasts, however, it is nothing more than a commercial session with some plastic questions and comments rather than a real community driven discussion on the product itself. But, actually, you could ignore all my comments above and could keep on offering your gratitudes to Mr. Dammery and to his team for their "magical job" enabling us to use notepad! Regards

Re: Jaws Cursor İssue

Hi, Going back even as far as Windows XP, I’ve seen many instances in which invoking the Jaws cursor and then using the arrow keys results in “blank, blank, blank” et cetera and I’ve never gotten a satisfactory answer regarding why that happens. I’ve tried tweaking the screen resolution and other settings, to no avail. As for the John’s cursor, I’ve never actually encountered one of those but I would speculate that it must be some device that kicks into high gear when a guy hanging out in the red-light district gets busted and hauled in for soliciting.

Re: Jaws reading level within MS Word 2019
Rick Mladek
For those having issues with Jaws reading levels egg: level 1, level 0, the fix is as such. This was the fix for my problem.
You can now configure whether or not levels are announced when navigating Word documents or Outlook emails, such as when moving in and out of lists. To toggle this feature, open Quick Settings (INSERT+V) and arrow down to "Outline Level Indication." Press the space bar to un-check this box. Tab to OK and hit enter.

Sieghard Weitzel <sieghard@...>
It is definitely a fact that in Windows 10 the Jaws cursor cannot read nearly as much information as in Windows 7. What the John’s cursor can do I don’t know because I haven’t figured out how to activate it 🤣 Dan is also correct in saying that Vispero is working on a major change regarding how Jaws gets information from Windows and that in theory this will restore some of the old Jaws cursor functionality. In the meantime don’t forget that in Windows 10 the touch cursor can also be very useful, if you don’t know what it is or how to use it please activate Help > Jaws Help Topics and find the entry about Jaws cursors. The name implies that it is used with a touch screen and that is true, but it can be activated from the keyboard and be useful even if your computer doesn’t even have a touch screen capable display.

This is one of two identical machines I have for work. The machine used to work fine. However, JAWS now stops speaking after around 5 or 10 minutes of use. It is apparently still running, there are no errors and the laptop continues to function in all other respects. If I close JAWS and reload it, it speaks again until it stops after another 5 or 10 minutes. I have restarted several times but this hasn't fixed the problem. The issue does not occur on the other machine. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to fix this? Many thanks, Ed |

problem with crome and staying loggin in
John Covici
Hi. I am wondering if anyone knows how to fix a problem I am having
with crome which I just started using. I am using Jaws 2019 latest update. With crome latest official version, it won't allow me to stay logged in to various sites like slack, various forums, or whatever. I made sure that under the settings that sites are allowed to read and write cooky data -- at least the button says pressed when I go to it, but it does not work at all, so I am wondering how it is working for others and am I doing something wrong, or is there another setting I need?
