Re: Identifying highlighted text on a web site

Dean: Thank you for responding. Aira is not an option and I am not sure what you mean by
the JAWS option to help you with inaccessible JAWS feature
If you could explain further, it would be appreciated.

If you have your own business, use the Aira business option to get help from an agent. If you use JAWS, use the JAWS option to help you with inaccessible JAWS feature. Or, use a quick five minute Aira call to find the highlighted items.

Hello: I received a Email with a link to a policy from one of my suppliers. When I entered on the link, it opened in Chrome, which is my default browser. Within this document, there are price lists and the Email states that the items that are either new or changed are highlighted in yellow. I need to identify these items so I can compare them to our selling price. I tried going through each line of the item lists and using JAWS key plus 5, but all said black on black. Unfortunately I cannot provide the web site to you because the information is confidential. Any ideas on how I may be able to identify these highlighted items? Any assistance would be appreciated and thanks in advance.

Try using the color attribute sound scheme. To get there press jaws key alt and s, like sam. Arrow to color, or just press c. This should let you read the text, and when the color changes, it will tell you.
I hope this helps. There is a way to search attributes for a particular background color, and if and when I find it again, I will let you know.

Re: There has been no update to reported issues regarding pronunciation dictionary not saving new entries
Orlando Enrique Fiol
Hi all. Ever since 2020 beta 1, I have been unable to add new entries to Default.jdf, although I can add new entries to another dictionary with the default entries copied into it. Vispero tech support claims that they cannot duplicate this problem. But there's nothing so special about both my machines' configurations that would preclude saving dictionary entries, especially since entries can be saved to another file. The problem is that if I want those entries to apply globally, I must use Default.jdf. Is this happening to anyone else?

google sheets hotkeys for next page
William Windels
Hello, I can’t find a hotkey or procedure to go to a next page in a google sheed with jaws 19 and last firefox.
I found a overview of the available hotkeys on the follwowing page: https://support.google.com/docs/answer/181110?co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop&hl=en
And in the accessibility item is also no action for this available I think.
Any hint is very welcome

Has there been any update to reported issues regarding FS Reader 3?

Hi!
Like a month ago, I and others reported some issues about FS Reader 3 on this list. There was some discussion that the issue was a known one, and that a fix was afoot. So, has there been any update to this?

Re: settings in word 365 for Jaws?

I don't know whether it is still necessary to turn off Protected View, but it may be. I would suggest just being aware of it, and either deactivate it for individual documents, if this is still needed, or turn it off entirely within the preferences.
