Re: One Drive question
Van Lant, Robin
That answered it, Martin. I did find that I have to hit Insert up arrow for JAWS to read the full details; just arrowing up and down doesn't, which I'm probably glad for in the end.

From: Udo Egner-Walter via groups.io [mailto:udo.egnerwalter@...] Subject: get current rate of speech? Date: Wednesday, January 26, 2022, 8:40 AM To: main@jfw.groups.io Hi all, @Mark Great that the script works for you 👍 @Mario There are two possible ways of installing the script. The first one is using the MyExtensions.jss file which I will describe below. The second one is adding the script to the default.jss. But if you do the default-script install you have to be very careful because writing a wrong string in the script file makes JAWS unusable at the moment (till you undo this change which is not easy because you need another screen reader to do so). So I decided to write the first method. At first: I have no English Version of JAWS and so some names might differ slightly. 1. Press JAWS+J to bring JAWS window to the front or to open the JAWS context menu 2. Select menu "Utilities" 3. Select menu item "Explore Utilities Folder". An Explorer window will open. 4. Select "Explore My Scripts" and your script folder will be opened in an Explorer window 5. Search for "MyExtensions.jss" and press Ctrl+C to copy the file into the clipboard 6. Press Alt+Tab key to return to the Explorer window 7. Search for "Explore My Settings" and your settings folder will be opended in an Explorer window 8. Press Ctrl+V to insert "MyExtensions.jss" from clipboard but only if it doesn't exist. If the file exist you can go on with this file. 9. Press JAWS+F2 to open JAWS Manager window 10. Select "Script Manager" and open it by pressing enter key 11. Press Ctrl+O to open the file-open dialog 12. Search in the file list box for "MyExtensions.jss" and open it 13. Go to the end of the file and insert the script 14. Place the cursor in the first line of the script 15. Press Ctrl+D to open settings dialog 16. Tab to the edit box for making a shortcut and make one 17. Leave and save the Settings dialog 18. Press Ctrl+S to save the script and compile it 19. Close Script Manager 20. Open "MyExtensions.jkm" with Microsoft Notepad 21. The second line in the file should contain the new shortcut and the script assigned 22. Copy this line to clipboard by selecting the whole line and pressing Ctrl+C 23. Close this file by pressing Alt+F4 24. Search for "Default.jkm" and open it with Microsoft Notepad. If this file down't exists change some shortcuts (I don't know the name of the app to change shortcuts but you can find it in JAWS-Manager by pressing JAWS+F2). Press Ctrl+Shift+D to open default file. If you change or add a keystroke to a script the file Default.jkm will be created. 25. In Default.jkm Search for the line "[Common Keys]". It this line don't exists create a new line and write it down 26. Make a new line beneath the "[Common Keys]" section 27. Insert the shortcut copied from "MyExtensions.jkm" by pressing Ctrl+V. Make sure that the shortcut only exists once in this file (the shortcut is the text before the "=" sign. 28. Save the file by pressing Ctrl+S, close it and try out Please let m know if you have problems or questions.

David, Would I hear that as I am arrowing through files in File Explorer? I don’t, so I wonder if our company set a default for all files to be stored in both places. I’ll see if I can find some sort of quick reference guide from our IT group.

Hi, Our company has us using One Drive as part of Office 365. My basic understanding is that I can denote a fil or folder to be available on my harddrive for offline use. How do I figure out which files or folders are set this way? I think I flagged something when we first moved to One Drive, but have no idea anymore what is or isn’t available offline.

Re: mymathlab.com?

Hi,
I am current enrolled in the College Algebra course. I have employed several work arounds. I don’t use the buttons for the symbols. The keyboard works best. I also copy and paste my answers from Word or Notepad. And as a side note, have you spoken to Pearson or the institution about accessible questions? That is what my institution did, and it is working out well for me.

Greetings to Al!
Does anyone have any experience with mymathlab.com? I am having a few challenges such as writing superscripts and reading to interpret questions that are charts which are very visual. I tried to navigate these using my braille display and no luck there, still not written in an organized way to be read correctly on top of the arrows which point to this number or that one. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
