Re: Jaws announcing columns and rows
Bob Kennedy
To make changes like you want, you need to be in Excel first. Then insert V will bring up the options you are trying to find. In the edit field, type in the word title. Don't hit enter, the options will show up below. Arrow down and I think what you want is Define Name Column and Row Titles Override. If I remember correctly, you need to check that box in order to avoid hearing the row and column headings. Sounds backwards I know but try it. If it doesn't work, you can go back and change it back.

JAWS2021.2011.16 Full Release Download Link + What's New
Mike B
Hi All,
Below is the direct download link + what's new
in this, JAWS2021.2011.16, full release.
32 & 64 Bit Download Link:
What's New in JAWS 2021 Screen Reading Software JAWS 2021 Features
Picture Smart Improvements Introduced in JAWS and Fusion 2019, Picture Smart allows you to choose a
photo and submit it to be analyzed. A description of the image is then
displayed
in the Results Viewer. To use Picture Smart, press INSERT+SPACEBAR, followed by P to activate the Picture Smart layer. You can then press A to describe a photo acquired from the PEARL camera or a flatbed scanner, F to describe a selected image file in Windows Explorer, C to describe the current control, or B to describe an image on the Windows Clipboard. JAWS and Fusion 2021 continues to expand this feature by offering several
improvements including:
list of 3 items
• Describing images on web pages: If focused on an image that is part of a web page, such as a photo on Facebook, pressing INSERT+SPACEBAR, P followed by C now describes the photo. • Submitting images to multiple services to help improve accuracy: By default, images are submitted to Microsoft for analyzing. However, the Results Viewer now contains a More Results link which submits the image again to additional services for analyzing and displays an updated description. You can also add SHIFT to a Picture Smart command to use multiple services. For example, INSERT+SPACEBAR, P followed by SHIFT+F, SHIFT+C, or SHIFT+B. • Using Picture Smart in multiple languages: If you are using JAWS or Fusion in a language other than English and you attempt to use Picture Smart, JAWS and Fusion will use machine translation to display descriptions in the particular language. You can also manually choose from 38 languages for displaying results, configurable using the new Picture Smart Language option in Settings Center. list end Please note that these changes, especially the machine translation for
other languages, is still experimental, so things may not always work as
expected.
Results will improve as we continue refining this functionality. For more information on Picture Smart, press INSERT+SPACEBAR, P followed by
QUESTION MARK or refer to the Picture Smart topic in the JAWS help.
OCR Text Directly into a Word Document
The Convenient OCR (Optical Character Recognition) feature has been
enhanced to support sending recognized text directly to Word. Convenient OCR
enables
you to access images containing text that is part of the image and displays this information in the Results Viewer. This includes onscreen images such as the graphical setup screen for an application, an inaccessible PDF opened in Adobe Reader, a currently selected image file in Windows Explorer, or a document acquired by the PEARL camera or a flatbed scanner. If Microsoft Office is installed on your system, you can now:
list of 2 items
• Use the new command INSERT+SPACEBAR, O followed by R to perform OCR on a selected image file in File Explorer or the Desktop and place the recognized text directly into a Word document. You can also press the APPLICATIONS key and choose Convenient OCR to Word with JAWS or Fusion from the context menu. • Use the new Open in Word link that appears at the bottom of the Results Viewer once the OCR process is complete. list end For more information about using Convenient OCR, press INSERT+SPACEBAR, O
followed by QUESTION MARK or refer to the Convenient OCR topic in the JAWS
help.
New Voice Assistant to Help with Various JAWS Commands and Features The new Voice Assistant provides a way to interact with JAWS in Windows 10
using speech input. Supported languages include English, Dutch, German,
Spanish,
and French. Ask it to help you out with various JAWS features using natural speech. This means that the same action can be performed by more than one similar phrase instead of a single predefined voice command. For instance, to launch JAWS Settings Center, you could say "Settings Center" or "change settings." Unlike keyboard shortcuts, which can be hard to remember, natural voice commands are an easier way to interact with the JAWS software. Using voice input to control JAWS can also benefit users with certain conditions which prevent them from using a keyboard effectively. The JAWS Voice Assistant uses your computer's internal microphone or you
can talk to it using an external microphone or headset. To tell the Voice
Assistant
to begin listening for a specific command, there are three options: list of 2 items
• Press the key combination, INSERT+ALT+SPACEBAR. • Speak a specific wake word which alerts the software to begin listening for a voice command, similar to using an Alexa or Google Home device. The wake word is "Sharky." Speak this word followed by a specific JAWS command, such as, "Sharky, list links." list end Note: The wake word is not available if you are using a Bluetooth
microphone. In this case, you must use the keystroke before speaking the voice
command.
list of 1 items • From the JAWS main window, press ALT+U to open the Utilities menu, expand the Voice Assistant submenu, and then select Talk to JAWS. list end When the Voice Assistant starts listening for a voice command, a short
audio indicator plays, and a visual indicator is displayed. After hearing a
voice
command, a different audio indicator plays until the command is processed. After processing, the visual indicator is removed, a different, short, audio indicator plays, and the desired JAWS action is performed. If the Voice Assistant does not hear anything, the message, "Sorry, I
didn’t hear anything" is spoken. If the Voice Assistant does not understand or
if
the voice command is not supported, the message, "Sorry, I didn’t catch that" is spoken. Note: Since all voice recognition processing is performed over the Internet
using Microsoft Services in the cloud, there will be a slight delay
depending
on your connection. Be patient and experiment with different commands. This is a new technology being added to our software products and will continue to change and evolve over time. We welcome your suggestions and feedback. To turn off the Voice Assistant or change other options, such as whether or
not JAWS listens for the wake word or to turn off the sounds, open the
JAWS
Utilities menu, expand the Voice Assistant submenu, and then select Settings. You can also press INSERT+ALT+SPACEBAR twice quickly to immediately toggle
the wake word on or off. When the wake word is off, you must always press
INSERT+ALT+SPACEBAR
first to tell JAWS to begin listening for a command. To learn more and to view a full list of voice commands for specific
actions, say "Sharky, help." You can also select Getting Started from the Voice
Assistant
menu. Here are a few commands you can try to help you get started. Remember to
say "Sharky" or press INSERT+ALT+SPACEBAR before speaking each command.
list of 10 items
• Help • Talk faster • Talk slower • Change settings • Command search • What time is it • List links • List headings • List spelling errors • Tell me a joke list end Improved Microsoft Teams Support
list of 6 items • If you press ENTER on a document in the Files list which opens the inaccessible document viewer, you can now press ESC to return to the files list. You are also prompted to use the SHIFT+F10 context menu and open the document in the desktop application, which is the suggested method. • You can now press ALT+1 through 5 to go directly to the first five tab pages. • Pressing ALT+LEFT ARROW now automatically activates the back button from anywhere in Teams. • You can now press ALT+H to hang up a call in progress. • You can now press ALT+T to set focus to the Teams tree view, if visible. Note that it is usually only visible if CTRL+3 has been pressed to show the teams and channels list. The screen should also be maximized to ensure this control is visible. • Pressing ALT+R now raises or lowers your hand in a meeting. list end Teams also allows you to show meetings and calls in separate windows with
fewer controls. To do this, press CTRL+COMMA to open Preferences and select
the
check box labeled: "Turn on new meeting experience (New meetings and calls will open in separate windows. Requires restarting Teams.)" While JAWS specific keystrokes for meetings and calls will not work in this split mode, Microsoft has their own set of keystrokes you can review by pressing CTRL+PERIOD. New Keystroke for Setting Punctuation Level
You can now press INSERT+SHIFT+2 on the number row (CAPS LOCK+SHIFT+2 in
the Laptop keyboard layout) to cycle through the four punctuation levels
which
controls how much punctuation JAWS and Fusion speak while reading. The available levels are None, Some, Most, and All. Similar to toggling Screen Echo (INSERT+S) or Typing Echo (INSERT+2), the punctuation level will revert back to the previous setting when JAWS or Fusion is restarted. To permanently set a punctuation level, use the JAWS Startup Wizard or Settings Center. Note: Due to issues with some Dell keyboards when using the Laptop layout,
you may need to use the RIGHT SHIFT key to perform this keystroke.
Announce Most Recent Windows Notification
You can now perform the new layered command INSERT+SPACEBAR followed by N
to have JAWS repeat the last notification that was spoken. Notifications
include
an incoming Teams or Skype call, a recent Zoom message, a new email in Outlook, and more. If you use a Focus braille display, you can also press RIGHT SHIFT+N (DOTS 1-3-4-5). To view and manage all your Windows notifications, use the Microsoft keystroke WINDOWS Key+A. FS Support Tool for Gathering System Information
The FS Support Tool is a new utility that collects information about your
computer and sends a report to our Technical Support and Software
Development
teams to help us troubleshoot any issues you may be experiencing while running JAWS, ZoomText, or Fusion. You will typically be asked to run this utility during a technical support session if it is determined that additional details about your system are needed. Some information that is collected includes: list of 9 items • System information such as processor, RAM, operating system, architecture, and more • Event logs • Version of Adobe Reader (if installed) • Versions of all installed web browsers • Information on installed Microsoft Office applications • Crash dumps • Installation logs • Currently running system processes • User settings list end The FS Support Tool can be started from the Help menu in JAWS, or the
Support menu in ZoomText or Fusion and guides you through collecting and
submitting
a report. Announce Accessible Notification Events
By default, JAWS now automatically announces Windows generated accessible
event notifications in both speech and braille. These types of
notifications
are found in a variety of places including business bars in Microsoft Office. If you do not want to hear these announcements, open Settings Center and clear the Enable Accessible Notification Events check box. Automatic Message Reading in Outlook 365
When you open a message from the Inbox in Outlook 365, JAWS and Fusion will
now immediately begin reading the message contents without reading the
title
or header information. Currently, messages are not automatically read if you ALT+TAB to an open message, or you press ENTER on a message in the Inbox that is already open. To further customize how messages are read, open Quick Settings (INSERT+V)
while in Outlook, search for "message," and configure any of the resulting
options.
A few items you might want to change include: list of 3 items
• Message Header Field with Message Announcement: Turn this option on if you want JAWS and Fusion to announce the sender's email address and the subject of the message when a message opens or gains focus. • Messages Automatically Read: Turn this option off if you do not want JAWS and Fusion to automatically read messages when they are opened. • Speak Window Titles For Read-only Messages Automatically: Turn this option on if you want JAWS and Fusion to announce the title of the message window when a message opens or gains focus. list end General Changes
list of 8 items • JAWS now properly reads as expected in Skype when moving focus back to the app withouth the need to first press ALT and ESC. • Added a new Settings Center and Quick Settings option called "Pan Text by Paragraph" which is off by default. When enabled, JAWS sends an entire paragraph to the braille display instead of only the current line as you navigate web pages and documents. This can help improve the flow of reading when panning through text as you are less likely to encounter large amounts of empty space on the display when you reach the end of a line. You should now only encounter blank space if you reach the end of a paragraph, and you would move to the start of the next paragraph when panning again. • While in a Zoom meeting, you can now press CTRL+SHIFT+T to find out who is currently talking. Zoom recently added this option with CTRL+2 but we were previously using it for a JAWS feature. • The default graphics verbosity for JAWS is now to read only labeled graphics as it is no longer as important for JAWS to read graphics that are not labeled. If you encounter a situation where you need to read unlabeled graphics, or you do not want to hear graphics at all, open Settings Center and search for Graphics Verbosity. • When using certain keyboards or headsets with multimedia controls, you can now press the layered command INSERT+SPACEBAR, followed by the GRAVE ACCENT key to toggle volume notification announcements. These announcements are off by default. • Removed the announcement of Tutor Messages in Microsoft Office Ribbons as they were very verbose when attempting to navigate. • Increased the size of the Speech History Buffer to allow for 500 strings rather than just 50 when you press INSERT+SPACE, H to review the most recent strings sent to the synthesizer. • Updated braille drivers provided by Papenmeire. list end Take care and stay safe.

P.S. RE: How do I read info bar in Outlook?
Van Lant, Robin
P.S. I just tried again with the Convenient OCR Window virtualization and was able to read the line, but still wonder if the JAWS cursor should be able to access the text more directly. It would also be nice if I knew that the alert was there. I think Window-Eyes had some way of alerting us when the message appears, but the memory is fuzzy now.

all, I need some guidance. I’m using JAWS 2020 on Windows 10 with Microsoft Outlook Subscription Version 16.0.11929.20966. Here at work, if you begin to compose a message to someone who is running an autoreply, an alert with the text of that autoreply will appear. An AIRA agent confirmed that it appears as a line below the ribbon and just above the line where the From button and my email address appear. I tried to use the JAWS cursor to read the text, but it seems to skip over this line and all the ribbon information. Here is my speech history for this new message: Untitled - Message (HTML)
I tried using Convenient OCR to virtualize the screen, but did not gain any new text. What else can I do to read this line of text? Are there settings for the JAWS cursor I need to change or is there another way?

Pcture Smart in 2021 on a web page graphic
Richard Turner
I used this new version of picture smart on a graphic from my web site. The first description was good, but just said there was a bird. When I used the more results link this is what I got:
Caption is a view of a mountain. This text appears in the photo This object appears in the photo Eagle. These tags describe the photo Accipitriformes, Bird, Bird of prey, Eagle, mountain, Nature, sky. These tags probably describe the photo Accipitridae, Adaptation, Natural landscape, Wilderness. These tags possibly describe the photo lake, text.
It is an image of an eagle lying over a mountain lake, so quite a good analysis.

In Jaws 2021, press Insert+j, tap the alt key. Arrow down to basic and hit enter. Tab to Automatically Start Jaws and hit enter Uncheck the check boxes to start at log on and after log on or set it to never in the combo box. Tab to OK and press enter, then enter again on the next OK. Then, insert+f4 to quit jaws. Now, hit windows+r and type, jaws2020 and hit enter. Jaws will load. Again, press insert+j and then tap the alt key and arrow down to basics. Hit enter and tab to Automatically Start Jaws and hit enter. Check the check boxes to have it start at log on and after start up, etc. HTH,

Thanks, but I thought if you had JAWS 2020, and you check for updates it would tell you there is a new version for 2021. Mine did not so I went to the website. Is that a bug?

Jaws 2021 is out. I just downloaded and installed it.
