Re: Accesible Twitter Applications
Michael Munn
This is why I asked the group members for an alternative of using the MainStream Twitter Application. I'm soon going to be a broadcaster and using the main Twitter is going to be a compromise for me because the time is limited and I want to go through as many tweets as possible during the time that I'm broadcasting. This is in possible if I'm using the Mainstream Twitter because the Main sight is very problematic. There are many hoops to jump through unorder to view each Tweet. I will be learning the structure of the Main Twitter when I'm not on the air. Using an Alternative is just a temporary solution for me. Thank you for asking. Also, the website is configured differently on Each browser. I am afraid
you may have to relearn the structure of the Twitter Main page again on Google Chrome. . Thank you. Best regards Michael Munn Member: Virginia Association of Blind Students National Federation of the Blind of Virginia Student of: Hadley Institute of the Blind

Re: Accesible Twitter Applications
Orlando Enrique Fiol
Dear Sardar-ji,
I used TWBlue for months before finding some solutions to the very problems you list below. playing videos from a tweet,I have never gotten this to work from within TWBlue. But I can always just press enter on a tweet's URL, which will launch my default web browser and play the video just fine. viewing threadsThis is very counterintuitive, but feasible. TWBlue calls threads "conversations". To view a conversation, press alt+windows+C. Here's the most counterintuitive part; you will not find the conversation in the same window as the original tweet; you'll find it under searches. TWBlue will report: "Conversation with so-and-so". Tab over to the list view and, if there are replies to the original tweet, they will be there in chronological order. If there are no replies, only the original tweet will be in that conversation. Once you've read it, you can destroy the buffer with the hotkey control+shift+I. I use the conversation hotkey in conjunction with the previous and next buffer hotkeys: alt+windows+left (or right) arrows. This way, if I am in the home buffer and press alt+windows+C for the conversation, I need only navigate to the previous buffer with alt+windows+left-arrow because search results are displayed to the left of home. However, if I'm deep in a timeline tree and want to access conversations, it's easier to press end while in the tree view, which focuses the "searches" node. Expand that with right-arrow and I can find all searches and conversations there. Realistically, I try to structure my Twitter usage so that I'm always reading either my home buffer or a timeline just to the left of the search results. This way, the conversations are always one buffer to the left or right of the buffer I'm reading. That may all sound hopelessly complicated. But once you get the hang of those hotkeys, you can navigate between tweet and conversation buffers quite quickly. As you know, riyaaz (practice) is everything. viewing replies to a tweet,See above. The conversations buffer handles replies. You can even check if there are replies to replies, and so on. It would be ideal if TWBlue reported this information, so that we wouldn't have to invoke and delete what amount to empty conversations. not so useful autocomplition for tags and users, no way to viewTo receive notifications in TWBlue, you must set each buffer to autoread new tweets, using the hotkey alt+windows+E. This must be done for each buffer you want automatically read when new tweets arrive, even for timelines. Once you set autoreading for the default buffers, they will remain that way until you change them. But when you add timelines or lists, you must enable autoreading with that hotkey for each. The important thing is to listen carefully to the tweeter's name or the buffer name during the autoreading, since there's no place in TWBlue where all notifications are collected. If you hear, "New direct message from Pandit Pranaath," you must go to your direct messages buffer to read it. If you hear, "New tweet in Sonia Gandhi's timeline," you must find her timeline, either using the tree view or previous&next buffer hotkeys, in order to read it. Here is one more detail that I have found very useful. Whenever you view your friends, followers or tweeter's timelines, TWBlue shows you the first 200 in reverse chronological order--thatis--going back 200 from the most recent. Do not confuse this with reverse buffer display, which puts the most recent tweets at the top of the buffer list. Here, new tweets are still at the bottom, but the buffer list only goes back 200 tweets. To go back further, you must use the hotkey alt+windows+page-up. You will hear TWBlue say, (200 items retrieved". In the case of search results, the same principle applies, except that when you search for users, you are only shown 20 results at a time. So, when you load previous items into your buffer, you will hear, "20 items retrieved". If you want everything, you must keep retrieving items further back until there are no more and TWBlue reports 0 items retrieved. Only then can you be sure that you are reading your complete buffer. I point this out because, when I first got on Twitter, I began following all sorts of people about whom I was curious. Needless to say, I quickly reached 5000 followers and began receiving errors that I could not follow anymore users. So, I fst tried using TWBlue to go through my following list, but only found 200 entries. On Twitter's web interface, the list would not refresh properly and would give me duplicate entries. I even tried out two Android apps dedicating to unfollowing twitter accounts. They worked okay, but I still wish I could accomplish this seemingly simple task within TWBlue. Once this blind guy on Teamtalk told me about the hotkey to load previous items into the buffer, I was all set; I could see all my following and friends lists without using other apps. The thing is, I had gone past that hotkey dozens of times in TWBlue's hotkey editor. I thought it meant that it would move you up and down in the buffer by a large amount. I never thought it actually retrieves and loads previous tweets. I hope these tips will enrich your TWBlue experience as much as they have enriched mine.

Re: [External] cool trick with signatures in Outlook

Bill, I can, in fact, edit in the box. For example, I needed to update a small item in the signature I use for this list. I navigated to the box and made the tweak right there. JAWS read everything in that box. To prove my point to myself, I just went there now and created a brand new signature from scratch within the box and it worked just fine. My point was that, because I am often including hyperlinks in my signatures, I prefer to build the original layout in the email, then copy and paste it into the edit box. I can then edit from there.
I am using the February release of JAWS 2020 and Microsoft Outlook Subscription Version 16.0.11929.20776 on my company laptop. I know I have seen this issue several of you are referencing, it’s just not currently an issue for me. I’ll have to go see how this works on my personal laptop running a similar setup.

That's what everyone is saying, Robin. You should be able to edit the signature field while you are in it. You shouldn't need to format the signature in Word, the email body, or somewhere else. The fact that you need to format the signature somewhere else says explicitly that the edit box is inaccessible.

Richard, I just tweaked one of my existing signatures without issue. I find it most straight forward to shift tab past the Cancel and OK buttons to the edit field. This is what JAWS tells me when I do that:
Cancel Alt Tl
So, it’s a bit verbose as it lands in that edit field, which is the first shift tab after the OK button. I typically type and format the signature as I want it in Word or in the email body, then cut and paste it into the edit box.
The list of signatures you have created seems to be the found as a list with one tab from when the dialog opens. There is a lot of clutter between this list and the edit box, which is why shift tabbing works best. H HTH, Robin

Now if the Outlook engineers would only make the edit box for creating your signature accessible ... it isn't as far as I can tell. Or, do you have a trick for that other than getting someone with eyes that work?

Subject: cool trick with signatures in Outlook I accidentally discovered a cool trick in Outlook. If you have more than one type of email signature, based on the audience of your email, I thought we had to go select the one we wanted each time from the Insert Ribbon under signatures. Here’s the trick, as long as you have a default signature in any new email you create, you can simply arrow down into that signature text and open the context menu. The list of your signatures are right there for you to select from and the whole thing will quickly update. Sometimes the Outlook developers surprise me with the shortcuts they code.

Re: Accesible Twitter Applications
marilyn
Hello all,
A few Twitter questions.
Why would one use a Twitter app as opposed to Twitter.com?
I have a Twitter account and have been accessing it with Twitter.com and IE. Today I tried to log in, but couldn’t at all. I used Google Chrome and got in, but now everything is different. I can’t find many of the items I used to be able to read before, such as how many tweets I’ve sent, how many people I follow, and how many followers I have. I also can’t find the place that lists followers and the place where I can follow someone.
Is this a Jaws problem? If so, how can I fix it? If not, where can I go to find out how to make the information readable again?
Many thanks.

Re: [External] cool trick with signatures in Outlook
Steven Hicks
Hi,
I Found a work around, glad you mentioned this though. If you type your signature in something like notepad, it may work in Microsoft Word, check it is all o.k. You can highlight it all with ctrl+a and then paist it in to Microsoft Outlook in the new signature box. It won’t read it back but you can then send yourself a test message to make sure it is o.k. Check the options for the signature when it is added e.g. for new messages and replies, I don’t add it on to replys.
Hope this helps?
