Re: Identifying highlighted text on a web site

The skim reading tool will locate/read colors, summarizing the areas where they are used. There is material on using the skim reading tool in the JAWS training documents under help.
Alternatively as was suggested already, sound scheme would work. The skim reading tool would be more effective, though. Good luck! Ann

Re: Parameter For Pronunciations Of Syllables
Adrian Spratt
It would be represented as schwa. In other words, rather than codes, the JAWS dictionary relies on phonemes. So the onomatopoeic way you spelled that sound is the way JAWS would process it. I hope I’ve correctly understood your question.

On Behalf Of Adrian Spratt Annabelle,
You ask two separate questions. In the first, you inquire about the parameters, or controls, we can use in the JAWS dictionary to tell JAWS where to place emphasis. To my knowledge, Vispero has not provided JAWS users with such tools. Surely they have them, considering how well JAWS pronounces many words that go against convention, but we don’t have access to them. There’s a workaround that I’ll get to.
Your second question refers to the problem of a spelling that is pronounced differently in different contexts. Again, Vispero must have a way of making this happen, considering how JAWS handles a word like “read,” but they haven’t shared it with us. At any rate, to my knowledge they haven’t.
The workaround is typically the spacebar and the use of uppercase letters in the “replacement word” field. Taking your “progress” example, if you want the second syllable emphasized, either put a space before the “g” or capitalize that “G.” In general, the JAWS dictionary involves a degree of trial and error enhanced by experience. For example, I’ve found that doubling the consonant at the beginning of some words can bring about a desired effect, but not always.

Hi, it's Annabelle. Out of curiosity, does anybody know if there's a parameter you can enter within Dictionary Manager, or somewhere within JAWS, to denote the accurate pronunciation of stressed versus unstressed syllables in a given word? I know in the Microsoft SAPI's speech markup language, there are parameters for typing pronunciations of Primary Stress syllables (1) and Secondary Stress syllables (2), as well as syllabic markers (-), and that each letter or letter combination is separated by a space. For example, if there are two pronunciations of a word, like "Progress". "p r ax - g r eh s 1" or "p r aa 1 - g r eh s". How would I simulate this with JAWS?

This hasn't happened to me, but I dimly recall reading that each JAWS dictionary has a memory limit. It's something I keep in mind as I choose which words to fix. I could be wrong. If I'm right, my solution is hardly ideal. Also, if I'm right, I wonder if the limit is dependent to a degree on the computer capacity of our systems.

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? Orlando Enrique Fiol

Re: Parameter For Pronunciations Of Syllables
Glenn / Lenny
One example of doing this is when I labeled the
graphic symbols which will show up as numbered graphics, in Outlook Express,
like graphic 520 would be unred message.
But if I wrote it like unread message, , Jaws
says:
un reed message.
So I spell read in the graphic label as unred, like
the color.
The same can be done in dictionary
manager.
But Jaws has no way of knowing when to say a word
correctly as far as I know, like when we want the word live to sound like
liv.
Or if we want liv to sound like lyve.

Re: Identifying highlighted text on a web site

Not that it isn’t an option, but 1, this info is indeed accessible to Jaws users. It’s just a question on how to know to access it and 2, from the sounds of it, it seems that it’s not a one time deal, but rather an ongoing situation that will keep presenting itself. I.E. making knowing how to properly access highlighted text with Jaws the more practical solution. I’m sure for a one time circumstance, AIRA can be very helpful, but for something like this…?

Re: Identifying highlighted text on a web site

Come on. How is this really practical ? There are schemes in Jaws that allow for a more granular review of document and screen reading. Play with the different sound schemes in Jaws to see if any of those may help. The vast majority of us just stick with the classic scheme we learned Jaws with, but there are schemes that can tell attributes, fonts, colors and so on. These are very helpful for proof reading and reviewing documents that indeed, have highlights or different colorings etc where it is important to be aware of such markings. You can also create your own schemes.

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.
