Hi bill:

I tried the key combination ctrl+jaws+tab and it brought me to the label box that I saw whenst I pressed jaws+f2?

Is there some other combination for prompting?

You shouldn’t need to do that. There’s also another function in JAWS which might work in your situation.

Creating a Prompt

To create a prompt:

Move to the control for which the prompt is not properly spoken.

Press CTRL+INSERT+TAB.

A dialog box appears to walk you through the creation of the prompt. On the first page, enter the prompt for the control as you want JAWS to speak it,

and then select Next.

On the second page, enter the prompt for the control as you want JAWS to display it in Braille, and then select Next.

On the third page, specify a Tutor message to provide assistance with navigation or the use of this control. If you leave the Tutor message blank, the

default message is used. Select Finish to create your prompt.

Ok, do I have to restart jaws, or, reload the webpage for it to recognize the new labels?

It should label the button as a Personal Web setting, and should work with the Virtual cursor as well as JAWS cursor.

Hi, Kim. One thing you want to make sure of is that "turn off Attachment
Preview is checked. This is in Outlook Options under Trust Center. Once you
open Trust Center, press ALT plus T for Trust Center Settings. Arrow to
Attachment Handling, then TAB to the Turn Off Attachment Preview, make sure
it is checked, then TAB to the OK button in Trust center.

Having Attachment Preview turned off makes it easier to Right and Left Arrow
through your list of attachments.

If you feel more comfortable with someone on the phone with you while you
explore these options, you may call me between nine AM and nine PM Pacific
Time. My number is:

714-835-6295

Hi Ann,

Unfortunately, in this case, insert A doesn't work. When I press
insert A Jaws says "no attachments" even though I know for a fact that
there are attachments. I tried this on several emails and never was
able to reach the attachments.

Thanks,
Kim

Hello, I’m using windows10, Jaws2018 and Outlook2016. There are times I will switch to a folder to look at an email. I read the email and press the escape key when done to get out of the email. I then press F6 to bring up the folder list. I then try to move back to the inbox and the cursor is sitting on the inbox folder. Yet once I press the enter key it doesn’t go in. This usually happens when I went into the delete folder and then go back to the inbox. I then have to exit Outlook and come back in. This doesn’t all the time. Any suggestions? Kevin

Hi, Mike.

How to Make Custom Labels

This is appropriate for labeling buttons.

1. Put focus on the item you want to label.

2. Press jaws + F2.

3. Arrow to custom label. This will open a window that allows you to assign a label that makes sense.

Hey guys:

I seem to remember that there was a thread on here regarding labeling “unlabeled 0” buttons on webpages?

Is there a way to have jaws say something else whenst I figure out what the button does?

Thanks for the quick response.
The control shift + o seems to work as it identifies 3 inline objects. (There are 3 objects pasted on the document)

However, when I press enter, there is no response. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Cathy

If it is a true text box, press ctrl+shift+o for JAWS to see the object, then press enter for JAWS to read it.

If that doesn't work and you have JAWS 18 or later, press
insert+spacebar, then o, then s to have JAWS perform OCR on it.

Good luck!

Are you able to save through the file menu?
Alt F
Save attachments
Tab to arrangements
Arrow to document you want to save
Press enter
Select folder where you would like to save the document

I have the same set up as you do. I am able to follow the above steps and also see the option you mention to save all attachments.

Subject: Accessing attachments in outlook 2016

Hi all,

Hoping someone can provide instructions.

My office has recently upgraded to outlook 2016 in conjuction with office 365. Whenever I get an email with one or more attachments, the only way I can access them is by doing a save all attachments. I see a button that says attachments but pressing space or enter on it seems to have no effect. In previous versions of outlook I could back tab to the attachments then press enter to activate. This no longer seems to work. Back tabbing takes me only to that infernal button. What am I missing?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
Kim

Yes. That’s exactly how it works. Controls don’t label across new pages. Only the labels for the labelled page are stored. This is inconvenient, but one never knows if the controls or buttons will remain consistent across new pages, so each page must be custom labelled.

Ok,

Here’s what I found.

I am using a website called “oyez” where one can listen and download audio recordings of supreme court arguments.

Te issue is when I pull up the “oral argument -month, day, year”,

There comes up a player at the bottom of the screen with five “unlabeled 0” buttons.

I was able to label the buttons on one case whilst having it up there for listening or downloading,

However, when I pulled up another case,

The labels are gone; like jaws forgot because it may think that the new case is in fact a new page?

Is this how it works?

Or, is it supposed to work that once the buttons are labeled, it should remember them no matter which case I bring up.

I do understand that there domains of sorts, where eve n though the site has many pages, they look the same to you and i.

I hope I have explained it correctly;

Thank you muchly for any assistance to be rendered.

Ok,

So will the prompt I assign work across pages whereas the button label function can’t remember the buttons from page to page?

As I go from case to case?
