Enhancements in JAWS 15.0.10026 (June 2014) The following is a list of improvements made between this release and the JAWS 15.0.9023 posting. JAWS Resolved a reported issue on Windows 8 where the Bluetooth Settings on/off toggle was not accessible using the touch screen gesture, double tap. This is now working as expected. The Freedom Scientific Developer Network (FSDN) has been updated. The FSDN provides a general reference for scripts, user-defined functions, and built-in functions found in the current versions of JAWS and MAGic. Go to the Freedom Scientific Developer Network Web page to download the latest FSDN reference guide. Addressed a reported issue with the Say Next and Say Previous Sentence commands, ALT+DOWN ARROW and ALT+UP ARROW, not working in Corel WordPerfect X7. If Citrix is configured to use the Desktop Viewer, resolved an issue where there was no braille output during a JAWS Remote connection. Addressed an issue where TAB and SHIFT+TAB would not move between the All Programs list and Search edit box on the Windows 8.1 Start Screen. Updated the Vocalizer Expressive driver in order to support new voices scheduled to be available later this year. Addressed issues with JAWS not always restarting automatically after using the INSERT+WINDOWS Key+F4 keystroke. If you encounter a situation where JAWS appears to still be running, but you have lost speech or braille, this command manually closes JAWS and creates a memory dump file that can be sent to Freedom Scientific using the Error Reporting feature. Addressed an issue with the Technology News Research It lookup source not always displaying the most recent stories. Resolved an issue with the Spanish version of JAWS where speech was lost when suspending or closing a JAWS Tandem connection. Addressed issues with punctuation not being spoken correctly when using a Spanish Vocalizer Expressive voice. Java JAWS is now more reliable when reading the contents of dialog boxes in Java applications. Users should update their Java installation to the latest version to take full advantage of this enhancement. Microsoft Outlook When performing an advanced search in Outlook 2013, resolved an issue where items in the Search Results list were not being shown in braille. When navigating the Categories list of the Outlook 2010 Options dialog box, resolved an issue where the selected item was not being shown in braille. The braille display now shows the same information that is spoken as you navigate in the Outlook 2013 calendar. If the regional language is set to Canada English, JAWS now speaks the selected date as you navigate with the LEFT and RIGHT ARROW keys in the Outlook Calendar. Microsoft PowerPoint Resolved issues with using JAWS in the PowerPoint 2013 Proofing pane. When you press F7 to begin the spell check, you will then need to press TAB to move into the Proofing Pane and then press INSERT+F7 to read the misspelled word and suggestion. You can then use TAB and SHIFT+TAB to move between the buttons for the available actions and press the SPACEBAR to select one. Note that once you have selected a button, you will need to press TAB again to move back to the Proofing pane and press INSERT+F7 to read the next misspelling. When the spell check is complete, press ESC to switch from Edit mode back to Object mode for the slide. Microsoft Word Resolved an issue in Word 2010 and Word 2013 where pressing a braille display cursor routing button in a table cell that contains multiple lines of text would cause the text on the braille display to move unexpectedly and lose the position of the cursor. Resolved an issue with "mled" being displayed in the status cells of the braille display along with extraneous text on blank lines and inside nested lists in Word 2013. When on a blank line, the status cells should include the line number. Resolved an issue with the Spanish version of JAWS where the INSERT+ALT+SHIFT+F keystroke to read the row title in a table was not working. Mozilla Firefox Addressed an issue where pressing INSERT+CTRL+R to display a list of regions on the current Web page was not working as expected on certain pages. When pressing the UP and DOWN ARROW keys in an edit combo box on a Web page, resolved an issue where the cursor was moving by two lines instead of one. JAWS no longer double speaks items in lists that are inside ARIA alerts. Addressed an issue where JAWS was not reading as expected when navigating by character in table cells contained inside edit fields, such as in the CKEditor Web-based application.

Lisle, Ted (CHFS DMS)
Or addressing the problem with read-only documents--a problem that first showed up in 14. Issues like this often hang around for two major releases; I remember a dictionary glitch that would not allow editing or deletion of entries with asterisks, requiring use of an external text editor.

What is the problem exactly? The focus will not show new lines any longer? And will disconnecting and reconnecting the usb solve the problem? That is exactly the problem I am having with my focus display with firmware 3.7. When the brailledisplay is not longer refreshing, the keys on the displaey are still working. When I press a button, it will interupt the speech. Is that what you are having? Regards, Marten On Thu, 26 Jun 2014 13:12:27 -0400 Kimber Gardner via Jfw <jfw@...> wrote:

This new feature allows you to quickly and easily switch between an active USB connection with a computer and a Bluetooth connection to a smartphone, tablet, or another computer running JAWS. "This is an awesome feature!" says Ron Miller, Blindness Hardware Product Manager. "I can be working on a Microsoft Word project, or other task, using my Focus Blue braille display connected to my PC through its USB port, and by pressing DOTS 1-2-3, quickly switch to my iPhone to send or respond to a text message, refer to info I have on my phone, or even read the caller ID before I answer an incoming call." Power 1 2 3 is available in the latest Focus Blue firmware update. For more details and instructions to download and install this feature on your Focus 14, 40, or 80 Blue braille display, visit the <http://www.freedomscientific.com/downloads/FocusBlue/Focus-blue-Update.asp> Focus Blue Firmware Update Web page. (This update is not intended for use on the Classic Focus 40 Blue braille display. A Classic unit is any Focus 40 Blue whose serial number begins with 43 and was purchased prior to July 2012.) _______________________________________________ Jfw mailing list Jfw@... http://lists.the-jdh.com/mailman/listinfo/jfw_lists.the-jdh.com _______________________________________________ Jfw mailing list Jfw@... http://lists.the-jdh.com/mailman/listinfo/jfw_lists.the-jdh.com --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
