Moderated Windows 10 and emojis

Edward Green
Hi all,
I wondered whether anyone has found an accessible way to type emojis in Windows 10 using JAWS 2019. I have tried by bringing up the Windows touch keyboard from the System Tray, but don't seem to be able to enter the emojis using JAWS commands on the physical keyboard - I have tried the touch cursor without success. I have had limited success in finding emojis on the screen itself, but scrolling is a bit unreliable/at an awkward angle as I'm using a laptop. I have tried a couple of windows shortcuts which are meant to bring up emojis - Windows semi-colon and Windows period, but they don't seem to work. Does anyone have any suggestions either things I can do differently using the methods I've already tried or something else? Cheers, Ed |

Windows + Period brings up the emoji panel and you can arrow around or if you type something like "face" or grin" it will show only emojis like that.

I tried it in sending a message to myself via computer and even in a post on Facebook. It worked in both situations. 😊

You have to be in an edit field, don't you? I do have to tab then tab back to get Jaws to read anything. If I don't it is as if I didn't open anything. It will read the edit field. But after the tab and shift tab I can select them.
