Moderated Spelling error and indicator sounds

marilyn
Hello everyone,
Some settings on my machine seem to have changed, though I didn’t make the changes. Please give me step by step directions so I can change them back. I’m running Jaws 2020 and Windows 10.
1: When I’m typing, sometimes I hear “spelling error” and then “out of spelling error.” I do not want to hear these announcements.
2: Before, I would hear a ding when moving the cursor either to the very top or bottom of the document. Now all I hear is blank, blank, blank… and I am not sure when I’m at the top or bottom. I want the sounds back.
Many thanks.
Marilyn

Tab to,apply, press the spacebar, tab to, Okay, press enter to save / close.
2: Before, I would hear a ding when moving the cursor either to the very top or bottom of the document. Now all I hear is blank, blank, blank… and I am not sure when I’m at the top or bottom. I want the sounds back. A: While in the application press, Insert + V , to open quick settings. Down arrow to find, Top and bottom edg alert with..., press the spacebar until Jaws reports, alert with sound, now tab to, Okay, press enter to save / close.
Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. *My body has absorbed so much soap and disinfectant lately that when I pee it cleans the toilet. ----- Original Message -----

Hello Mike,
On question number 2 I have the setting of sound alert at top and bottom of page but no sound happens. I am using the latest version of JAWS 2019 and Windows 10 along with word 2016. Any thoughts?

Hi Brenda,
Then a sound has not been assigned in the Sounds link / Sounds
page folder of the control panel. In the list of sound events on the
Sounds page you need to assign a sound to the, Default beep , sound event.
This will give you sound for top / bottom. If you need more let us
know.
Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. *My body has absorbed so much soap and disinfectant lately that when I pee it cleans the toilet. ----- Original Message -----
