Deleting a Message in a Slack Chat

Ekstrand, Pamela A. -ND <pamela.a.ekstrand.-nd@...> #96437 Can anyone using Slack tell me how to delete a message that I have previously placed in a Slack chat using JAWS and the keyboard? The Slack keyboard shortcuts say that if you are focused on a message you can hit delete, or E for edit, but those do nothing when I have tried. I know there is an icon to the right of each message with three dots next to it where you can bring up a delete choice on a menu, but I can’t seem to get to it without trying to find it with the mouse. Thanks for any help.

Don Mauck #96438 Can you try shiftf10 or the application key? Maybe it will work, with Slack you never really know. toggle quoted message Show quoted text From: main@jfw.groups.io <main@jfw.groups.io> On Behalf Of Ekstrand, Pamela A. -ND Sent: Friday, April 1, 2022 3:03 PM To: main@jfw.groups.io Subject: [External] : Deleting a Message in a Slack Chat Can anyone using Slack tell me how to delete a message that I have previously placed in a Slack chat using JAWS and the keyboard?

Curtis Chong #96440 Greetings: Did you try turning off the JAWS virtual cursor (insert z)?

Ekstrand, Pamela A. -ND <pamela.a.ekstrand.-nd@...> #96441 Wow, that did it. Thank you! As long as I do insert z prior to arrowing to the message I want to delete, I can then press e to edit it, or the delete key to delete it. I had also been trying to find how to page up through messages that had scrolled off the screen, and now see that the page up key works if I do insert z first. Thanks again. toggle quoted message Show quoted text From: main@jfw.groups.io <main@jfw.groups.io> On Behalf Of Curtis Chong via groups.io Sent: Friday, April 1, 2022 5:18 PM To: main@jfw.groups.io Subject: Re: Deleting a Message in a Slack Chat Greetings: Did you try turning off the JAWS virtual cursor (insert z)?
