Hi,Steve,
Thanks for the feedback.
I had my friend try the portable version of skype 3.8 rather than
upgrade his existing install of skype. He reports that skype 3.8
works fine for him as skype has always done. H e is used to mousing
around a lot, I guess. <g> I'm glad it's working for him.
Thanks again for the feedback.
Take care and God Bless,
Doris

Hi Doris,
To be honest, I don't remember. Window-Eyes 6 wasn't too good with Skype at
all, ever. I think even to get a reasonable experience, they would need to
upgrade.
All the best
Steve

Subject: [access-uk] Window Eyes 6.0 and Skype
Hi,
A friend of mine is running Window Eyes 6.0 - and no, he is currently
not in a position to upgrade to the latest and greatest. I am
wondering what is the latest version of skype to work well with
Widnow Eyes 6. I seem to vaguely remember that the changes introduced
to skype with version 3.5 and higher caused widnow eyes not to be
able to read the text chat anymore as it could not see the MSAA text.
Is this correct? My friend uses the WE mouse cursor to read his text chat.
also, is the skype options dialog accessible to Window eyes 6 in
versions of skype 3.x?
Any advice is much appreciated as I am a jaws user and do not have a
demo of WE 6 on my system.
Thanks much.
Doris
