[bcab] Re: Windows Explorer in JAWS and Window-Eyes

Hi Kevin,
 
A say-line which is JawsKey+numpad8 on a standard keyboard or
JawsKey+cursor up on a laptop will normally speak the whole line.
 
If you have the status line checked, JawsKey+numpad3 on a standard
keyboard or JawsKey+pagedown will give you further file information.

Subject: [bcab] Windows Explorer in JAWS and Window-Eyes



Hi 

When I use Windows Explorer with Window-Eyes and check the Details
option in the View menu, Window-Eyes reads all the details pertaining to
that file or folder - time, date, file size, etc. 

However, when I do this with JAWS, it only reads the file name. 

I've tried using the Untruncate Columns option CTRL+NUM PAD PLUS, but
this doesn't seem to make any difference. 

How can I get JAWS to read all the file information in Windows Explorer.


Thanks in advance. 

Cheers 

Kevin
