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

Hi Phil

Please can you explain:

If you have the status line checked, JawsKey+numpad3 on a standard 
keyboard or JawsKey+pagedown will give you further file information.

I've tried to find this keystroke in the JAWS 9 manual, but I'm not 
finding it at the moment.  To which status line are you referring.

Many thanks.

Cheers

Kevin

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
