Yes, JFW does announce the ATC menu being open, window eyes announces a change, 
but is not explicit like JFW.

 

I’m not sure whether 4.71 has yet been announced on this list, the performance 
improvement has rendered me speechless, so as I can’t speak, back to my flight 
to Palermo, see if I encounter the same mountain as Jordan.

 

Unbelievable increase in speed.

Hi Robert. 

Please correct me if I am wrong, or a fellow BVI pilot who’s using JAWS can 
correctly me if I am wrong. 

But I have notice while flying that JAWS wil tell us without doing anything 
when it is switching to ATC. 

At least I’ve heard it say from time to time ATC. 

So maybe it is switching in and out of the ATC window. 

But I could be wrong on this. 

Now I need to go stress test the latest beta. 

HTH.

Hi,

 

REGARDING:  could be a way for michelle to tell those of us who are blind the 
current state of the ATC window 

 

Yes.  I can address this issue as soon as I have completed the development of 
the next release which has a lot of updates users are anxiously awaiting.   

 

Regards,

 

Robert

An idea then.  Maybe there could be a way for michelle to tell those of us who 
are blind the current state of the ATC window.  Like she does with the 
simulator.  I.e., when we issue the command "ATC," or, "toggle ATC," Michelle 
could say "the ATC windows is now open and in view," or, "the ATC window has 
now been closed."

Yes.

 

REGARDING: when I tell Michelle to get the local weather, doesn't that open the 
ATC window?

 

No. The ATC window will be wherever it is.

 

REGARDING: when the next command, "Charlotte clearance delivery," is spoken, 
ATC window should already be open. 

 

Not necessarily. 

 

REGARDING:  Obviously Michelle interacts with the ATC window...

 

Not exactly. The Microsoft simulator opens and closes the window at various 
points in time.

 

REGARDING:  In other words, how do I get all the sounds from FSX and IYP to be 
recorded as well

 

I use fraps, which can be purchased at http://www.fraps.com

 

NOTE: Please understand that SuperATC does not guarantee the state of the ATC 
window.

Hi Robert,

Quick question before I try this:  Is there a way for a sighted person to see 
whether the ATC window is open or closed?  This way I will know for sure the 
state of the ATC window when I issue the commands.  Although, now that I think 
about it, when I tell Michelle to get the local weather, doesn't that open the 
ATC window?  Therefore, when the next command, "Charlotte clearance delivery," 
is spoken, ATC window should already be open.   Obviously Michelle interacts 
with the ATC window, because after I say, "ready to copy," she executes 
something, but instead of hearing clearance delivery, I hear the weather info 
again.  So if a sighted person can see the active state of the ATC window, this 
might be helpful.    I am also going to create a recording of my the next 
attempt, if I can figure out how you're accomplishing it.  When I record, my 
voice can be recorded, but I am not quite sure how to record other sounds from 
the PC.  In other words, how do I get all the sounds from FSX and IYP to be 
recorded as well"
