Flore,
Does this mean you would not want to use the right arrow key to stop Jaws
speaking at the end of the current line when in reed all mode?
Thanks,
Nigel
It's not what Operating system you use, it's how productive you are with it.

I think there may be some confusion which is probably my fault.
What I meant is when in say all mode pressing the up arrow key will move to the line above and keep reading. Pressing the down arrow key will move to the next line and keep reading. You are able to read line by line when doing this but Jaws just continues to talk. If you wanted the speech to stop you could either press the stop speech key and jaws would stop speaking with the cursor at the beginning of the word you stopped on and this word would be announced to the user. Or if the Home key is pressed focus will move to the beginning of the current line and speech would stop.
How does this sounds?
Thanks,
Nigel

used.As I said, the home key is used to get to the beginning of the current line in Windows, so perhaps it, rather than the Up Arrow, might behowever,I'd still want to be able to read line by line while in SayAll. We're no longer designing a JAWS from scratch; so that at any one time there are many, many more active users of the program than learning users of it. There must have been a reason why FS chose the shift key; perhaps it is more 'sticky' and/or flexible. Some key assignments are,topossible to change. (Keyboard manager, etc.)

I tested Jaws when reading a line and when you stop speech and focus returns to the beginning of the line. I am proposing that you should stop at the begining of the word you stopped on and this word should be read outsaythe user to confirm the cursor location.
I think it makes more sense to use the up and down arrow keys rather than shift when in say all mode as this simplifies the number of keys used. If you want to read by line you will still be able to but not while inwithall mode.

This functionality is present: but with the right-shift key forabeginningdown a line and reading on, during SayAll; and left-shift for reading from the beginning of current line and onwards, during SayAll. The Up-arrow key is for moving *up* a line, not for moving to theof current line (for which the home key is the standard). I believe that one should, always, have the option of reading text one line at03/10/2005intime if one chooses.

I would like to suggest that for this screen reader that when you arelinereed all mode pressing the down arrow key will move to the next line down and keep reading.
Pressing the up arrow key will move to the beginning of the currentbeginningand keep reading. If the up arrow is pressed when already at theThenof a line, IE if the up arrow key is pressed twice in quick succession.03/10/2005the line above will be read and the screen reader will keep reading.
If the user wishes to stop at any point he will press the stop speech key and the focus will reside at the beginning of the word he stopped on. To confirm this to the user this word will be read out.
What do you think? Thanks, Nigel
