[JAWSLite] Re: new line announcements

Yes Jean, control 5 etc was just a suggestion. I was hoping it would solve your 
dilemma. Perhaps a little note to support at FS would put things right for you?

  Thanks Peter. Your suggestions are good, but it doesn't solve my problem. 
  The colors are as they should be. I guess we all have different preferences 
  of how we navigate and read documents. Another item that needs support in my 
  opinion is the soft return which is and never has been announced. That's 
  different than a text wrap, and it's not a paragraph mark either.

  Hi Jean,
  If its not verbosity, could your problem stem from not using standard 
  colours? And how about alt 5 for reading sentence and alt 2 for reading next 
  sentence. What I use a lot is control plus 2 to read paragraph by paragraph. 
  and control 5 to re read any paragraph.

    Using Jaws 9 latest update. In Word, I review all my work with the numpad 
  2, down arrow, and read line by line. For me, it's easier to work and 
  proofread documents this way and I never use say all for this purpose. In 
  the first release of Jaws 9, there were problems with Jaws not announcing 
  the paragraph symbol, and while I'm happy that is now fixed, there is now a 
  huge annoyance for me. As I read line by line, Jaws says "new line" at the 
  end of each line of text. There are no line characters, and Jaws is simply 
  reporting that text has wrapped to the next line. Well, I know where the 
  text wraps because I'm reading line by line. All the check boxes for Jaws to 
  announce new lines when are unchecked in the configuration settings.
    Is there any way to stop this? I still find myself going back to Jaws 8 
  when I have to work in Word which is almost always.
