[jawsscripts] Re: KeyPressedEvent Question

Hey Denis,
I really don't think so, but how would I check?  Is it that key interrupt 
checkbox in Config manager?  This is one of those pain in the elbow apps 
because there is only one window, window class, control id, and so on.  The 
only way I have managed to get the info I need is by messing with NewtextEvent 
and SayHighlightedText.  Nothing else seems to fire at all in this app.  
FocusChangedEvent doesn't even get fired when I use the arrow keys or the tab 
key.

  Are you sure Jaws isn't reading the item, but your typing steps on the 
  speech?
  For example, when you type, the typing interrupt flag silences Jaws when a 
  key is typed.  Could your typing be silencing Jaws on the incremental 
  search?
  Lets say I have a list named "Rock: Classic"
  and when I type the R, then the O, Jaws went to the item with the press of 
  the R, but my typing the O silenced Jaws trying to announce the new item.
  Could this be the problem?  If so, then there is a different approach needed 
  to fix your problem, one in which you can toggle typing interrupt flag when 
  in that list.
  You really want to stay away from an event-based solution when that event is 
  triggered so frequently in all situations, like KeyPressedEvent, or 
  NewTextEvent, and restrict it to specific-based events like 
  ObjectChangedEvent, or ActiveItemChangedEvent, or something that is more 
  specific and non-global.

  Does this make sense before we proceed?


  Thanks,
  Dennis Brown
