[jawsscripts] Re: Mapping Application key to a script

Unfortunately, that does not work.  I am guessing that JAWS was not trapping 
that key then.


Thanks,

Kevin

  You should be able to go in to the *.JKM file for that application, and paste 
in the following:

   

  Applications=PutTheNameOfYourScriptHere

   

  Control+s to save, and then Alt+w and down arrow to the script file again and 
press enter.

   

  Then compile your script files once more to update the keystroke you added in 
the the JKM file.

   

  Hope this helps!

  Thanks, I just tried this with JAWS 9 at home and it was successful.  I was 
confused because I tried all of the things you mentioned at work and I was sure 
it was not successful.  At work, I use JAWS 7.  I tried it again with JAWS 7 at 
home and it did not work.  Is there a way to do this with JAWS 7?

   

   

  Thanks,

   

  Kevin

    When you check the check box to allow a key to be mapped, you should be 
able to just press your application key on where it ask for a key stroke, and 
it should take it.  You can also change in the JKM for jaws key board manager 
where it shows for example:

     

    Applications=test

     

    The context menu when you hit your application key is the same menu as if 
you click your right mouse button on an item.  But not sure if the application 
key is acting correctly in the program you are trying to do this in.  

     

     

    Hope this helps!

    Subject: [jawsscripts] Mapping Application key to a script

     

    Hello,

     

    I have recently been working with a program where the application key does 
not work.  I can route the JAWS key to the PC cursor and right click to get the 
context menu.  I wrote a little script to do this.  The problem is that I would 
love to map the application key to this script.  There is no way to do this 
with the keyboard manager, because if you try to use the key, it actually 
activates the context menu.  I have gone into the file with notepad, but can 
not find the right way to refer to the application key.  Is this at all 
possible?

     

     

    Thanks,

     

    Kevin
