Hello Tom,I am trying to get JAWS to let another program use the arrow keys and is not trying to change anything in default. Unfortunately, I haven't had any luck so far. I did try your method of putting a ; in front of down arrow in the file for the program but all that does was undo what I did which was set the down arrow to pass key through and then try and get it to press down arrow after the pass key. Before, I could at least press down arrow twice to be able to use down arrow, but all putting a ; did was give no reaction when pressing down arrow. I'm guessing that the a ; stopped the down arrow from doing what I set it to do in the game, but when I used that, it goes back to using the default settings which interrupts the program from using it. Hope that makes sense and would appreciate any other suggestions you or anyone else might have.

I am not quite sure what you are trying to accomplish or what behaviour you are trying to work around.I can tell you that in the jkm file the line uparrow=uparrow is:The first uparrow is the keystroke and the second uparrow is the name of the jaws script. If you comment out that line by putting a ; in front of the line and save the file jaws will not intercept the uparrow keystroke. I believe if you do this in the default jkm you would need to restart jaws in order to pick up the changes. I however would strongly recommend that you don't do this in the default but create a jkm file for the application where you wish this behaviour and make the change.Regards Tom Bissett BMO Financial Group Technology and Operations Integrated Client Solutions Tel: (416) 549-6514 E-Mail tom.bissett@xxxxxxx -----Original Message-----From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Zhi HuangSent: February 8, 2010 12:36 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Jaws 10.0: How do I get JAWS to bypass a key permenantly Hello again, I tried Synopsis Key passthrough script in the .jsd file. I also tried Synopsis Key passthrough script. and no luck. Any more ideas?I even tried calling freedom scientific and first the guy advises me to turn off JAWS until I explained again that the developer is trying to add support while using JAWS. He then suggests that I put JAWS to sleep and then he interrupts himself realizing what he's saying. He then suggests that I look at the freedom scientific development network, (FSDN) and look up the TypeKey function. I did that but still didn't do much for me.Anymore ideas?

My understanding is that the .jsd is required for JAWS to actually allow the key binding. It seems kind of silly, but *shrug*. On 2/8/10, Zhi Huang <zhi.huang@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:Hello, Ok. I got the jss part. However, you said In the .jsd: Script UpArrow Synopsis Key [assthrough script Am I supposed to write Synopsis Key [assthrough script right under where it says Script UpArrow in the .jsd file or is there something I have to do in the .jss to get it to show that in the jsd? I also checked the .jkm and it says [Common Keys]UpArrow=UpArrow so either the problem is I don't have the .jsd part rightor it didn't work. Thanks for the help so far.

You'll need one of these for each key that should get passed through to the program that JAWS normally scarfs.

I did start a script that might be half way there, but can't seem to get the second half of it right. It looks kind of like this: Script DownArrow () PassKeyThrough () Pause () TypeKey ("DownArrow") EndScriptAt this point, if I press down arrow twice I could get it to work sincethe first press of the down arrow did what is the equivalent of the jaws keyplus 3 command. Now if I can only get it to press the down arrow rightafter the pass key through, then I would have it.

Of corse, keys like tab and escape I can just use JAWS key plus3 on the number row since its not used too often, but the arrow keys are used very often. My question is there a way to set JAWS to let a certain programuse those keys? I was thinking that one way was to write scripts, butafterreading about 7 chapters of the basics of scripting, I still can't seehow it could be done. Not to mention By the sixth chapter or so, I started to get real lost. Any Help would be greatly appreciated.
