Hey Tony.
 thanks. 
the way I check if the screen is minimized I press alt and space bar and when I 
arrow to maximize and it says maximize unavailable  then the  web page is 
maximized. 

I hope this is what you are asking. 

yours Jackie

  How are you Jackie?

  Yes you answered my query very well indeed!

  Now  if I may, just one follow-up question on that!

  I think from memory that you use a screenreader, which like myself is Jaws!

  How do we know when we open a web page or are on the desktop whether either 
is maximised or minimised?

  Is it fair to assume that the page is maximised and the desktop minimised?

  I know that a sighted person could tell at a glance.

  Good to heear you so active on the list!

  Keep up the good work!

  Many thanks,

  Tony Sweeney.

    hey Tony

    as far as I know there is times when a document is opened I.e. word or the 
internet  and say the internet home page is the size of a post card hitting alt 
and space bar then maximize puts it normal size, when its postcard size jaws 
might not read everything. 
    as for minimizing I use this to  access the icons on the desktop, hitting 
windows and M when your on the desktop and say hit A would bring you to the 
icon AVG, its quite useful.
    I hope this helps 

    yours Jackie

      Hi All, 
      There has been a great deal of tuition & I trust learning on this 
wonderful list of late,  so I wonder is it time to slow down for just a little 
for now!

      Now this is probably a simple one to so do, but could you be so good as 
to explain with regard to maximising & minimising applications?

      Why & when should we maximise, & when should we minimise?

      Thanks.

      All the best.

      Tony Sweeney.
