Hi Don,
It sounds like the scripts are not installed-- I guess the suggestion to
import the settings from JAWS 17 is right after all-- I wasn't thinking
of a script as a setting. It might be better to reinstall the script so
that the installer knows you have installed in JAWS 18. If you hit
JAWSKey+q and it doesn't say "Audacity settings are loaded...", the
scripts aren't installed.

Hi Gary
I use Windows 7
I had to hit the Insert Control V to get told the audacity version which is 2 1 2 0
Not sure if that’s what you meant.
Insert plus H gives default JAWS help.
I do not get told “No project,” when there is a project on the fire.

Hi Don,
What version of the JAWS script are you using? What version of Windows? This will be hard for me to debug as I have a 64-bit machine now. I don't think importing settings will help in this case. The two main culprits are the function that detects whether focus is in the main window and the one that determines that no project is open. Do your cursor keys report "no project" in the track panel? When you press JAWSKey+h do you get the Audacity script help or the "default" JAWS hotkey help?
You can get the script version by pressing JAWSKey+h, but if that gives you the default JAWS help, try JAWSKey+Control+v, and of course let me know you didn't get the Audacity script help.
Thanks.

Hi all and happy Thanksgiving
I have the latest Audacity and JAWS 18 on two different computers.
On the desktop computer, a 32-byt computer, if I hit alt and
delete while recording or playing Audacity will not_ tell me the
elapsed time of the recording.
All it does is say “PC cursor active.” On that computer I have to
go back to JAWS 17 to get the Alt-Delete keystrokes to give me the
elapsed time.
Meantime, on a 64-byt laptop computer that pair of keystrokes does
give me the elapsed time, which is vital to my recordings.
Does anybody know how I can make that combination work on the
desktop computer which is where out of necessity I do most of my
recording.
