With earlier versions of Logos you could download the basic program with a couple of books for free but I didn't see anything like that on the current site. It is: http://www.logos.com/ Would you send us your Silverlite scripts so we could see what you did with that program?

I've scripted for Microsoft Silverlight, which I believe shares much with WPF. Would be interesting to know what's available there.

With the latest update you can open a book by using the library. then you can read the first line with a SayLine. Then if you hit the down arrow and do a SayLine it just scrolls the text a few words to the right. I wrote a lot of scripts for Logos 3 years ago but nothing in Logos 4 is scriptable. I think with Windows 8 JAWS won't be able to use the visual hooks like in earlier Windows so I wonder if we might be able to read the text with the normal keystrokes once the new version of JAWS comes out? They are trying to work on accessibility in Logos 4 but they onnly have the demo version of JAWS. They told me that with NVDA they can read the text on the screen. so that is why I am wondering if we might be able to when the new version of JAWS comes out.

I have Logos 4 Platinum Edition but am still a basic beginner when it comes to scripting. However, I can tell you that Logos 4 is cloud based as opposed to Logos 3. Since losing most of my usuable vision about 15 months ago I have pretty much lost the ability to use many of my non -english language studies such as Hebrew, Greek, and Akkadian cuneiform. The read aloud drives me crazy and the accessibility features built into Logos 4 are problematic but I understand from some other blind Logos 4 users that they are trying to make Logos morfe accessible so I have high expectations especially since I have over 2,000 resources tied up into Logos since 2001 and don't want to give up on it. blind5sparrow -----Original Message----- From: Doug Lee Sent: Sunday, June 17, 2012 6:39 PM To: jawsscripts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [jawsscripts] Re: Can Logos 4 be scripted? If you're at all handy with Script Utility Mode, check out the window class name of the main window, whether it has descendants, and whether it has MSAA objects. If you have just a single window, no MSAA objects, and no OSM text (which is what you already discovered), you found a difficult case, and something like Hot Spot Clicker may be your best bet. If you see a window tree and/or a set of MSAA objects, it might be possible to script that.

A couple months after I finished, the Logos folks rolled out version 4. It is built on a totally different platform. My evaluation of version 4 is that it cannot be scripted. I just want to check my assumptions with the list here to see if my assessment is correct. I assume it cannot be scripted, because I cannot read any text with either the JAWS or Invisible cursor. The only thing I can read is the name of the program with the PC cursor. The cursor routing functions also do not work. With the previous version, I could use the invisible cursor to read any text that was visible to a sighted user. Since I cannot read anything with the JAWS or Invisible cursors, I assume there is really nothing I can do with version 4. Is this correct? Thanks, John __________???
