You can always try different window classes to see which works with the 
program. You can always try another class or even delete one if you can't 
find any that help.

| Thanks for the information.  I think I'm almost there.  I've been able to

| there are 0 items in the list when there is clearly one.  Should I change 
it
| to list multi select list box and see what happens?  (that's if I can get
| the program to stop crashing).

| then it could be either JAWS doesn't know it is a list and you can go to 
the
|
| list and reassign the window class.
| Hit jaws key + f2 then go to Window class reassign and hit enter.
| Set the window type to list view.
|
| Or it could be they use a different highlight color which JAWS isn't
| folowing. Set this up in custom highlight assign which is also there when
| you hit jaws key |+ f2.
| You can tell it to use the text color, background color or both as the
| highlight.

|| I'll have to try that.  But the issue is not only the check marks.  What
|| about the list that JAWS can't read without the JAWS cursor?  JAWS should

|| able to read a list view without the aid of it's special rooting.

||

slightly

||
||| Hi folks,
||| Speaking of checkboxes, it'd be really nice if JAWS could show the
|| checkboxes when Malwarebytes Anti-Malware finds stuff.  I had an issue
| last
|| week where I was trying to scan, then my friend (also blind), decided to
| see
||
|| if he could have better luck with it.  As a result of him not being able
| to
|| see the file that Malwarebytes had found and being able to know if it was
|| selected for removal or not, he accidentally demolished one of the
|| accessible games we like to play because some Malware scanners flag its
|| files as Trojans.  And never mind the check boxes on that, I can't even
| read
||
|| it's listings unless the JAWS cursor is selected, and even that does not
|| give adequate information.  Since I know a little of the JAWS scripting
|| language, what tactic would be best to get JAWS to read all of the
| controls
|| and lists correctly without the use of the JAWS cursor? By the way, I 
have
|| contacted Malwarebytes corporation on this multiple times, and it looks
| like
||
|| they don't give two dangs about
|||  it.  Any input would be great.  And so that you know what I've done so
|| far, I've already put in to the script two include statements: Include
|| "HJConst.jsh", and include "HJGlobal.JSH".  That has yielded no results.
|||
||| Thanks and regards,
||| Katherine

|||
||| Is Jaws recognizing the control as a checkbox?
||| If not, You can try to reclassify the control with the window
||| reclassification assignment functionality.
|||
||| You should take a look at this using the jaws homerow functionality to
||| see if the name or type of control is being reported.  Also try looking
||| at the MSAA properties using the f9 and f10 keys.  You should find a
||| section in the basics of scripting manual which discusses the homerow
||| mode and how to use it.
||| This topic can be found in the book called Windows program structure.
||| There is also a topic on reassigning window classes.
|||
||| If you are using Jaws 11, the keystrokes for activating homerow mode
||| have changed.  if you are using Jaws 11, the new key assignment is:
||| JawsKey+control+- on the number pad.  for earlier versions of jaws, use
||| JawsKey+space.

||| Hi,
