I think it is insert, windows key and F4. I tried to get a better definition of 
the keystroke with keyboard help on and had my Jaws turn off when I hit the 
combo. Ha.

  Hello, what is the key combonation for I think it is clearing out the jaws 
memory. With beta 2 if I leave my computer running all day and nite during that 
time things with jaws get slower and slower and they are fine again if I do a 
shutdown and start again of my pc. I recall there was a key combo to clear out 
that memory without having to shut down.

  Anyone know what it is?

  thanks

    Hi Dennis,

     

    Stephen Greeley was able to reproduce my punctuation problem, and it is 
listed as #46375 in their database.  Since they are now finished testing with 
my system, I can go ahead and force the JAWS cursor to the desired punctuation 
level following your suggested method.  Thanks!

      Hi Gary,
      Until the FS team gets your punctuation problem fixed, you can do the 
following:
      1. Hit Insert+0 to launch Script Manager, then Control+Shift+D to load 
default.
      2. Hit Control+L to get a list of scripts, and find JawsCursor.
      3.
      ; Put this line in JawsCursor script in default.jss...
      SetJcfOption (OPT_PUNCTUATION, 3); All punctuation spoken

       

      4. Find PcCursor script...
      ; Put this line in PcCursor script in default.jss so it sets punctuation 
back
      ; when exiting JawsCursor
      SetJcfOption (OPT_PUNCTUATION, 1); Almost no punctuation spoken

       

      5. Hit Control+S to compile.

       

      At least it will allow you to get the punction level until FS fixes it.

      HTH!

       


      Thanks,
      Dennis Brown

        Today I learned how to get around the problem with the JAWS Dictionary 
Manager while using DECtalk Access32.  This speech synthesizer doesn't inform 
JAWS what language it is speaking.  Therefore, you must leave the combo box set 
to All Languages in order to have your entries spoken.  I would suspect that 
this problem may also occur with other older speech synthesizers.

         

        I still don't have the punctuation problem straightened out, but FS is 
working with me to solve it.  Meanwhile, I'll just have to continue using the 
Global Adjustment dialog to change all the voices from Most Punctuation to Some 
Punctuation.  However, I would really like to have my JAWS Cursor punctuation 
set to All Punctuation so that I can examine things in detail when necessary.

          The 2 bugs I reported in Beta 1 don't seem to be fixed in Beta 2.  I 
still can't use the Individual Voice Adjustment dialog to set punctuation for 
the individual voices.  I still have to use the Global Voice Adjustment dialog 
if I want to change from the default punctuation level.

           

          The JAWS Dictionary still doesn't list all of the speech synthesizers 
that JAWS supports.  The result is that if I use one of the unlisted 
synthesizers, such as DECtalk Access32, the exceptions I entered are not 
spoken.  This is true even when I leave the selection on All Synthesizers.

           

          Very disappointing!  I like the addition of the Tandem feature, but I 
do wish they would fix the features they broke.  I read through the list of 
fixes, and it seemed rather small.
