The phraze is in the title bar so I think would be a bit harder to select
the whole thing.

What about highlighting the entire phrase, prior to activating the
dictionary. I've tried that with one or two phrases in my bible JDF, and it
works for me.

Hi Christine. Interesting idea. I was curious how you could assign a sound
to a window title using the Jaws dictionary. I guess if it is a unique set of
words then it would work but if the title was a single word, you would get the
sound every time Jaws saw that word in that application.
I think it is a good idea so I gave it a try.
I see it isn't hard to do. Just move the Jaws cursor to the title and press
jaws key+d for the dictionary manager. Only thing is, that only selects the
word the Jaws cursor is on so you would have to manually add the rest of the
title to the definition.
Thanks for the neet idea.

thanks,
I found a copy of my default dictionary. The funny thing is I called
freedom scientific tech support and per the cr there, what I was trying was
impossible. I still don't remember how I selected the title to add it to the
dictionary. Oh well... I'm backing my settings up multiple places.
thanks for your help.

Christine,
Earlier you asked about having a sound when you open windows in general,
and the sounds and audio properties (Win XP) is the correct place to do this.
Now you have added this condition that you want a sound to play when a
particular title shows up on the screen when focused.
I think you need to do the following:
1. First make sure that your verbosity is set to announce application
titles when they open. This is configuration manager in the default
configuration, verbosity settings, and adjusting that particular level of
verbosity.
2. Then you should open the dictionary manager, for the default
dictionary, and in the "add" field enter the exact title of your application
window. Then in the "replacement word" field enter whatever you want. Then tab
to the sounds button and assign a sound. Save and save and save.
I've never done this myself, but it seems that it should work.
Good luck.
Dave

hi,
I'm trying to assign a sound to the title of a window so I can
easily tell which window I'm on when alt tabbing. This is important because in
one application the f2 key retreaves information but on my phone application it
hangs up the phone.
I accomplished this with the jaws dictionary manager, but I don't
remember how I was able to properly assign it.
thanks,

Hi Christine;
To assign a sound to a job / task you have to go into the control
panel / sounds & audio devices / sounds page. Take care.

hi,
At work I had sounds set so that when I switch from one
application to another jaws would play a sound. My system totaly reset itself
and I don't remember how I did this. I am using jfw 7.0 (only at work) I've
tried selecting the title and adding it to the dictionary. This doesn't seem
to work. Can anyone refresh my memory?
