Good day gwmicro?
I am carbon copying this to my own list of musicians some of whom
use window-eyes and sonar.
Beware, the new upgrade will take out the registry values that made
sonar atleast basically accessible with window-eyes.
You can download the sonar basic script which is supposed to fix
this, but it didn't immediately work for me.
After a couple of times of re-installing it, rebooting, and also
having to re-install jsonar which seems to conflict with we now in
some strange ways, I have them both working.
also when installing the latest 7.52 patch, I never got the
finishing message the first time, had to do it again.
This is on an xp system, but a high powered i7 with plenty of ram.
A purpose built daw.
haven't tested on windows 7 yet.
There also seem to be focusing issues, where I know I opened an app,
but it disappears and I have to hit the icon to open the program
again and give it focus.
Also and this is a long standing problem since the window-eyes 7
days, when I run eudora, window-eyes sometimes thinks I'm trying to
run it again and it says, window-eyes already running.
So my first thoughts on window-eyes are that things got worse, not better.
\
Atleast for me, but I say that in the spirit of encouragement, and
am glad that the basic script was posted to fix sonar.
It'd be good to have the exact registry value that works with sonar
8.5.3 that window-eyes expects, as it seems to be separate from the
jaws one now, because I had a generic registry .reg which used to
work, but it didn't work on fixing the problem with 8.5.3 of sonar,
I had to download the app.
What's up with that?
At any rate, I'm glad I didn't have to re-image my system, it was
probably foolish of me to put a new upgrade on a production machine,
but I never imagined this would happen.
I'm in the middle of two albums and the last thing I need is a big re-install.
Well, hopefully others will give feedback,
and bugs will get fixed, one of my students was good enough to alert
me to the window-eyes issues with sonar.
and I really hope window-eyes and jaws will play nice together on
the same system, and I'm not forced to make a choice.
Thank you very much.
