Hi Dan,
Just wanted to say thanks for the help and support over the last few months
with helping me get my Sibelius Access scripts working.  I am up and running
with it now, but I admit I had to get someone to help me with getting the
screen rotation issue sorted 'cos I couldn't find the Graphics Option,
nonetheless your directions got us there all right.

I can now enjoy learning and appreciating the fantastic work you have done
on creating the scripts.  Thank you so much for all this.
Sincerely,
Marée Steinway

Systems vary so it's difficult to give exact instructions to cover all
setups.

The option you're looking for is one which allows you to rotate the screen
with hotkeys (keyboard shortcuts).

You can usually reach the vital options through the desktop context menu. 

First Press Windows + M to go to the desktop.

Mext press Ctrl + Space to deselect the current item.

Now that nothing is selected you can press the Applications key or Shift +
F10 to open the context menu.

You will hopefully find a submenu relating to graphics. In this menu you
should find an option to disable hotkeys. If this this option is not
checked, select it and press Enter. A typical menu path will be graphics >
hotkeys > disable.

If you cannot find this option you will need to open the graphic options
dialog which is also in the desktop context menu. This dialog will contain
options which also let you disable the screen rotation options.

Hope this helps,

Dan

Hi Dan,
Hope it's ok to jump in here 'cos I'm having the same problem.  I tried
looking for the Graphics Option when I went into the Context Menu in
applications but I couldn't see it.  How do I find this?
I'm using Win 7 pro and JAWS 14.
I have a Dell Laptop but I am using an external qwerty set to DeskTop when I
use Sibelius Access.
Sorry, I think I just can't get used to Win 7.
Marée

Joël,

You may have a graphics card which rotates the screen after certain
keystrokes are used. Go to the desktop and press space to make sure that
nothing is selected. Then press the applications key and use the context
menu to find the graphics options. In one of those dialogs you may find an
option relating to screen rotation. Make sure it is disabled

Dan.

Hi David...

My JAWS install is set to desktop keyboard layout.  Not sure why this is not
working.

Joel,

I'll try this again. You need to have JAWS set to desktop in order to use it
with Sibelius.

Insert+J
Options
Basics
Tab to the keyboard and select desktop
Press Ok


See if that works. By the way, your Caps Lock will then no longer be the
JAWS key, so you need to use the Insert key after that.

Hello folks.


I'm trying to move the cursor to the B piano staff by using CTRL + ALT +
DOWN ARROW.  It doesn't seem to work.  I've checked the keyboard in the Sib
Access options and it says desktop.  I'm using a Lenovo laptop and have a
blue tooth NUM PAD.  I've tried to change the keyboard configuration to
laptop and it does not work.



Any help would be appreciated.



Joël
