Hi All,
Just to add to Mike's email
If I hit Alt + space bar and hit N the current window will be minimised.
If I hit Alt +tab repeatedly, it will bring me through all the windows I have
open at any given time. To select a minimised window to maximise, I just stop
hitting tab and the window will open up (maximise).
Apologies if I asked this before, but using Outlook Express and i want to leave
an "autoreply" so that when someone emails me and I am away I can leave a
message to go automatically to them.
Regards,
Petrina

Hello Jackie,
When I hit alt spacebar I press the letter x and if the window is maximized ,
it will remain so, and if it isn't it will be maximized.
All the best Mike

Hey Tony.
thanks.
the way I check if the screen is minimized I press alt and space bar and
when I arrow to maximize and it says maximize unavailable then the web page
is maximized.
I hope this is what you are asking.
yours Jackie

How are you Jackie?
Yes you answered my query very well indeed!
Now if I may, just one follow-up question on that!
I think from memory that you use a screenreader, which like myself is
Jaws!
How do we know when we open a web page or are on the desktop whether
either is maximised or minimised?
Is it fair to assume that the page is maximised and the desktop minimised?
I know that a sighted person could tell at a glance.
Good to heear you so active on the list!
Keep up the good work!
Many thanks,
Tony Sweeney.

hey Tony
as far as I know there is times when a document is opened I.e. word or
the internet and say the internet home page is the size of a post card hitting
alt and space bar then maximize puts it normal size, when its postcard size
jaws might not read everything.
as for minimizing I use this to access the icons on the desktop,
hitting windows and M when your on the desktop and say hit A would bring you to
the icon AVG, its quite useful.
I hope this helps
yours Jackie

Hi All,
There has been a great deal of tuition & I trust learning on this
wonderful list of late, so I wonder is it time to slow down for just a little
for now!
Now this is probably a simple one to so do, but could you be so good
as to explain with regard to maximising & minimising applications?
Why & when should we maximise, & when should we minimise?
Thanks.
All the best.
Tony Sweeney.
