Turn off Speech in jFW
|
Rob Hudson <rob_hudson3182@...>
In NVDA speech can be disabled with NVDA+s. What is the equivalent in JFW? There are times when it would be useful to just use a braille display.

JAWS key and while holding it space. Then type s. The same command turns speech back on.

Insert f4, then enter closes JAWS. the command I gave in an earlier message leaves it running and stops speech.

Hi. The speech on demand feature of jaws differs from the disable speech
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
command in NVDA. Speech on demand doesn't truly disable speech. I don't use a braille display but it should be noted that if you implement say all mode with insert down arrow, jaws will still speak even if you set jaws to speech on demand. Chris Judge

Here is an interesting article about the command we are discussing.

https://blog.freedomscientific.com/learn-more-do-more-new-features-in-jaws-toggle-jaws-sounds-in-speech-on-demand/ It has been modified in recent versions of JAWS and, at least in the current version, you can completely stop speech using a variation, JAWS key space, capital s. The original command does allow some speech, as you point out. it didn't used to but it has in recent versions. Gene

Neat, I didn't know that. You actually have to set speech on demand before

the insert space capital S command will work, so if you want speech fully disabled you have to execute 2 commands. Hopefully they will change this. Chris Judge

Hi, also if there is a particular program you don't want jaws to talk in you
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
can turn speech off for just that program. I have a game I play that has its own speech so I don't need jaws. Whenever I go into that game I have Jaws set to not talk but since it is still running if I need to quickly go to another program on my computer I don't have to start Jaws again. When in the game as soon as I press alt tab or go to the desktop jaws starts speaking again but as soon as I alt tab back to my game Jaws goes quiet again. So if you know you won't need Jaws speaking all the time in one program you can save time by using this setting. At the moment I'm not totally sure where the setting is and I am having trouble concentrating because I am falling to sleep. If people are interested I can dig up my notes in the morning. Bye for now. From Shaz. Canberra, Australia.

Hi,
Here's how to put JAWS into sleep mode for a specific
application or program, but I want to warn that you need to be very careful with
this, because it can be difficult to undo
this if you make a mistake. This is the type of sleep mode in which JAWS will never speak once a program is loaded. 1. Open the program or application for which you want JAWS to
be silent during its operation.
2. Press JAWS key plus the number six on the numbers row (not
the NumPad).
3. In the search box which comes up, type the word
sleep.
4. You will get two results, one applying to braille sleep,
the other applies to sleep for JAWS, and it will say it is
disabled.
5. Press the Space Bar until it says Enabled.
6. TAB to OK and press ENTER.
Now, whenever you start the program for which you never want
JAWS to speak, JAWS will always be silent.
Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. Go dodgers!
