[Blindtlk] Microsoft Word, or JAWS question...

Thu Dec 10 01:46:33 UTC 2015

I'll have to try it again; I've gotten it to work before with one of the freesom seminars, but I'll have to try it later.

I'm using Windows 10, Word 2016.  I got all excited about trying the traditional files menu.  I turned on Virtual Ribbon, but could see no difference.

Insert f2 for settings center, then use shift control d for default.  Type in ribbon, then it should pull up use virtual ribbon, and give you the option to check it.  Then just hit enter, or just tab to okay.

Howdy...  Just out of curiosity, is there such a easy setting in Word that will change the Ribbon set up to the old XP style?  Maybe I am the only one, but I got so use to Windows's regular menus, and now have just never completely made friends with the Ribbon style.  Maybe I'm just an old guy that doesn't like change, but I hate Ribbons!  LOLL

Go to alt f, then hit the letter t for options, then arrow down to display.
Uncheck anything that is related to reading paragraph markers, or space markers.

I also use Windows 7 with Word 2010 at work, same thing happened quite a while ago, but have not had the time to trouble-shoot.  I think it may be in the Views Tab, maybe Show Markup, but not sure about those.  I also would appreciate advice.

Hello everyone.  I hope that you will be able to help me correct an issue that is driving me crazy!

    I am using Windows 7, Word 2010, and JAWS Professional.  Everything has been working wonderfully, and I have been going smoothly.  Last night I shut down my computer, and then of course this morning booted back up once I was back at work.  But I do not know if I accidently checked something, unchecked something, or did some other little thing that I was not aware of.
No one else has access to my computer, unless evil little elves broke into my office last night, and messed with my computer and then ran away laughing!  LOLL

    The problem doesn’t seem to be in any other program other than MS Word.
But everything reads fine when I do a read all command.  But when I either navigate word by word or letter by letter, JAWS is now suddenly saying “space marker” at every space, and “paragraph marker” at every paragraph.
It use to simply say “blank”, if it was on a empty line, and space if I was going letter by letter, or word by word.  But now it seems to be speaking all of the “"format markings, which is confusing, and far more information than I need.

    Does anyone know how I can get JAWS to not give all of the additional information?

James
