[GUI-Talk] Google Docs, Google Drive, Etc.

[Curtis Chong]

Hello Susan:

May I say that the most positive result is achieved with what is called
Google Workspace with the JAWS virtual cursor turned off. I bet you never
had to do that before.

That said, each specific application has its own unique set of keyboard
commands. Also, before you can even attempt to read a Google Docs document,
you need to turn on both Accessibility Mode (CTRL+ALT+Z) and Braille Mode
(CTRL+ALT+H). It all gets harder from here. Google does have a plethora of
help pages, but you have to read them thoroughly and carefully. This is no
laughing matter. The Google Workspace is here to stay, and nothing will
change how it works today. We just have to live with it.

With kind and sympathetic regards,

Curtis Chong

Hi, list:

 

I have a Google account, but I find Google Docs, Google Drive, etc. next to
impossible to navigate or to read or to do anything else with.  Is there a
list or manual somewhere of Google commands that would make thisdoable in a
pretty straightforward manner? Thanks much!

Best Regards,

Susan Tabor
