[Trainer-Talk] Moving by Link in Google Doc?

[brianllee at charter.net]

Hello Amy,

You can move to next and previous links by first using Alt with Shift and A
and then pressing K.  Focus will be on "next link" and using down arrow once
will move it to "previous link."  Press enter key on the appropriate choice.
When not in the menu a link should be activated by using Alt with enter key
while in editing mode.  It is a good idea to make sure that screen reader
support and Braille support are checked.  This can be done while editing by
using Alt with T, using down arrow to Accessibility Settings and using that
item.  You can make sure the checkboxes for screen support, Braille support
and if necessary magnification support are checked.  

Take care.

Subject: [Trainer-Talk] Moving by Link in Google Doc?

Good morning,

I feel like I should know this, but I'm going to toss it out there...

I'm working with someone who is learning to navigate Google Docs with JAWS
and Google Chrome. I'm teaching her to use the JAWS Quick Keys Layered
Commands rather than Alt + Control + N or P to move to next and previous
because the shortcut to activate NVDA interferes and though we could change
this on her work laptop, it can't be changed on her work desktop.  So
consistency is the name of the game!

Anyway, she wants to move by link in a Google Doc. Links list does not work
and using Insert + Z to turn on/off Browse Mode doesn't seem to do the
trick.  I've even tried shifting from Editing to View Only modes and that's
a no-go.  I'm not sure what to tell her to do...suggestions?

Thanks for any guidance you may have.

Amy
