Hi Lee.
May I just ask you, are you sighted yourself? or not.
just curious.
secondly, did you get Jackie's allusion to putting the Saystring into
AutoStartEvent? and, if you really need these numbered icons/graphics
actually anounced every time jaws starts, or every time you altTab to the
application, which I'm not totally sure is realy what you'd want, but, if
you do, then you'd need to put some other statement into the AutoStartEvent
as well, to facilitate this.
now again, I'm really questioning whether this is what you'd really
want/need, in that I'd have thought you'd perhaps have wanted more to put
these into some kind of little helper feature, under another keystroke,
in case the user forgot what graphic did exactly what? in the application
maybe? or something of that nature?
Also, did you realize below, ralize realie bthat you placed a one word
answer, below someone else's question, rather than above it? which is the
normative way people would expect to see things? just to alert you that you
may lose valuable feedback in your communications to the list upon the
ongoing issues, if you don't insure that your responses, appear at the top
of any other quoted text of the thread, rather than below?
regarding your other question, there's a whole bunch of Graphics related
functions, listed in the reference section of the Freedom Scientific
Developer network manual, (FSDN11.0), which is available
on the training section of freedomscientific's website? It's a great
reference tool for stuff, as it kinda sorts functions relevant to various
topics etc. Perhaps there would be a couple functions in there, that could
do what your wanting? there's one in there called, GraphicsEnumerate for
example, which sounds like coupled with a couple other functions, could make
jaws do what you indicate your desiring.
hth.
