Subject: [jawsscripts] List of Unseen objects
HI all,
When scripting an application, is there a way to get jaws to attach some
sort of identifying mark to objects, icons, graphics, slider bars, or
anything else jaws can't see but is actually on the screen? That is,
when arrowing around some applications I have come across various
objects that jaws can't seem to identify, yet, when I ask my wife if the
graphic, icon, or object is on the screen, she says "yes." A perfect
example is a slider bar I was trying to find on my thumb drive. I was
given instructions to resize the portion of the thumb drive to be
hidden, but I couldn't find the slider's arrow used to shrink the folder
as I didn't want 50% of a 4 gb thumb drive encrypted. I asked my wife to
place the mouse cursor on the arrow and I moved around and discovered
that jaws couldn't read it. Jaws just said: "Blank."
In other words, I'm asking if it is at all possible to write some sort
of script or code that will take each and every graphic, icon, or object
jaws cannot see and mark it with a unique character or string of
characters so that jaws can see it in the future, then hit a hotkey to
place these objects in a list view in order to manually label each
object one by one. Basically, rather than having to hunt each item down
all over the screen and label each one separately, I can write a custom
label for each object all at once.
Can any of this be done? If at least somewhat possible please give me a
hint as to how to find these invisible objects.
Thanks,
Matthew
