half right. The feature doesn't work for Eloquence but it does work when using a SAPI 5 voice like microsoft sam etc.

JohnPG search for all of your Jaws scripts at http://www.blindcrawler.com/
Also be sure to check out Blind Crawler's Legend of the Green Dragon server at http://www.blindcrawler.com/lotg/
There will be more to come from Blind Crawler very soon.

hi,
i also did a try, but failed totally. i use ctrl+shift+PageUp and ctrl+shift+PageDown. if i'm not wrong, the script is for use
during "say all" mode.

Warmest Regards,
Allan Wong

David,

I read your message and my heart started pumping as I felt you might have
found the magical solution to my problem. I gave it a try but it didn't work at all. To be exact, I'm running jfw 8.0. I attached the hot key of control
shift F11 to this script. I compiled just fine, but when I tried my new
keyboard command nothing happened. That is, the jaws voice stayed the same
regardless of the number of times I pressed the hotkey. I did read the
documentation on this script and found that there was a reference to "say
all," so naturally I tried the say all command with a large Word file, and I
still didn't get any change in the volume. I will say that I was given the
jaws message "volume increase" and "volume decrease" whenever I hit my
hotkey, so I think there might be some possibilities.

Any other suggestions, anyone, anyone?

I was given the following message after launching the default.jss file, then
using control D to search for decreaseVolume:

Script Not Found
DecreaseVoiceVolumeSayAll is located in the documentation file (jsd) but not
in the script file (jss).  Do you want to remove it from the documentation
file?
Yes No

There are two scripts in the default.jss file:
Increasevoicevolume and decreasevoicevolume

You could attach a keystroke to them to adjust your volume.

Cheers,
David

Hi all,

Sorry for the double posting, but I am going nuts with the jaws volume.
I'm
wondering if there is a way of somehow being able to turn down the jaws
voice without turning down the Windows system volume? That is, when
listening to any kind of audio, when one wants to raise the audio as in
music or a DVD, one must also deal with the jaws volume shredding one's
eardrums because the eloquence voice is so damn loud! Is there a
programming
fix or possibly even a scripting fix?

Matthew
