Hi,
I've spent the last 3 hours or so experimenting with the latest JAWS 18 touch
interface on a tablet, and here's my conclusion...
Jaws seems a bit buggy. It will process the various touch gestures for a bit,
but it will then get flaky. I swipe with a single finger, and JAWS states a
three finger swipe has been performed. I have tried with various number of
fingers and various gestures, and JAWS is for the most part reliable, but it is
also flaky. I would say the JAWS touch screen accuracy is about 85%. Just
conveying for those interested. :)
Thank you for replying to my question as it has yielded a fun day playing with
JAWS touch gestures on this tablet. It was a bit painful to arrow through those
1300 or so JAWS keyboard commands in the keyboard manager, but I did it in
hopes of getting more functionality from my tablet. At this point, I'll stick
to primarily using a keyboard, but when that Bluetooth connection goes down, I
have the touch interface as a backup plan. Thanks for taking the time to convey
such a useful tip. :)

There are many scripts in default which had keystrokes in the old days and are
now free, like SayTaskBar, SaySystemTray etc.
Many of them work now as well.

Wow! Thanks for sending this information. I didn't think to look for
Minimize all apps--I was looking for desktop. I'll explore a bit more
after breakfast and convey my results. :)

There is a script in default file, so open the keyboard manager,
select the default file and find script: MinimizeAllApps.
assign whatever you want to it.
Write a script and in the body for alt tab:
{Alt+Tab}
HTH.

Hi all,
For the expert scriptors out there, I have what might be a very
simple request, but it might get a bit involved. :)
I'm a scripting newbie, and I'd like to write a JAWS script to place
focus on the Windows 10 desktop. I know I can already use Windows
key+D, but I want to attach a touch gesture to this command. In other
words, how can I use a JAWS script to simulate the Windows key+D
default Windows command and attach a JAWS gesture such as a 5-finger
double tap that will place JAWS focus on the desktop?
I've already used the keyboard manager to associate a 5-finger pinch
to SayTime. When I execute the gesture twice quickly, I get the date
spoken to me. Incredibly basic touch gesture, but it makes me smile
when it works. :)
My ultimate goal is to create many JAWS gestures on my Windows tablet
to replace various basic operating system interface commands such as
Alt+Tab to switch Windows, focus on the desktop, maximize Windows,
send Alt+F4 to close an application, use a complex JAWS touch gesture
to put my computer to sleep or shut down, etc. etc.
If anyone can give me some ideas I'd really appreciate it. :)
