Hi,
Yea, true but sometimes you don't have hours or day(s) to figure out what
code is needed to keep a job when you're not very familiar with scripting.
Thanks.
Bryan

Yes, you're very correct. All this basic info can be found by reading the
Freedom Scientific Basics of Scripting Manual.

Hello,
If a key is bound to a jaws function (like the space key in a browser
virtual cursor mode), you can determine the script that is being executed by
entering keyboard help, and then pressing the key you are interested in
three times. JAWS will then say and spell the script that is linked to that
key.
Jonathan
Best wishes,

Hi,
What I found so far is much faster.
I just threw 15 tab keys into a script block and physically press
space to open the list when focus lands on the list.
Thanks,
Bryan

Hi Bryan,
as fas as I know there's no function in JAWS to press a key and hold
it down until another function releases the key.
To send a keystroke to the app you can use:
TypeKey ("Space")
With listbox do you mean a combobox opening a list?
You can try to use domain specific scripting to solve the problem.
Here's an introduction from Freedom Scientific:
https://doccenter.freedomscientific.com/doccenter2/doccenter/rs25c5174
6a0cc/
DomainScripts/02_DomainScripts.htm
<https://doccenter.freedomscientific.com/doccenter2/doccenter/rs25c517
46a0cc
/DomainScripts/02_DomainScripts.htm>
You can try to find the control by using the GetDocumentXML ()
function.You get a XML file with attributes and values. Search for the
right attribute and value. Then use
PerformActionOnElementWithTabAndAttribute () with one of the following
Action_setFocus
Action_makeVisible
Action_doDefaultAction
Action_leftMouseClick,
Action_rightMouseClick
So you can for example set the focus and then use TypeKey ("Space").
Or you can do a left mouse click at the element.
Perhaps you have to try different attributes and values or different
actions.
Hope this helps, good luck
Udo

Hi,
On the web app, a list box opens when I hit the space key.
I didn't find spaceKey ().
Would anyone have a sample of:
pressKey,
releaseKey, and
playKey?
How would someone auto open a list box?
Thanks,
Bryan
