Introduction |

If you
regularly use a screen reader, you may wish to turn it off or set it to sleep
mode when using the self-voicing IVEO Viewer program. Below are
instructions on how to do that for several screen readers. You should also open the Preferences item in
the file menu to be sure that the Windows File Dialog mode is selected, the
Fixed Screen Mode is selected, the Accessibility Mode is checked, and the Speak
Print Dialog option is unchecked. The
latter is voiced by screen readers, so it should not also be self-voiced. The Tool bar option in the Show menu should
also be unselected. |

Setting JAWS Screen Reader to sleep mode |
|
|
Start Jaws
for Windows if it is not already running. Then start IVEO Viewer and turn off
its speech by pressing Crtl+Alt+S. Press Jaws key-6 to start the Jaws for
Windows configuration manager. If you get a screen asking questions about
Windows classes, tab to the cancel button and press Enter.
Press Alt+S
to go to the Configuration Manager Set-options menu. Arrow up to the
"Advanced Options" menu item and press Enter. The first item in the
Advanced Options page is "Sleep Options Enabled". Check this box by
pressing the space bar.
Tab to the
next item in Advanced Options. If the "Sleep Options Enable" box is
checked, the next item in newer versions of JFW is "Sleep Mode Unload
Synthesizer". If this is the second item, then check this box also by
pressing the space bar. Older versions of JFW do not have this second box and
do not need anything more checked to work with self-voicing programs. Tab to
the "OK" button and press Enter.
Press
Ctrl+S to bring up the "Save" dialogue box. Jaws will automatically
enter a name for the file. Unless it is default.jcf, it is recommended that you
leave the name Jaws gives it. If Jaws enters the name default.jcf, type a
different name you would like for the configuration file. Tab to OK and press
enter.
Return to
IVEO Viewer and turn its self-voicing speech back on by pressing
Ctrl+Alt+S.

Setting WINDOW-EYES to sleep mode while in IVEO Viewer |
|
|
Start
Window-Eyes if it is not already running. Then start IVEO Viewer.
Press Ctrl+ to access the Window-Eyes Voice Control Panel. Press Alt to open
the Voice Control Panel menus. Press Enter or the down arrow to enter the Voice
Control Panel File menu. The first item is "Open". Press O or Enter
on this item.
The first
item in the open submenu is "Set files". Press S or Enter to open
this item. You are now asked for the name of the set file to open. Type
silent.000 in the edit box. Alternatively you may tab to the combo box that is
next and arrow to find silent.000 in the Window-Eyes files list. Tab to ‘OK'
and press Enter. You have now loaded a set file that will put Window-Eyes to
sleep in IVEO Creator if saved.
You are
still in the Window-Eyes Voice Control Panel. Press Alt+F to enter the File
menu again. Press S or arrow down to "Save" and press Enter. Again
select and open the "Set files" option. Window-Eyes will give a default
name for the new set file, but we suggest that you change it to IVEO.000 or any
other unused name with extension .000. Tab to ‘OK' and press Enter. Window-Eyes
will now ask if you want the new set file to be associated with your IVEO
application. Press Enter to select ‘Yes'. Whenever the IVEO application is started or
entered from now on, Window-Eyes will go to sleep. |
