What's Coming in the April Update to J-Say!

All the below features without exception have been suggested by users of J-Say.

The command, Select a Program, has been changed. The purpose of this command is to bring into view a list of programs you have running. This has been changed significantly to reduce the spoken output as you are navigating the list. Use the commands, Move Down, and, Move Up, to navigate the list. The command, Confirm That, will switch to the desired program.

A full complement of commands exists to control the magnification component of ZoomText Fusion. Approximately 70 percent of all our new customers are using Fusion, so it made complete sense to do this. For example, you can switch to the Fusion interface, controlling many of the visual enhancements together with magnification.

Voice commands are included to work with the new Picture Smart feature of JAWS 2019. The purpose of this feature is to scan a picture and it will return a text description to provide guidance as to what might be in it.

A new interface has been created to add words to the JAWS Dictionary, either globally or on an application by application basis. While the Dictionary Manager is accessible, this will make it quick and easy for less experienced users.

The Copy Email Address command will now respect working in corporate and Microsoft Exchange environments where the Email address may not be displayed. It is therefore easier to create J-Say Contacts.

You can now more easily get to the Default file when working in JAWS Quick Settings or the Dictionary Manager.

You can now access Paste Special by voice for Microsoft Word and Microsoft Outlook.

There are some other small improvements as well which will be fully listed as and when the next update is released. It is expected this will be on or around 15 april.
