Now, most people use laptops, with compact keyboards that typically don’t have a numpad. Freedom Scientific added a laptop modifier key -- Caps Lock. You can use laptop commands on either a desktop or a laptop computer, but the default setting when you download JAWS initially is desktop, so if you want to be able to use the laptop modifier key (Caps Lock), you need to change this in the JAWS settings. You can access JAWS settings in an area called JAWS Startup Wizard. See below for instructions on how to change your settings for a beginner user. JAWS 2019 Startup Wizard: Change your settings! ● Turn JAWS on ● Go to JAWS program ● Alt to get to menu bar ● Right arrow to get to Help menu ● Down arrow until you get to Startup Wizard, Enter to open ● Page 1: Improve Freedom Scientific Products ● Page 2: Change the rate of speech, punctuation, and typing echo (characters and words is best for beginners) ● Page 3: Choose when you want JAWS to initiate for your student -- logon screen is best! ● Page 4: Choose keyboard layout (laptop or desktop -- laptop if Student uses Caps Lock key as default JAWS key!); also choose “Use Virtual Ribbon menus” (this means that students can navigate the ribbon in Word similar to the old style of menu bar navigation in Word 2003 -- it’s more straightforward and I recommend this setting!) ● Page 5: Leave default settings ● Page 6: These settings relate to using Braille display; leave default if you are not using a display -- otherwise set output/input to UEB ● Page 7: These settings relate to using Braille display; leave default if you are not using a display -- otherwise consider turning off Flash Messages and set “Placement of Status Cells” to “none” ● Press Finish!

  • Introduction to Keyboard & Mouse Skills
    Introduction to Keyboard & Mouse Skills PART I: Mouse The mouse is used to interface with your computer. If you’re right- handed, rest your right hand comfortably over the mouse and your index finger will be on the left-click button, your middle finger will be on the wheel, and your ring finger will be on the right-click button. Some left-handed people find it more comfortable to move the mouse to the left of the keyboard and adjust their fingers accordingly. Here are the ways you can use your mouse: Navigate on your screen o Move the mouse and the pointer on your screen moves in tandem with your motion. This allows you to find and select items intuitively o Wheel: spin the wheel up or down to go up or down the ‘page’ of your screen (great for use on the Internet) Select or launch something on your screen (left-click) o Left-click is the most common mouse action. If someone says to click on something, they mean left-click o Left-click on an icon to select it o Double-click means click twice very rapidly on the left side: . For something on your desktop or in file explorer, a single left-click will select the item. This allows you to move, delete, or otherwise arrange the item . To launch an item that can be moved around in this way, you need to double- click . Note that if you’re in an application in which you cannot move around the items (on the Internet, for example), then a single left-click will launch what your pointer is resting on Get a contextual menu (right click) o Right-clicking on an item gives you a short-cut menu, that is specific to what your pointer was resting on.

  • Hot Key Reference Guide
    Hot Key Reference Guide Hot Keys for Desktops, Laptops & Touch Screens This information is available in alternative formats from www.YourDolphin.com Introduction 1 This booklet lists the most useful hot keys to control the three editions of Dolphin SuperNova: Magnifier Magnifier & Speech Magnifier & Screen Reader A list of all the hot keys for your SuperNova software can be found in the user manual. To open the manual, press F1 or click the “Help” button on the SuperNova Control Panel. To get context help and a list of available hot keys while using particular applications press CAPS LOCK + F1 from within your application. Most users prefer the default Dolphin hot key set as the most popular Speak commands can be operated by pressing a single key. When a hot key includes “NUMPAD”, this means that the key is situated on the numeric keypad, a block of keys usually on the right end of your keyboard. On a laptop the Numpad keys are usually available by holding down the FN key. Where the Numpad is unavailable or difficult to use, we recommend using the Laptopeyboard K layout. Throughout this document, Laptop hot keys that differ from the desktop are shown inside square brackets. Choosing the Keyboard Layout and Hot Key Set While SuperNova is running, open the SuperNova Control Panel by holding LEFT CONTROL and pressing SPACEBAR. Then press ALT + G to open the “General” menu, press K to open the “Keyboard and hot keys” dialogue where you can choose: keyboard layout, keyboard language and preferred hot key set. Press OK to save any changes and close the dialogue.

    PC Basics Bronze Level Keyboard Call us on 03333 444019 Learning Guide Getting Started: Using the Keyboard The Keyboard is, along with the mouse, vital to controlling your computer. Keyboards work by translating your keystrokes into a signal that a computer can understand. Keyboards usually have a standard layout but there are some “special keys” and “shortcuts” which are helpful to know about: Light sensors (for Tab Key Function Keys Delete Number Lock and Caps Lock) Escape Caps Lock Backspace Space Bar Number Keys Shift Enter Control Alt Arrow Keys Menu Key Windows Key Tip : The keyboard shown above is the FULL version that would come as a separate piece of equipment when you have a DESKTOP computer. The keyboard that is built-in on LAPTOPS is sometimes a smaller version of the one above. Please see over for a full explanation of all the above keys and buttons… Learning Guide Keyboard Commands Tab: Tab is used to advance the cursor to the next “tab spot”, which could be in a form (on the Internet) or in a letter (word processor) Caps Lock: Locks the keyboard so that anything you type is in CAPITAL LETTERS. Usually the computer shows some kind of warning that you have pressed this key e.g. a light on the keyboard Shift: Holding down the Shift key (usually denoted with a ↑on the key) has a number of uses, both to type capital letters and to access the symbols on the upper part of a key, e.g. the £ sign above the number 3.
