Hi!
It's all very well to say that a keystroke such as alt+page up should be
added to the JAWS scripts of Skype 8, but that won't help users of other
screen-readers. I'm not sure that such a keystroke is necessary anyway.
Doug's way of answering Skype calls seems rather complicated to me ,
although that may make seeing who the caller is a bit easier. I am lucky
that the Skype calls I receive are from people I know, and in most cases I
have warning that I am going to receive a call, so I go into the Skype
window in Skype 8, which I tend to leave open while Skype is running
anyway,
and press Tab till I find the Answer button. There's a Decline button too,
which comes before the Answer button while tabbing through the window, so
if
you don't want to take the incoming call, you can use that instead.
If you don't want to keep the Skype window open like I do, you can
minimise
it with alt+f4 like you did in older versions of Skype, and pressing Enter
on the Skype icon on your desktop will open the Skype window again. Since
I
rarely minimize the Skype window while my Skype 8 is running, I don't know
if an incoming call will make that window appear, that's why I mentioned
how
to open it while Skype is still running.
I hope this helps!
Bye for now!
From Clare

Hi Doug,

Can't be made a script that executes these hotkeys, a script stored in
default.jss?
If it would be possible, we could assign a hotkey for it, say Alt+PgUp,
and
one of the problems could be solved.

I hope that it is not a problem that the window uses a web widget, because
that can't be solved.

The plan for taking an incoming call in Skype 8 is this:

1. Make a shortcut key that immediately puts focus on the Skype 8 window.
Do this by assigning a shortcut key, such as Ctrl+Shift+Alt+K, to the
Skype 8 Desktop shortcut.

2. When a call comes in, type your shortcut, tab for caller ID, then tab
to the Answer button and press Space.

This is more keystrokes than Alt+PgUp was, but it is also less prone to
the, "Oh goodness, I did not mean to pick up that call!" situation. This
situation would be my description of most calls I get, because of spam
calls that
are made to my phone number, which I route through Skype specifically so
I

can handle such things intelligently.

My experience says Ctrl+Shift+P never answered a call in Skype 8, but
that
if you happened to be displaying the same contact that called you and
you
typed Ctrl+Shift+P, Skype tried to initiate a call to that person and
simply
connected to the incoming call as a result. This could easily give the
illusion that Ctrl+Shift+P answers calls if you are testing the feature
and thus are likely to be showing that exact contact when a call
arrives.

Hi!
I don't think GWConnect will ever come back, partly because GWMicro was
taken over as someone else has already mentioned, partly because some
special API which allowed GWConnect to be created no longer exists. So there
are really only two choices now as far as I can tell, either Skype 8 or the
Windows 10 version.
Bye for now, and happy skyping, whatever version you use for it!

character, give him power." -Abraham Lincoln

My experience says Ctrl+Shift+P never answered a call in Skype 8, but that
if you happened to be displaying the same contact that called you and you
typed Ctrl+Shift+P, Skype tried to initiate a call to that person and
simply
connected to the incoming call as a result. This could easily give the
illusion that Ctrl+Shift+P answers calls if you are testing the feature
and thus are likely to be showing that exact contact when a call arrives.

Sarah, I though they wanted to know the command for Windows which is ctrl+shift+p as someone else pointed out already. Cmd+shift+r is for Mac users. Bye! Barbuz

I don’t remember the URL Sarah or was it Doug Lee gave out for keyboard shortcuts. Sorry.

Focus the person who do you want to call, then press ctrl+shift+p and ctrl+shift+k for audio and video calls respectively!

Ctrl+shift+p and ctrl+shift+k are receiving audio and video calls respectively!

Ctrl+e will end both audio and video calls!
