JAWS Skype script revision 220 released, to fix issues in Skype 8.82
As I mentioned in another thread on this list, Skype version 8.82 came out on Friday or so and broke a few things in my scripts. Notable among these was the typing indicator sound, which began playing constantly in all chat windows. I released a temporary fix yesterday (Saturday) but now have a full release for everyone. Go to https://www.dlee.org/skype/#hist to read the release notes. The download link, as usual, is on the same page. Note that this update should only be used if you are running Skype 8.82 or later. Running this updated script revision with an older Skype version is likely to cause a few things not to work as expected. One extra bit of good news: A few of you a while back reported that Alt+1 did not work to move to the Conversations list when a group chat was in focus. This is because Alt+1 is a native Skype keystroke and it did not work in that particular circumstance. In this revision 220 of the scripts, I finally scripted around this so it does work in that case. Happy Skyping. -- Doug Lee dgl@... http://www.dlee.orgSnowmen fall from heaven, unassembled. --anon

Hi everyone.
The constant typing thing can be fixed in the verbosity dialog. Insert
plus V, then down to Typing and uncheck the checkbox.

I've always used split view and never had that problem until now. Did somebody say there is a revision 217 of Doug's scripts? I'm only getting revision 212.

Doug, thanks for that, I downloaded revision 217from the link you gave us. I had once again the issue about Windows Defender smart screen when launching the file, so I needed to press further information link and then Run anyway button.
Sarah, I am actually not sure. I always use split view mode and I had issues also in the past where typing indicators weren't working properly, or should I say weren't working at all, but I don't know if this has to do with the Skype language which is italian or with split view. That is why I asked Gary if he enabled it or not.

This update came out yesterday as far as I can tell. I fixed the Skype typing issue and another issue or two last night but don't have documentation updated yet, and so had not put out a release. For emergency update in the mean time, people can grab the installer as it evolves from https://www.dlee.org/updates/jfw_skype.exe

Would split view cause the type sound to be repeated, if I understand the issue? If not, please correct me.

I'm using nvda, but can you reload the scripts in jaws? I remember you used to be able to do so. If you can, try that in skype for its scripts. I have never had the typer sound continue when I'm not in a chat before.

The way I delete a contact, rarely though I do it, is this:
1. Type Alt+2 to bring up the contact list.
2. Find the contact.
3. Press the Menu or Application key to get a context menu for the contact.
4. Select the "Delete Contact" option and press Enter.
I just verified this process in Skype 8.78.0.159.

Latest Skype version for Windows desktop is 8.78.0.159. Not sure
if it has been updated for Microsoft Store, if you still have
8.77 and you used the Store app, try to open the Windows store,
go to the view more menu, and choose downloads and updates, and

Hi,
I think the only way to do it is to go into the person's profile.
Although there's a way to simply delete contacts, I've found that
the best way is to actually click on the "block contact" button.

Hi there. I have a few people in my contacts who are now dead but I
can't for the life of me get rid of them. Also I seem to have a lot
of contacts which say after their name, read only. Does that mean I
no longer have them on skype and I can get rid of them too? Thanks.

Re: can't delete anyone from skype.
Hey Kimmi,
It could be the wrong version of Skype you have. :-)
If you'd like some private help Europe time I'll be willing to help you out
either using jaws tandem or NVDA remote.
Best regards
Brian

Very strange. Even if I pull up the context menu on a favorited
contact and see "Remove from favorites" as a choice, I still also see "Delete contact."
I suggest trying the Microsoft Disability Answer Desk: 1-800-936-5900

Yeah but doug that's not a choice I have. I only have view profile and
remove from favorites when I go to the application key. Maybe it's
something to do with my jaws settings perhaps. I tried blocking the
person but it wouldn't go away.

The way I delete a contact, rarely though I do it, is this:
1. Type Alt+2 to bring up the contact list.
2. Find the contact.
3. Press the Menu or Application key to get a context menu for the contact.
4. Select the "Delete Contact" option and press Enter.
I just verified this process in Skype 8.78.0.159.

Yep that's the version I have. Now I tried to block the contact that
so it
would
go away, but the contact is still there. I went into view profile.

Latest Skype version for Windows desktop is 8.78.0.159. Not sure
if it has been updated for Microsoft Store, if you still have 8.77
and you used the Store app, try to open the Windows store, go to
the view more menu, and choose downloads and updates, and finally
find recover updates and you press space and verify if it's get
updated. Alternatively, pass to the Windows desktop one going here:

Bye!

Oh and to the person that asked why she wanted to delete stuff, the very
