When I launched Skype 8.51.0.92 this morning, I heard that I had one notification. I dutifully wandered off to the Notifications tab and found a notification that said "Introducing Split View Mode," o

Answering a couple questions asked in various places: If you find an slman.jcf file in your JAWS user folder, it is safe and perhaps wise to delete it. The revision 129 shown in the installer and by I

Yes; browser download cache perhaps.

I don't know why you would get vevision 121; the file posted on my site is updated. However, due to my haste at releasing, the recorded revision number in the installer and for Insert+Q for this revis

In the Q&A message I posted earlier today, also quoted below, I mentioned that I needed to address the problem of user changes to the Command key landing in the wrong file. I have now done this, and p

This is my attempt to address several questions and concerns expressed both on and off this list regarding Skype 8.51 and/or my scripts for it. This message covers Skype 8.51, the JAWS scripts for Sky

The "message sent" notification is sent to a list control in the main Skype window. In normal view, that is in focus; so JAWS speaks it. I'm betting that JAWS ignores it in split view because it is us

I have released an update to the Skype 8 scripts to make JAWS name the split-view chat windows including online status and/or mood text, as is already done for conversations displayed inside the main

In the line Index=skypeelectron, there needs to be no spaces. "skypeelectron" is written as one word. That will probably make things work as intended.

Not sure why you say it's bad news. I'm saying most things can work under older JAWS versions if you update ConfigNames.ini as I described. The one thing I'm not sure I can address for older JAWS vers

I now have Skype 8.51.0.86 running in Split View mode. I do not have the latest August update to JAWS 2019 installed yet. This message will provide information on using this new mode with my existing

Does Insert+Q in a chat window say Revision... or Chrome?

Aha! I had not looked in the right place since upgrading, largely because I was told the feature was not in my build lol. In any case, just one scant minute ago, I got Split View activated over here.

I will want to look at supporting split-view mode; but as it is in an Insider version only, I currently don't have it to test. To address a remark in a related email: "Compact List mode" is something

I finally got Skype 8.51 onto my laptop, which allowed me to work out the following trick for using my scripts without installing the JAWS 2019 August update. Note that because the scripts do not load

I'm a bit reluctant to reply to this, but I will... The word "refused" in your post is probably a rough translation and not intended as a statement that I was unwilling to help you. Just in case of an

Send your ConfigNames.ini file from the JAWS user folder (not the shared folder). That file is what decides when to load the scripts. There may be entries with "skypeelectron" on the right side of the

I haven't managed to test Skype 8.51 because it is not available in Check for Updates to me, and I don't want to run an Insider build on this laptop in place of the production Skype. I do consider Sky

I'm sure I could say a lot, but there is only one thing needing to be said: This topic is not the topic of this mailing list; and therefore, I discourage replies here. I'm sorry to have to say that, b

I did not get as many testers as I hoped for, but all reports I did get were good... So I am releasing what is now revision 121 of the Skype 8 (Electron) scripts. These are functionally identical to t
