JAWS Skype script revision 220 released, to fix issues in Skype 8.82
Doug Lee
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.

Hi Doug, thanks for the report about new revision of the Skype scripts which I just installed, and also for the answer on the other thread about Windows defender. The alt+1 fix that you made is actually causing a strange situation with this command when using revision 220: even if the conversations list pops up normally, it tells me "field not found".
Bye!

You will probably need to translate the scConvList constant in the XML file to avoid that message. The command
still works because it will simulate the native Alt+1 command when it can't find the field.

Two things I missed in my earlier reply:
First, there is another cause of that message: If you type Alt+1 while in a split-view window (a separate chat
window) or an active call window, the field really won't be in the window; but the Alt+1 will then be sent to
Skype and will switch focus to the main Skype window.
Second, the translation for the scConvList constant must be exactly, including letter casing, the name of the
Conversations list in Skype itself.
