Shortcut for the back button doesn't work
Léonie Watson <tink@...>
Hello,
I've just installed Skype 8.55.0.141 on a Windows 10 machine with a fresh install of Jaws 2020, and version 137 of the Jaws scripts, and I can no longer get the control 1 shortcut to work. Instead I have to tab around to find the back button. I've tried reinstalling both Skype and the Jaws scripts but it hasn't helped. I've restarted both my laptop and Jaws each time, but that hasn't worked either. Help welcome. Thanks Léonie. -- @LeonieWatson Carpe diem.

that doesn't work for me either, and i'm sure it isn't active in this version.

I'm sorry, that might be something new to me... Anyway, with Skype 8.x (not only 8.55), alt+1 should focus the conversations list, alt+2 the contact list. I never heared anything that you could do with ctrl+1 in Skype 8. Bye! Barbuz -- Inviato da Thunderbird su Windows 10

You're right, I meant alt not control.

Léonie, I failed to answer this over month-old message; but typically, unanswered emails sit in my inbox until I do; and that happened here. I am slating for implementation in the Skype Electron scripts a faster way to click

the Back button, though I could not reproduce your specific issue myself. I'd be curious to know if this still happens to you. Sorry it took me so long to answer.

ctrl1 doesn't work as a back keystroke for me either. I also have to tab round to the back button. I'm running exactly the same as leonie.

It does still happen, but a bit of experimentation has found that maximising the window seems to solve the problem - although the default/original size of the window is perfectly normal according to sighted people I've checked with.

I'm sure the window maximizing thing means that window size can govern what's included in a window in Skype Desktop. Good to know; thanks for the quick reply.

And for all else watching, keep in mind that there was a typo in the message I was answering: Alt+numbers jump to parts of Skype, not Ctrl+numbers.

I am told that the Back button is no longer present in Skype for Windows Desktop as of at least Skype 8.58 if not 8.57. Léonie, do you still encounter difficulties with this? I was starting to implement a shortcut when I

You're right, the back button doesn't seem to exist in 8.58! I haven't experienced any problems getting alt 1 to work lately though.
