statistics up here on the screen but if we use our arrow keys up and down i'm pressing them we
we don't get any feedback it's just like in the word count dialog what we can do here though is
virtualize this control this is a jaws feature we can press insert shift v as in victor or if you're

space edit page 3. now for a few keyboard commands that we can use to check spelling
and grammar without having to go into the editor i'm going to go over here to this other document
ctrl f6 ctrl f6 test edit document 2.0 all right so the first one i want to show you will
allow you to bring up a list of spelling errors in your document now remember earlier
when we were in the word options and in those settings we had a couple of check boxes that
would enable you to check spelling as you type and grammar as you type so those need to be
checked for these keyboard commands to work jaws command this is a jaws command alt shift
l please wait processing four items spelling errors dialogue list one list view us or two
or four all right so we have a list of items or spelling misspelled words here and it put me on
the second one i was probably in that location in my document if i press up arrow freedom wonderful
so that's the first one and we could just navigate through these so from here if i tab i just get an
ok and a cancel but if i press enter right here it's going to take me to that place in my document
so i don't need to tab ok so puts me on the word it puts me on the first letter of that word
it tells me it's misspelled so from here i can press shift f10 or applications key and i get
a context menu applications menu spelling sub menu and leaving menus all right and if i down
arrow menu at the dictionary a i get some options ignore all g c more s leaving menus user similar
to operator consumer worker split button and by the way c-more would bring you to the editor and
give you more options here is the correct word so i could press enter if i wanted to change that
and it would bring me back to my document escape and i'm going to press escape disk escape leaving
menus test edit document two dot docs word edit all right another way to do that is to press alt
f7 alt f7 selected misspelled us or spelling double check if this is correct suggestions
to choose from user split button and again we have a suggestion here and we can press our down
arrow key ignore all button we can ignore it menu more options sub menu and we have
more options and again if we corrected this it would bring us back to our document and then if
you want to move on to the next spelling error you can press alt f7 again i'm going to press
escape escape escape edit so and one thing i do want to tell you about that keyboard command
is sometimes you'll press it you'll correct the world take you back to your document you press
it again and then it'll say okay what that means is it's on an error that's already been corrected
if that happens just press escape press down arrow and press alt f7 it will go to the next error that
will check that will check your spelling and your grammar all right so let's go to the top
of the document training top of file blank heading level one so another way to navigate through spell
misspelled words is to turn on your quick nav keys you're going to do that with insert z zulu
and this enables you to navigate through your document using letters so we don't want to type
in our document so from here we can press the letter m to navigate through the spelling errors
freedom f-r-e-d-o-m thanks to your valuable suggestions and feedback that misspelled freedom
scientific user education and outreach team introduced many enhancements in 2021. so it reads
the word and it reads the sentence and you could just keep pressing m to navigate or shift m to go
to the previous spelling error from here you could use that alt f7 we talked about you could use um
the shift f10 and the applications key when you do that it's going to turn quick keys off so
if you're using quick keys you're going to need to turn them back on in order to keep using the
letter m so i'm going to go ahead and turn them off quick keys off all right one more keyboard
command here to get a list of grammatical errors you're going to press insert shift g please wait
processing three items jaws version 2022.2110.36 ilm enter test edit document two dot docs word
grammatical errors dialog list one list view in 2021 the user education and outreach team launched
a survey in order to collect data on how our users learn to operate our low vision hardware products
all right that was very a lot of information there and read the name of the document some other stuff
but this is a list of grammatical errors and i could down arrow we made updates to our jaws
and zoom text certification programs and i could press enter on one to navigate to it
enter we made updates to our jaws all right and it takes me to the first word in that sentence
w and i just pressed right arrow i pressed right arrow and left arrow to get back to that w and
from here i could press alt f7 to correct this error pressing shift f10 here would not give me
suggestions for grammar that just works for spelling but i could press alt f7
all right finally i want to show you how to check a document again once you've already
checked it and why you might want to do that we're going to go back into word options
by pressing alt and the letter f as in foxtrot and i'm going to press t for tango t options and keep
us edit document two dot dots word list box word options general one of eleven sorry about that
it was still reading so i pressed alt f is in fox trot t for tango and i'm going to press p
for proofing okay now i could either press tab multiple times to get to
this doc this uh recheck document button but i heard it say alt k so i'm going to press alt k
now okay proofing when correcting spelling and grammar and word recheck document button alt
plus y word options dialog microsoft word dialog this operation resets the spelling checker and the
grammar checker so that word will recheck words and grammar you previously checked and chose to
ignore do you want to continue yes button alt plus y all right so alt k as in kilo and what this does
so i don't know if you guys have ever experienced this but i've accidentally ignored words i didn't
mean to before and when you do that you know you might think where in my document was that
you can go in here and you can tell it to recheck your document what it's going to do
is it's not going to undo your spelling and grammar check but it is going to
uncheck everything that you ignored so that you have an opportunity to go back and recheck those
things and decide whether you really wanted to ignore them so if we were to press enter here
on yes that's what would happen so i'm going to press escape escape test edit escape so
one more thing to mention here if you're doing a spell check or grammar check
and you press escape on one of those you know suggestions and you press escape because maybe
you want to read something in the document it puts you in that place in your document wherever that
suggestion wherever that what it considers might be an error wherever that is so
focus is going to be wherever that error is and so you can you could correct it manually you know you
can go back into your spell check and resume so i just wanted to make you aware of that Freedom
