Here's Marcy with today's Jaws tip. Unmute be heard.
Hello, this is Marcie with another Jaws tip for you to help you take a piece of the Jaws pie and become productive, independent and efficient with the most powerful screen reader for Microsoft Windows today, what I'm going to teach you is how to select items in a list view. I'll teach you how to select all of the items in the list view. I'll teach you how to select contiguous items or items that are right next to each other in the list view, and I'll teach you to select non contiguous items in that list view.
My list view is called selection Zoom selection selection items view, and I'll introduce. You to the items in selection. I have folder A, B, C, and D, so I'll press home and I'll fold b two so there's folder B. Folder A is above it. Folder A one a five fold b. Two a five folder b folder C three folder D. Folder E. So I. Have folders a through e. Please remember. That when you select a folder and copy it or move it to another location, everything in that folder comes with it.
So let's select first everything in the list view. So to select everything in the list view, we press Ctrl A alpha selected. Folder a zero 40 524 so there it is. Everything is selected. To read what is selected. To have Jaws read it, you press. Jaws key shift down arrow folder a 0405-2423 05:00 p.m. File Folder Folder B 040524 230 04:00 p.m. File Folder folder C 0405-2423 04:00 p.m. File Folder Folder D 0405-2432 07:00 p.m. File Folder folder E 0405-2432 07:00 p.m.
File folder so then you know what. Exactly you have selected. To take selection away from any of these items or from all of these items, I just have to move any arrow key and this is the same with selected text. So I'll press up arrow folder D. Four or five, and I'll go all. The way up to folder A. Folder. A, one to five, and I'll teach contiguous selection.
So I want to select folder A, B, and C. So I'll press the shift key on folder a. Pressing the down arrow selects folder B. Folder B two five selected folder B. Pressing the down arrow selects folder C. Selected folder C. So now these folders. Are selected and I can copy them or cut them or do what I need to do with these folders. For these list view items again, to read the selected text, I'll press Jaws key plus shift plus down arrow.
Folder a 0405-2423 05:00 p.m. File Folder folder B 040524 230 04:00 p.m. File Folder Folder C 0405-2423 04:00 p.m. File Folder so again, I'm going to. Use my up arrow and go back up to folder A. Folder B. Folder. A one to five. Now I'm going to select non contiguously where I'm going to skip folders B and D and select only folders A, C, and E. So on. Folder A, I'll press the control key. I'll continue to keep my control key held down. Use my down arrow to go past.
Folder B, not selected folder B two. Of five I'm still holding my control. Key and I press the down arrow. Again, not selected folder C, three of. Five and I do want to include folder C in my selection. So still holding my control key. I'll press the spacebar selected. So then I will use my down. Arrow not selected folder D four five skip folder D not selected folder E five a five and press spacebar.
So I was holding my control key the whole time. Now let's see what's selected again. It's Jaws Key shift down Arrow Folder. A 040524 230 05:00 p.m. File Folder Folder C 0405-2423 04:00 p.m. File Folder Folder E 0405-2432 07:00 p.m. File folder and that is how you. Select contiguous, non contiguous, and all of the items in a list view. So take a piece of the jaws pie and become productive, independent and efficient with jaws. Questions? Comments Feedback?
