[NFBCS] JAWS Script Question

[Doug Lee]

priorLine and nextLine functions request moves but may not necessarily wait to return until they are
accomplished. It is often sufficient to put a pause() call below those before speaking. In more obnoxious
circumstances, event processing is more effective. You may also find the SayLineUnit function in default.jss
an interesting alternative for wrapping, depending on your environment.

Hi all,

I'm trying to reproduce the edsharp indentation level announcements since I
often lose track of where I am in vs.

I'm wrapping PriorLine and NextLine so that I can get the indentation level
before and after the move.

I'm confused about how this is working; here's my debug script:

SayString("debug "+GetLine())
PriorLine()
SayString("debug "+GetLine())
This speaks the line I was on twice, whereas the second SayString should be
speaking the line I'm currently on. I'm confused why/how this is happening,
and if there's a better way to go about this.

For example, If my file reads:

a

b

c


and I'm on b, if I navigate up from b I expect to hear:

debug: b

debug: a

instead I hear:

debug: b

debug: b

The same issue exists going down a line.



Thanks,


Ty
