Moderated Re: How to make JAWS Key + F3 do repeat last JAWS Find rather than bringing up the Virtual HTML Viewer?

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

If you open the jaws menu with insert=j and arrow down to utilities, right arrow to open it and arrow down to keyboard manager.

Once you hit enter to open keybaord manager, try typing jaws find and that should jump you down to the related keystrokes.

Arrow down to Jaws find next.

Mine is set to insert+f3, but I may have put that back because I recall either earlier in Jaws 2025, or more likely in Jaws 2024, this got changed.

I hope this helps get you where you need to be.

Subject: [JFW-Users] How to make JAWS Key + F3 do repeat last JAWS Find rather than bringing up the Virtual HTML Viewer?

?

For almost as long as I've been working with JAWS, and only changing recently, one invoked a JAWS Find with JAWS Key + Ctrl + F and then, after having found the first instance, hitting JAWS Key + F3 was JAWS Find Next.? This followed the standard find paradigm for web browsers and other things where after doing the initial find with Ctrl + F, the F3 key was find next instance of last thing searched for.

?

Now, suddenly (or so it seems, I honestly have no idea exactly when the change occurred),? hitting JAWS Key + F3 brings up the JAWS Virtual HTML viewer, which is not what I want for that shortcut.? I wish to maintain the parallel between standard browser find and JAWS Find as it always had been.

?

What I can't seem to locate is where I'd assign JAWS Key + F3 back to being JAWS Find Next.? Any assistance appreciated.
