Hey Rod,



Thanks for this great little app. Somehow I missed your message announcing it. The app works well. Is there any way to modify the presets short of editing the VBS file?

Hi Vic,



You know, my friend, I’ve been beating my breast ever since you wrote requesting an app with presets for 10, 50, and 100 percent hotkeys because, to be honest, it’s not my way to turn people down. What do you say to an app identical to the one you’re using now, RodMasterVolumeControl, that is, two hotkeys, namely, up and down, but instead of going up or down 10 percent at a time, the up key would go from 10 to 50 to 100, while down would go the other way, and both keys would wrap around at the ends, just like RodMasterVolumeControl does. This seems to be the easiest way of giving you what you would like, and I just love designing these simple apps that tickle people pink! Smile.



Let me know if this seems like it would work for you, Vic, or, better yet, give me the details of your ideal design, and I’ll work with you.

Smile.



Take care,



Rod Smile

Hey Rod,



I was wondering if you could add some functionality to the volume control app. I would like hotkeys to set the volume to 100% and also maybe two hotkeys to set the volume to two different preset values. Here is my rationale for wanting the two preset values. When I listen to music I turn my volume up to say about 50%. When I am just working with my computer I have it set to 12%. The way it is now it takes several keystrokes to turn it up and then turn it back down. With the custom presets you could set one for the higher volume and the other for the normal volume. What do you and others think about this idea?

Hi everyone,



I have written an app to help those Window-Eyes users who have not upgraded to version 8.0 or 8.1, and yet suffer from the situation where someone has muted the master volume of the default sound card. It is called RodMasterVolumeMuteToggler. It will work for those who have upgraded to version 8.0 or 8.1, even though this feature is built in to these versions, but that’s okay. You can always uninstall it after upgrading. (smile)



The default hot key for toggling the mute state is Control-Shift-3.



Enjoy,



Rod Hutton
