Hi


Have a look down the bottom you can quickly jump down by B for buttons until
you get to use dial pad then arrow down. There will be 4 tabs there one is
chats then press the enter key on it then arrow down. it will have chats
there old and new from people.


I would have to have a look under contacts and see if you can get the chat
stuff from that person as well.


hope this helps.

Feel free to subscribe to the skype english list where the owner of some
scripts and add ons lives, or rather is subscribed. Lol!

Go to skypeenglish.tffppodcast.com<http://skypeenglish.tffppodcast.com/> and
subscribe there.

As for your not being able to answer a call tab to the answer button and
whack it. I’ve ben doing this for years now rather than rely on keystrokes.
I personally at least as far as skype hate them. I feel I can know the
interface a lot better by tabbing rather than key strokes which might not
work, or they might depending on the day I’m having.

Hi

Which version are you using?

My computer which is running windows 10 has the windows 10 app on it also
the latest skype 8 desk top app which i am writing a tutorial for. In the
desk top version skype 8 it has the options there to accept them
automatically under calling they just have to be checked.


Just to confuse you as well there is a web version which is very much like
skype 8

I guess that’s a solution, but that’s not exactly encouraging. You figure
for such an essential command, there would be a hotkey for it that would
work outside of the program itself. I mean it already existed in older
versions (alt plus pg-up).
I’m going to have to try tomorrow with it on my laptop. I haven’t updated my
main desktop where I do nearly all of my calls so we’ll see.

Hi If i remember right when the call comes in it lands on i think it is the
accept button then press the enter key and start talking.
I am not sure if it was read out by nvda though.


I would have to get some one to give me a call to confirm again as i use
voip alot now.

Hello list,
So, I upgraded Skype for desktop on a laptop to try to get used to it before
MS kills Skype classic in September. I came across some short cut keys from:
https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12025/what-are-hotkeys-and-how-do-i-use-them-in-skype
What I’m not finding is the hotkey to answer an incoming call. I can’t
believe that there isn’t one for such a basic function, but it’s not listed
in the table. Start a call, hang up, mute, that’s all fine, but nothing for
answering a call. Am I missing something or is this really not included as a
shortcut key?
Thanks,
Cristobal
