Re: jaws cursor follows the pc cursor

In Jaws 2019 and maybe later versions, you press the insert + control + the minus key on the numpad.  To make it stay put while holding down the insert and control press the minus key twice rapidly after you get it set where you want it.

This would probably require a Jaws repair or a call to tech support.  I've Haven't run into this problem and don't have a clue as to what to do.  Please let the list know when you find out how to fix this issue.  Thanks much.

it is not turning off permanently.
i found out it is doing this globally. no matter what program i am running when
i reload jaws 2019 , it will be on.
there must be a setting in the default script file i have to change but i don't
know what to look for.

The keystroke should turn it off permanently until the keystroke is pressed
again to turn it on.

Hi Net bat,

Press, Insert, Control + Numpad minus / Jaws cursor key.  This keystroke is a
toggle so it'll turn this feature both on and off.
