It would have really been nice if they could have done without all these different cursors, its just plain confusing as h***! I've never been able to keep it all straight in my head even though I've

Mike, I don't have JAWS on this machine at the moment, so I can't test directly right now. What I really hope is now somewhere in JAWS is visible highlighting of what has focus in the virtual cursor

 Brian, Check out the settings in the message below and give them a test run to see if they'll work as advertised. Note: This setting is only available in Windows 8 and higher. Original

It's usually some button or link on some web page where just hitting enter or the space bar gets no results, I then use the pass key through function then hit enter and it works. But if I haven't

 Why is there no command for setting the Jaws to follow the mouse cursor? Or is there one? Glenn

 I've never set jaws cursor to follow the PC cursor, and I don't know that my mouse is where the PC cursor is. With control + insert + Jaws cursor key we can set the Jaws cursor to stay with the PC

Maybe it is, I have just never heard any confirmation of that and often when I need to do something like pass key through on a control, I have to first do something to select the control before I do

I always thought the Jaws cursor location is always where the mouse pointer is. Maybe this has changed over the years, but I know that in early Jaws, the jaws cursor was the mouse cursor. Glenn

But even that has its drawbacks. I have a Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 which has left and right mouse buttons below the space bar. I rarely use them because the mouse pointer has to be

I don't use the laptop layout, and I wasn't calling you out for your mistake because I didn't know it was one. I was just saying that so far, I've never had any of the JAWS simulated mouse clicks do

One example I can immediately think of, where a right mouse click helped, is on web pages, where you are trying to perform an action, like a download/save target as, and the context menu key options

Gene: Oops! I cocked up! It's CAPS LOCK+8 and CAPS LOCK+9, to click the left and right mouse buttons, if you are using the JAWS laptop keyboard layout. Dave
