Moderated Jaws touch cursor #advisory
Greetings!
Greetings!
I have a touch screen on my personal laptop. Frankly, I just don’t use it. Nothing says you have to use it, even if it’s available. Now, the only problem I have and some day I’ll get around to calling Microsoft accessibility on this, is that the touch keyboard will pop-up when I log in some times and I cannot figure a way to get rid of it other than to get to the tiny “x” button that I can barely see. The problem with just leaving it on screen is that it’s presence nullifies the Control key. So, if I’m in Outlook and try to press Control Y to open the go to folder dialog, the control key won’t register.
I’m not sure that there really is a way to use the touch screen with JAWS. When I used Window Eyes, I could at least hit a button on the screen if I could see it or a sighted assistant was helping me and wanted to use the touchscreen, but JAWS doesn’t seem to work that way and I havent’ learned the method for using gestures on the screen. Now I just turn off JAWS if a sighted person is helping me with something and wants to use the touch gestures.
