I think the second keystroke combination bypasses needing to use the jaws
cursor as such.
My only problem with it was that I specifically wanted to try dragging and
dropping controls onto a windows application form in visual studio.net while
doing some programming work, and it didn't seem to work, but that could also
be a script issue of sorts, and found another workaround for now anyway.
Stay well

Hi, Jacob. Yes, jaws does support a version of drag and drop. I've never
had to do ti but insert left mouse button does lock the mouse button. You
do have to use the jaws cursor to drag a file to where you want it to go.

Depending on your screenreader, jaws does support a version of drag and
drop
using the jaws cursor, but it's something I haven't really tested yet,
but
here's some relevant info from the jaws help:
Left Mouse Button Lock (INSERT+NUM PAD SLASH)
This command simulates pressing down the left mouse button and holding
it.
Once pressed, the JAWS cursor can be moved with the arrow keys. JAWS will
not speak until INSERT+NUM PAD SLASH is pressed again to unlock the left
mouse button. This command can be used to drag items from one location
and
drop them in another.
Apart from that bit of info, the following is actually the keystroke they
say you should use:
Drag and Drop CTRL+INSERT+NUM PAD SLASH
I think it automatically starts dragging whatever you're currently
focused
on, and then when you're in the place you want it to go to, you hit it
again, and it'll drag/drop that object/item there.
Try turning on your keyboard help using jaws key + number row 1, and hit
that key combo twice and it'll give you a bit of better description.
This is all assuming you're using a new enough version of jaws.
Stay well

Subject: [Blind-Computing] What is keyboard equivalent for "Drag & Drop"
Hello all.
I recently purchased a talking Ipod and have had limited success with
it.
I have not been able to figure out how to put files in to a given
playlist.
I know this can be accomplished by dragging a file and dropping it in to
the desired playlist but I can't figure out the keyboard equivalent.
Cutting and pasting doesn't work. I have tried everything I can think of
with no success.
If anyone can help me out I'd sure be appreciative.
Thanks.
Pete
