Hi Bill, Mike and Darran,
I do use the "Select and Copy from Virtual Cursor" option to
copy text from IE to the clipboard and then paste it into a Word document.
However, I have encountered a continuing problem using this option with
Windows 10, JAWS 17 and IE 11:
If I press Insert v when in a web page in IE and choose the "Select and Copy
from Virtual Cursor" and then press Enter on the OK button, it does work for
a while. However, the next time I go to a web page and copy that page to the
clipboard and paste it into a Word document, it might work or it might
revert to the default option, which is "Select and Copy Full Content Using
Onscreen Highlight."
I contacted FS about this, but anything I have tried hasn't
succeeded.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Don

Hi, Mike. You Wrote:
3. If you choose the, From Virtual Cursor option, this copies the text with
formatting. If you choose the, Full Content Using Onscreen Highlight
option, this will copy the text without formatting.
Actually, it is the reverse. If you choose the, From Virtual Cursor, option,
it will copy plain text. If you choose the, Full Content Using Onscreen
Highlight, option, it will copy full content including formatting.

Hi Darran,
Another option to try is:
1. While in IE, you didn't say which browser so I'm assuming IE, press,
Insert / Jaws Key, to open Quick Settings Internet Explorer.
2. Arrow down to, Virtual Cursor Options, & under this heading is Select &
Copy, & here you have 2 choices which you press the spacebar to toggle
between them.
3. If you choose the, From Virtual Cursor option, this copies the text with
formatting. If you choose the, Full Content Using Onscreen Highlight
option, this will copy the text without formatting.
Take care.
Mike

Try shift-control-v, then arrow down through the options.

Subject: JAWS 17 and Copying Web text
Hi List.
I'm having a brain freeze here, and I can't remember for the life of me
which setting I need to alter to allow me to copy and paste text from a
webpage into a word document?
At the moment what I'm copying is not what's being pasted!
I've been into the Settings Centre, but I can't find the relevant check box,
or even recall what it is I should be looking for. My stumbling about in
there is getting me nowhere in a hurry!
Any and all help gratefully received.
Thanks.
Darran
