Re: [JAWS-Users] when to use the jaws cursor
Using the JAWS cursor is brilliant for moving around the screen, navigating away from the focus for example. It is like moving the mouse around and asking JAWS to tell you what you are moving over. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of JOHN HUFFMAN Sent: 05 June 2013 19:44 To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] when to use the jaws cursor Tom, I can tell you how to switch from the PC to JAWS cursor.

Re: [JAWS-Users] when to use the jaws cursor
This is a great question, and I thought I'd speak up to try and answer. The JAWS cursor, is represented on screen to a visual person, as the mouse pointer. While it is not so necessary today, in the past when we did not have as much accessibility built into to the applications and OS, there were many more options that you would have to look around the screen (explore so to speak) in areas that the PC focus was not able to move. For example: A window title, a status line at the bottom of a window, or static text in a dialog box maybe. In these cases, you could Route JAWS to PC in order to bring it to Window with focus, and begin to explore around. The JAWS cursor speaks in a different voice (Pitch) so you can tell when one is active over the other. JAWS users who have been using JAWS for over 10 years, are more likely to have learned to use the JAWS cursor and they tend to use it more today as well.

Re: [JAWS-Users] when to use the jaws cursor
When to use JAWS cursor? The answer is simple! When you try navigate with PC cursor and you hear nothing just blank or simply you hear nothing. Then switch to JAWS cursor and explore the screen with it. You can use it if you meet an application which is not accessible. For example if it is a QTE application.
