Hi Tom,
For me it has been trial and error. However, sometimes one is reading
instructions for a program, and it asks you to click on something that you
just cannot find with the normal PC cursor. Then it is a good bet you want
to switch to the JAWS cursor. Then there are programs that lock the pc
cursor on a particular spot on the screen and you can't move it. If you want
to use that program you are going to need to use the JAWS cursor. I would
recommend using the jaws key plus f2 then arrow to keyboard manager. Then
press enter to open it. Next press d until you hear default. Then tab once.
You will then be in a long list of commands specific to your keyboard lay
out. Press J until you start hearing the commands related to the JAWS
cursor. To exit This menu, do an alt f followed by x. you should land back
where you started. There are a lot of interesting things one can do when
they learn more commands to do with the JAWS cursor.
By the way. I am mostly self-taught on the JAWS system. I have to admit
though, I have asked a allot of questions on lists like this. So, I
encourage you to give it a go. It can be allot of fun.
God bless,
Mark
God Loves you!

well, not really. how do you know you need to use the jaws cursor? is it a
trial and error method, or is there some type signal?

Hi
It depends on if you are using a laptop or standard keyboard, how you
will access the JAWS cursor. For insta instance on a laptop one must press
the caps lock followed by the letter p. On a standard keyboard the jaws
cursor has its own key.
The reason you may want to access the JAWS cursor is to read or
interact with information that the PC cursor isn't able to get too.
Sometimes one has to put the jaws cursor over an item and simulate a left
mouse click.
I find some programs require I access the jaws cursor and others do
not.
I hope this helps.
God bless,
Mark

I'm a self taught JAWS user, and not too sure when or how to use the JAWS
cursor. I've openned many emails being told that " it's a back and forth
JAWS/PC cursor " thing. I'd really like some help in knowing when switching
to the JAWS cursor is needed, and how to navigate a page with it. Thanks,
Tom
