Re: [JAWS-Users] Invisible screen
when I'm not trying to use them at all, so that's not an option for me. My Think Pad T480s though has a track point, and two mouse buttons just below the space bar but above the otuch pad which hasn't proven to be too particularly deadly so is still on, I can just left click with that to get my verification. It doesn't work to simulate a left click with JAWS using caps lock num row 8, I'm assuming num pad multiply wouldn't work either. Thanks for reading, hope this is useful.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Invisible screen
Hi Leonard, Try the following: From: Carlos I believe pressing WindowsKey+P and selecting "Projector Only" will disable the display as long as you don't have a secondary monitor connected. This should be safe since the setting is reset after rebooting. Carlos From: Vicki Thank you. This is exactly what I was looking for. It saves so much on my battery usage.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Invisible screen
Hi Leonard, If you're running Windows 10 & Jaws 2018 there's a feature called, Screen Shade, which darkens the screen so others can't see it. This feature uses a layered keystroke. The keystroke for the desktop layout is: Insert / Jaws key & Spacebar, let-up then press, the Print Screen button. This is a toggle keystroke, so it will turn the Screen Shade feature on & off.

In windows 8.1, I was able to press windows key plus the letter p. I would then tab through this to "second screen only" then press enter. It would then say, "project and then no". I would tab to yes and press enter. I have not been able to make this work properly in windows 10 though.
