I extensively use Shift + Enter to open a link in a new window, where the
link is on a somewhat different topic than what I am currently researching.
I also use Control + Shift + Enter to open a link in a new Tab in the
foreground. As stated before the back key does not always return to the
correct position. This also allows me to follow other links in this Tab
without needing to remember how many times I should press the back key to be
where I started. I probably use Control + Tab the most. This opens a Tab
in the background that I am interested in, but let me continue on without
distraction (At least when JAWS worked correctly). Taking smart advantage
of Tab browsing and multiple browser windows can certainly help you browse
smarter and help you organize your research. Just remember, each window
requires additional memory and somewhat more memory for each Tab opened. I
also have to remember to go back to finish looking at all windows and Tabs
if I am multi-tasking with something else.

part of cobra
Hi, don't seem to have it here at all. Why are you pressing shift+enter
not just enter?

Since/around the time I installed the demo version of the cobra screen
reader, when I now open a link from an email, or a web page in a new
window using, for example, shift + enter in the webpage, I now seem to
have to alt + tab back to the original source, and then alt + tab to the
new one to get it focused on, and once or twice I have found, using
either NVDA, or jaws 11, that there seems to be a window called something
like AudioData getting/taking focus for a very short time period, but
this isn't around for very long as such, and since I see that, for
example, cobra had added a part of itsself to the startup list in the
configuration manager, I was wondering if anyone else had experienced
something similar since although unchecked that part of cobra from
startup, this minor irritation is still happening, and around the only
other change have made is installing a newer version of the gomplayer
multimedia player software, but, for example, I disabled the toolbar it
had
added to internet explorer, for example, and don't think that would really
have had that same effect, since guessing this is something like cobra
trying to somehow populate it's version of a virtual buffer or something
although I find this while it's not even actively running...?
Anyway, like said, was just wondering if anyone else had noticed
something like this, since it really seems to have occured from around
when I installed cobra.
Stay well
