Kim, It's very similar in window eyes, only it's called the mouse cursor. In addition, the mouse cursor has a unique way of moving which jaws does not, and which can be handy: instead of moving by Word (which it can do), it can move by "clip", which is a group of characters on the same line which are displayed together in the same attributes. The same attributes often indicate these characters are meant to be read together.
In any case, the answer to your question is to use the mouse cursor, controlled by keys on the numeric pad. If you don't wish to disturb the position of the mouse pointer, then you can use something called the "WE" cursor, which acts like the mouse cursor, but without moving the pointer. hth, Chip ________________________________ From: Kimsan [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, January 02, 2011 11:50 PM To: WindowEyes Subject: reading parts of a window with WE Hello: I understand that CTRL shift w will read certain parts of a window but what if I would like to read the information word by word? What would I need to do? Let me provide an example. I am running a scan using superantispyware. I would like to access the part of the screen that will tell me how long its taking but instead of evoking CTRL shift w to read that part of a window, I would like to read line by line to get the information of how long its taking and what its scanning. When I used jaws, I had to use the jaws cursor to access this information, so if anyone is using superantispyware and know what I am talking about, how would I accomplish this? Thankyou.
