Hey, Trenton. No it isn't. Autoload, Insert-A, is for Browse Mode. What I'm talking about is the ability to turn off automatic form interaction, which is a brand new feature. <smile>. How can a hot key that has been around since the earliest version of Window-Eyes that I can recall be tied to a feature that was only introduced in the WE 8 betas? Turning off automatic form interaction with the press of a hot key would enable Window-Eyes users to switch to the classic, if you will, version of Window-Eyes Browse mode without having to open the WE control panel and tab to the automatic form interaction off/ on radio buttons.

Its insert-A when browse mode is active. Unless you are talking about how Supernova does it, which is technically the same, just with a different keystroke...
