Hi guys. Not sure between the upgrade to ie9 or Windows updates, but
somewhere in the mix, one strange take that wasn't there in IE8 is the
cursor navigation on a given webpage.
At this point, I could be on a desktop and ues the 2 and 5 keys and
virtually read the whole desktop: same was true with IE8. In 9, on any
given website, hitting the 2 and 5 keys on the numpad seems to result in
a roadmap to nowhere as every touch of the 2 and 5 keys results in a
ding everytime. Its almost as if the screen doesn't exist with those
keystrokes yet is very much there on the main screen. In other versions
of Win-eyes this might've been called unrestricting but to use that
older lingo, its almost as if the mouse pointer is entirely locked if
not damned near totally restricted.
That said, get off IE or even Firefox and it suddenly reads the
desktop freely and totally uninhibited? I've read a few things on this
set-up but somehow managed to get the left mouse key down and a reboot
had to fix that thing. The real thing here is to allow the cursor keys
to read whatever's on the IE or Firefox screen, basically any webpage,
as if it were the desktop. It worked in IE8 so I'm not sure where or
how the restriction came into play. Even more pressing then why it
happened, is how to restore that phase of Window-Eyes to match up with
IE9. I could even read subfolder names in Outlook or Thunderbird but
get me to be able to read anything on any website with the 2 and 5 keys
on that numpad results in a ding, a major inhibitor needing to be
unrestricted.
