Well, this sounds like a big brother bug to me. I don't use Visual
Studio so I can't check it out. But just for the heck of it, I'd try
turning off apps and see if you still have the same problem. Then I'd
take Window-Eyes out of the SysTray so you'd have it in the Alt-Tab
order and see if you can get at it that way. Otherwise I haven't a clue
as to what would be blocking access to it and locking things up.
Hth,

Hi Tom,
Well, it would seem I've stumbled across a larger problem. This is what I
tried:
1 - Loaded up W-E 7.5.4;
2 - Loaded VS2010 Professional;
3 - Loaded my c++ project;
4 - Set a break point in a code module;
5 - Pressed F5 to build and run the project in debug mode;
6 - Once the target application had successfully built and appeared in the
foreground, I selected options within it that would force the code to
encounter the break point. Execution passed back to VS2010 with the focus
set on the line of code at the break point;
7 - Pressed Ctrl+Backslash to bring up the W-E Control Panel prior to trying
your custom highlight definition steps. Unfortunately, the Control Panel
didn't appear and everything froze. I loaded another product and found that
I could shut down debug mode then W-E came back to life.
Thought I'd better report this experience. O/S is Windows 7/32.
Best wishes.

No problem. I hope it's helpful. I've tried to ward off the a script is the
answer to everything outlook. So I look to set files first. And they're
often much quicker, easier, and more dependable.

Tom

That's very helpful - thanks Tom. I've pretty much forgotten
everything I knew about Window-Eyes, so I've got to get back up to speed
fast.

I haven't done this for years, but if the cursor is replaced by a
highlight you can set highlight to on under General, Highlight. This
tells Window-Eyes to look for a highlight with the arrows, tab, and
control-tab keys. You may also have to manually set the highlight
color for the window. Or, not knowing anything about exactly what
you're dealing with, if each line is highlighted you could set the
cursor keys to read highlight or define a speak window with its attributes
set to the highlight colors.

Tom

OK,
It's been a couple of years since I last wrote any Window-Eyes script
code, so I guess I now have the excuse to spend the time to listen to
Chip's tutorials. I'm under time pressure for this c++ project, but I
guess there's no known quick fix.
Best wishes.

Perhaps a script would work.
It is likely either a graphic or color indicates the point of
interest in the code base and should be able to be found so long as
it is
consistent.
Let me know how it works when you get there since I will be working
with the debugger some day and will need to create some script code
to avoid accessibility issues with that real-time feature myself.
