HIH, Humberto -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kimber Gardner Sent: Thursday, April 30, 2015 12:56 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] drag and drop -- I must be doing something wrong I followed the directions as given. But nothing happens. When I press the control + insert + numpad slash the first time I hear "drag item." Then after I move focus to the target position and press the combination again I hear "dragging to." But nothing moves. What am I missing? Thanks for the help.
