And that very well may be true, but I have absolutely no way of knowing since I haven't worked with anyone using either a touchscreen laptop, all-in-one, or 2-in-1 who's also using JAWS. I do know that there are a number of gestures that are documented in the JAWS 16 and 17 keystrokes documents that clearly employ the touch screen, but it may be that JAWS captures anything that happens on the touch screen and if it's not one of the dedicated JAWS gestures simply doesn't pass it along to Windows. I do know that I've watched things get chaotic (and sometimes triggered by me) when I try to point something out on the screen (which I'm used to touching on a regular screen, which does nothing) and accidentally triggering something in the quick launch bar or, if I twitch slightly, starting a program from the desktop. That would be particularly "not good" were it to be happening unintentionally for a JAWS user. Brian
