Hi Bill, Try changing the following in, about:config.
This is the default setting: layers.offmainthreadcomposition.enabled set Boolean true This is what I changed it to: layers.offmainthreadcomposition.enabled set Boolean false With this line of text highlighted, press the application key to open the context menu & press the letter, T, to toggle it to true or false. From: Harri Tuominen Hello! Perhaps you should change this value from "true" to "false" in about config page: layers.offmainthreadcomposition.enabled I use Firefox 34.0 with JAWS 15.0.12085 and the JAWS cursor works quite well.

I tried doing what someone advised in the following manner: Going to the about:config in Firefox, Change the "gfx.direct2d.disabled" with a default value of False. to true Change the "layers.acceleration.disabled" with a default value of False. to true. However this still only gives me a couple of graphic symbols when trying to read with the JAWS cursor. Is there something else which needs to be changed in the newest versions of Firefox to allow reading with the JAWS cursor, or is it now an impossibility? Thank you.
