It appears that SHIFT + CONTEXT MENU opens a context menu that contains a superset of the functionality available from a plain CONTEXT MENU. That is to say, SHIFT + CONTEXT MENU gives you all the functionality of a plain CONTEXT MENU, plus some additional stuff.
When I do a SHIFT + F10, I get the same menu contents as if I do a SHIFT + CONTEXT MENU. As a result, if you're using SHIFT + F10, you're not missing anything. You're getting everything that is on a plain CONTEXT MENU, plus you're also getting the additional functionality that is on a SHIFT + CONTEXT MENU. I hope that helps. -Paul > -----Original Message----- > From: Jfw [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mike B. via > Jfw > Sent: Saturday, August 22, 2015 6:34 PM > To: The Jaws for Windows support list. > Cc: Mike B. > Subject: Re: Shift + F10, alternative > > Hi Adrian & Pablo, > > The, Shift + Applications key, is called the extended context menu & is > supposed to offer a few more options.
