Hi David, and thanks for the information.  I know that with a lot of
programs it's a matter of trial and error, but what programs have you had
use for the touch cursor?

Hi. The touch cursor is something that I often rely on and which I have had
good success in using although not with the particular program which you
mentioned. Users who only use standard software such as Edge, Word and
Outlook likely won't need to rely on the touch cursor that much, if at all.
However, some programs might not make good use of the PC cursor and some
don't offer good keyboard support, at all. Also, sometimes the JAWS cursor
doesn't work as expected in later versions of Windows. In cases such as
these the touch cursor can make an otherwise inaccessible screen or even an
inaccessible app somewhat if not totally accessible.

Subject: [VICUG-L] The JAWS Touch Cursor

Hi everyone, I've been experimenting with the TOuch Cursor in JAWS with
sentinel, which is a radio scanner programming software.  For the most part
it is accessible with a few exceptions.  I can tab through the things that I
normally would miss with just the PC cursor, but can't activate anything.
What have others luck been with the Touch Cursor?
