[gui-talk] A Strange JAWS Setting

[Rasmussen, Lloyd]

It is acting as if the insert key is not being used by JAWS.  F7 in Internet Explorer turns a caret on and off.  I think it's useful to have it on.

Subject: [gui-talk] A Strange JAWS Setting

Hello, 

 

For some reason, suddenly whenever I'm on a website and try to go into links mode using insert/F7, JAWS says "carret browsing on" and something about using carret to select text.  Since I have no idea what this means I always choose no.  I'm assuming I have something selected or not selected that I don't know about.  I looked through the settings and could not locate what I need to change.  

 

Is this something new with JAWS 14 or what do I need to do to correct this.
I'd like to be able to get my links lists back. 

 

Thank you.

 

And, BTW, when would I want to use carret browsing anyway?

 

Kris
