I generally use a setRestriction when working with the JAWS cursor so that I
know exactly how much of the screen JAWS will consider part of the text.
Generally don’t forget that anytime you are using the JAWS cursor there might
be issues if one part of your application is obscured by another application. I
have had great results recently by using Jaws functions to click on a MSAA
object with a specific name. You would have to use one of the inspection tools
to see if your graphic has an associated MSAA object or element
Best wishes,
Jonathan
