Subject: New "undocumented" feature in JAWS


I ran across a feature that is possibly new to JAWS 10. Check this out:
1. Press insert number 6 to open Configuration Manager. If asked for a new
configuration name, press enter to accept the suggested filename, which has
the same name of the executable with a .jcf extension.
2. Press alt s to open the set options menu, then press a to open the
advanced settings dialog box.
3. Tab around until you come across "MSAA Mode". By default, this is set to
automatic, but you can set it to either enhanced or classic.
4. Press enter to accept the ok button.
5. Save the configuration with control s.
6. Exit Configuration Manager.
I've tried this feature with several applications, and it does make a
difference, particularly when in list or tree views.
Enjoy!
