MessageOkay. For what it's worth, here are my thoughts.
Every time FS comes out with a new version, there are always tons of people who
complain about the lack of features, and how they can't believe that FS is
charging for the upgrade. So now, FS has added the ability to move into and out
of forms mode automatically, and further, has given the user the ability to
choose whether or not they even want to use the feature, and they're still
getting blasted. We can't have it both ways. People want features, so they're
getting features, but the features aren't good enough. They release a version
that offers bug fixes and they're wrong yet again because they didn't include
new features. No matter what they do it's making someone upset. And, for those
that haven't even tried the beta yet, I would suggest that you withhold
judgment until you have tried it. You never know, you might just find that you
like it. Also, keep in mind that this is in beta. Beta, as a rule, aren't
perfect. By installing a beta, you're agreeing to accept the fact that there
may still be problems, which need to be reported to FS. So, what do people
really want? Just something to think about.

Nicely said Chris,
Once FS has the fundamentals working well then ad the bells and whistles, as
a long time user of the Windows operating system, MS-word, Outlook, Excel and
PowerPoint I could provide them with a lengthy list of suggestions. I do
understand that from a marketing standpoint it is easier to charge for wazoo,
gee-whiz enhancements then it is to charge for fixing known bugs.

Hi
I have been watching this thread and up-front I confess I have never used
Jaws 10 or Auto form mode but as a long time Jaws user and judging by the
comments made, I feel I must question the development policy of FS. They seem
to be directing resources into adding bells and whistles to something which was
working adequately in the first place, when they could have been utilizing them
to address issues where Jaws struggles or doesn't work at all.

Thanks,

Is Orhan correct that this auto forms mode feature can be turned off? There
seems to be some disagreement about this...
Well, if it can, please disregard my former posts, oops, too late? oh
well, never mind.... ha ha
