Yes, lock app-track to jaws cursor, then try using app-track cursor and
see if the behavior persists.  If yes, use the jaws cursor for review
and navigation then switch back to the app-track cursor for editing.
What happens with the invisible cursor?

Subject: Cursor issues in VS.Net 2008 code editor with jaws

Dunno when/why this has started occuring, but, just noticed in last day
or so that on this windows7 32 bit machine, in the code editor, in
VS.Net 2008, using jaws 12.0.1158, and with MSENV scripts installed, if
I try navigating around in the code editor, the cursor seems to be
jumping 2 characters with each keypress of either left/right, whereas,
if I try making use of NVDA therein, it does actually navigate one
character at a time.

Aside from this, jaws also doesn't seem to want to read all the
characters/words if I in fact navigate using ?Ctrl + left/right instead.

I did notice that my screen resolution had moved over to something like
1600x1280 at some stage, and also tried moving it back to the more
common 1280x1024 now, but don't think that's really relevant, and, BTW,
if I switch over to jaws cursor, it does seem to be moving over one
character at a time, so it seems to be specific to the primary,
keyboard/PC cursorf, and the intellisense is still being read well
enough FWIW.

Any thoughts on how to sort out a rather irritating thing?

Stay well
