The cursor position is not at random even though it might seem like it.
What happens is that any time you are moving back through text the cursor is
placed before the word or character that you have chosen to move by. Then
if you are navigating forward through you text, the cursor is then placed
after the item that is read, i.e. word or character. You will be able to
check this by navigating back and then as you switch to move forward, you
will hear the same item spoken again. This is because the cursor is at the
front of the word then when you change direction to move forward, vo will
read the last thing that was just read because the cursor is at the end of
the item going to other way. I hope this makes since, and can help you.
My best regards to you all,
Andrea M. Breier
