Where a keystroke used the number pad then you must learn the new ones assuming your laptop isn't one of the large screen ones with a number pad built in. As for the rest, they're the same.

Amro,

The thought did strike me alright earlier that the capslock key as a Jaws key seems easier to access!

Do you know if you can retain any of the desktop keystrokes or must one learn all those new ones?

Thanks

Tony

Tony, best to refer to Keystrokes/Laptop Jaws Keystrokes in the Jaws help files. You'll find a table of all the commands you need there plus other useful info. I personally prefer using the Caps Lock key as the Jaws key that I use Laptop Keyboard Layout even when using a desktop.

Cheers,
Amro

The JAWS key in laptop layout is caps locked. You can change the layout through the basic settings dialogue box, accessed from the options menu in JAWS itself.

Subject: [access-uk] Desktop to Laptop Keyboard


Hi All,

I have never really worked a laptop keyboard layout and am wondering for any tips you might have to give?

I am using Jaws and the laptop is Vostro.

It is a standard laptop keyboard I reckon!

I previously only used the querty keyboard even connected to a laptop but as I now need to move my laptop about a bit I thought that I should now get useed to the laptop keyboard layout!

I note that there isn't an insert/Jaws key as I knew it on the desktop keyboard?

What for example is the Jaws key on a laptop!

Do I need to change the keyboard layout for Jaws and if so how do I do this?

Getting used to the laptop keys will save me a lot of unnecessary carrying around of an additional keyboard in the future!!

Any assist with these queries gratefully appreciated.

Tony
