What the JAWS scripts do for the arrow keys being discussed is to
announce the new position. The keys work without the JAWS scripts, they
just don't give you any feedback.
Another thing about the shifted/control arrow keys that may be a little
different than you might expect: shift+arrow keys expand the selection,
Shift+Ctrl+arrow keys contract the selection. To move the right end of
the selection right use Shift+RightArrow, but to move it back to the
left use CTRL+Shift+LeftArrow. Shift+LeftArrow moves the left marker left.

Ok, sorry - maybe those keystrokes work outside of jaws scripting - but, I only started using them relatively recently...<smile>

Those jaws scripts specifically, besides other pieces of functionality, enable those keystrokes for shifting the selection end times bit-by-bit.

No I don't have the JAWS scripts installed. And if I did, how would shift left and right arrow do what I want? I asked about moving the left and right markers by increments. That means being able to move them both forward and badckward by tiny increments. Anyone who uses Goldwave for serious editing or Mp3 Direct Cut for serious editing should know what I am describing. Shift left arrow and shift right arrow couldn't do what is wanted because whatever they may do, they are only two commands. What is needed are four commands. Move the left marker back incrementally, move the left marker forward incrementally, move the right marker back incrementally and move the right arrow forward incrementally.

Gene, do you have the jaws scripts installed, and are you using windows/jaws?
Asking since think those shift and ctrl + left and right commands are included in the jaws scripts.

I doubt it. Are you talking about commands that change where you are listening in a file while it is playing? I know that the commands you gave can change where you are listening. I don't know what, if anything, they do when Audacity is stopped with a file opened. Whatever they may do when Audacity is stopped, they don't do what I am asking about. I am asking about commands that move the left marker or the cursor, the same thing, a tiny increment to the right and left and another set of commands that move the right marker incrementally to the right and left.

Hello, Gene,
To change the selected fragment:
a. to move the end position to the right: shift-arrow right.
b. to move the start position to the left: shift-arrow left.
c. to move the end position to the left: control-shift-arrow left.
d. to move the start position to the right: control-shift-arrow right.
Is this you wished to know?
Kind regards,
Loek.

Also, does audacity have a command to move a start or end marker vack or
forward by a fractional amount so you can not only hear where the markers
are located, but also move them an incremental amount?

Hello, David,
The new commands as shift-f5 up to shift-f8 are useful additional ones. Thanks.
However, the c-command for a play cut preview was useful too. This command hasnot any
effect in the new version of Audacity, although it has been defined as a
shortcut. How can I repair this?
Kind regards,
Loek.

range
In Audacity 2.1.1, there are four new playback commands to check that you've
selected the time range which you want:
1. To play a short period before selection start, press shift+F5.
2. To play a short period after selection start, press shift+F6.
3. To play a short period before selection end, press shift+F7.
4. To play a short period after selection end, press shift+F8.
Of these commands, shift+F7 to play a short period before selection end will
probably be the most useful. It allows you to listen to the end of the
selection without having to listen to the whole selected time range.
The periods before and after selection start/end share the same settings as
the play cut preview command (C), and can be set in the playback category of
Preferences.
These commands are similar to the corresponding commands available in
mp3directcut.
David.
