The OCR is not preserved once you turn off the Jaws cursor.

So far, when you perform OCR on a screen, a window, or the current control, your choices are to read the text with the Jaws cursor, and do a mouse click with the mouse simulation keystrokes. The text is still linked dynamically with the onscreen image, so if you found "Next, back, cancel" for example, you just do a numpad slash on one of those to click it.

But, this is just the first implementation of the feature. If you could trap the ocr text, tie it into the graphics labeller or other features, or hotspot clicker somehow, you could build up a level of access to things that way.

I hope they continue to develop the feature further, tie it into scripting etc.

Sorry. No coffee. Understand OCR thing. Trouble is, could you preserve the OCR or would you have to do it new every time you open Kontakt?
