Hi,
The default on a laptop keyboard layout is that the jaws Key only requires a
single press. For the caps lock function you need to hit the key twice quickly
for the native function.

Alice,
Although I don't use the laptop keyboard layout myself, I understand that you
need to press the caps lock key twice quickly for it to function as a JAWS key.
I'm sure another lister will chime in with something more specific based on
actual experience.

Hi, Negeslev, I just tried all those things you listed with the caps
lock key on the laptop, and they are not assigned the functions you describe.
Is that because the caps lock key is the JAWS key on the laptop?

It's very simple. Place kaps lock instead of insert and it will work for
most commands. Be aware that the numbers from the numpad are used by jaws as
follows:
1 - end
2 - down arrow
3 - pg down
4 left arrow
6 right arrow
7 home
8 up arrow
9 - pg up
You have all this on your laptop keyboard, so you use kaps lock instead
of insert, and just add those to it. There is a whole section with keyboard
commands in the jaws help.

On a related note to the skim reading mode, how does one start JAWS
reading the whole document/page without having to hit down arrow for every
line? I know it is insert (or JAWS key) 2 on the num pad, but what is it on the
laptop layout?
Thanks.
