[nfbcs] jaws b.t.s.

You can keep from popping up tooltips by using the invisible cursor
instead of the JAWS cursor, which you do by pressing the JAWS cursor
key twice in quick succession before you route to PC. This will avoid
putting the mouse on your current line.

As tooltips are pop ups, I do not think that there is a solution to that

Hi all --
I have been using jaws since 3.0 and have always had a problem getting it to
spell the current line or alternatively let me route to pc cursor so I can
arrow around and read the line.
It is a big problem when I am on a screen that contains tooltips, as jaws
won't freeze the full text of the tooltip to give me a chance to spell it
out.
Other examples are in the UI of WMP where I try to read the title of the
current directory. I arrow up to the top element, then go up a level with
shift-tab.
jaws reads the name, as requested, but when I do a say line, it behaves like
i have moved to a completely different part of the screen.
 any ideas welcome.
I do get some success by virtualizing the screen, but even that is iffy.
tx in advance!
