Hi Jonathan,

OK, did you mistakenly say lower right corner instead of lower left corner?

For lower right would place you in the next window when going forward.

Bruce,


Thanks for the class notes from Chip, everybody does have access to these via the GWMicro web site, though I do appreciate the research efforts.


I was attempting to re-do some examples from jaws training to show to my co-workers. One of the the labs moves the jaws cursor to the bottom of the current window and then speaks the information.


I was able to do this fairly easily, but then realized that with the text object I should be able to get data from any line on the screen without moving either the mouse or we-cursor.


I got the outline windows rectangle converted that to a screen rectangle and then asked for the line of text starting at the bottom right of the window.


I was finding that the function was recovering the line just below and to the left of the current window. I had to remember learn that I needed a copy of the text object.


I was not able to determine a good method to move just inside of the outlines edge and just changed my starting point by 20 pixels vertically. I was hoping that the text.priorline would work but had no success there.




Best wishes,


Jonathan
