You're right, too bad I'm not a jaws user, all due to misguided advice
to get Vocalize to run dos, way way back in the last century.
I have Jaws12, and resolve to learn to run it, well, but probably won't
happen, though.
I just found the search function in NVDA, the last thing it didn't
have that made it slightly inferior to Wineyes, and the 2013 NVDA now
parks itself back aligned with the link to a webPage when you exit the
webPage; yet another improvement to discourage ever running anything but
slick little NVDA.
The only occasion I ever bring up Wineyes now is to use it's numPad
functions on a very oddly written logOn box.
For finding screen coordinates, I may download the 40 minute demo of
jaws again, if the OCR can provide coordinates of all the unknown
graphics; to spot up with your knockOffHotSpotter.
thanks,
Indi
