Hi, What I did was opened the VM Fusion keyboard preferences and just defined a different key to be the caps lock key and then configured JAWS to use the laptop layout. I used the key to the left of the number 1 as my capslock key. I also defined ctrl+\ to be the menu key as this maps to then the same as the context key. This works like a charm for me and I use JAWS under fusion daily with success and have VoiceOver working fine also then on the host.
If you make no other changes, the Windows key will map to the command key on your mac and the alt key to the options key. -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com <macvisionaries@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Ibraheem Fakir Sent: Wednesday, January 22, 2020 6:20 PM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Optimizing Keyboard shortcuts for Vmware and Jaws Hi group, I suspect this topic is discussed tirelessly here. I just got setup VMware Fusion and downloaded my copy of Jaws 2020. I’m now at a loss with configuring my keyboard so that it makes sense. I’m unsure what the Windows key is suppose to be or what the Jaws key is either. I’ve got my setup on a 2018 MacBook Air. Any help and suggestions to roadmap my keyboard is deeply appreciated.
