Hi grant, I was just getting prepared to answer Caitlin’s question when I noticed something in the remapping window. I noticed that in addition to Insert being a choice in the “to” combo box, there is also a choice for “caps lock”. Could it be that we can remap the accent key (or some other key)

Caitlin, Here are the steps for the Fusion-only way, based on instructions I’ve written previously to the list. It’s been a while since I’ve used this method, but I think these instructions still apply. Press CMD+COMMA to open preferences from within VMWare, and select the “keyboard and mouse”

Hi Bill, This problem is the same as Jaws and other screen readers that use caps lock as the modifier key. You need to reassign caps lock key in Windows in fusion for NvDA to use it. Recently there has been quite a detailed set of instructions posted to the group on how to do this. You may n

Hi. Running Windows 7 in Fusion with a Windows keyboard, I cannot seem to use the caps lock key as an NVDA modifier. I have the setting enabled. Does NVDA not see the caps lock key in a Fusion Window? Thanks. Bill -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Group
