@Marco, *, Actually this can be done from the Tools -> Options -> Accessibility: Miscellaneous options where the check-box for 'Use text selection cursor in read only text documents' Still, would be a useful enhancement to enable this by default when an AT is detected in use, and perhaps change the panel option to selectively disable the feature. Is there a reason this isn't enabled by default for all users, even those not using an AT? I imagine it has something to do with these keys being used for scrolling or the like, but thought it was worth asking the question. :) (In reply to James Teh from comment #2) > Is there a reason this isn't enabled by default for all users, even those > not using an AT?
