There are some limitations of the Java™ document viewer.
The Java document viewer
has the following known limitations:
- The Intel Graphic Controller shortcut key conflicts
with viewer shortcut
- When a client that is by using the Java viewer
toolkit, such as the applet viewer, and the Intel Graphic Controller
application are active, there is a conflict with the Ctrl+Alt+I shortcut
key. This shortcut is used in the viewer to invert a document.
The
Graphic Controller has hot keys enabled by default. When the hot keys
feature is disabled in the Intel Graphic Controller, the viewer
keys work fine.
- JAWS screen reader Version 8.0 interferes with Java viewer shortcuts that begin with the Alt
key
- The JAWS screen reader interferes with the shortcuts in the Java viewer that begin with the
Alt key. In the Java viewer,
Alt+Enter launches annotation properties, Alt+F4 closes any window,
Alt+Left Arrow or Right Arrow moves the annotations. Trying to move
annotations by using Alt+Up Arrow or Down Arrow can cause the annotations
to jump or not move.
To move the annotations, close the JAWS screen
reader and move the annotations by using the keyboard keys. If you
have JAWS open, move the annotations by using the mouse.
- Java viewer and applet viewer
Print window does not have focus by default
- By default, when the Print window opens in the viewer, it does
not have focus. Therefore, you cannot navigate the window by using
the keyboard (Tab to navigate or Alt + mnemonic character to select
a particular field). To work around this problem, click the window
to give it focus. Press Alt+Tab to switch to a different window.
