Tomorrow: Take a closer look at Vista's Ease of Access Center.Adobe Flash Player is one of the most popular software to create, view, and edit multimedia-rich video files. Activate Windows' Mouse Keys feature to convert your number pad into a mouse-pointer controller. Press the left Alt, left Shift, and Num Lock keys again to turn the feature off. Now move the pointer by pressing the numbers along the outside of your number keypad, and press the 5 key to click. Press the left Shift key, the left Alt key, and the Num Lock key to open the Mouse Keys dialog box. Your keyboard does offer an alternative way to slide your mouse pointer across the screen. There's no substitute for a mouse's ability to move the pointer around the screen in any direction and as fast as your hand can drag it. Or use the Move command first to place one side where you want it and then the Size command to resize it. If you want to move the top down and the bottom up, or the right side in and the left side out, you have press Enter and repeat the shortcut. Once again, press Enter when you have the desired size to return the focus to your application. The Size option uses the same icon, but the arrow keys move the top, bottom, left, or right side of the window. Press the arrow keys to reposition the window, and press Enter when it's in place to return to the normal view.
The Move command places a four-arrow icon on the screen. To set it to the "normal" view, press Alt-Spacebar-R.) Access controls for moving and resizing windows by pressing Alt-Spacebar.
(Note that the Move and Size options are grayed out when the window is maximized. Unfortunately, some very useful keyboard shortcuts were omitted from the initial list, including those that let you move and resize windows by pressing Alt-Spacebar-M and Alt-Spacebar-S, respectively. Since I can't remember all the shortcuts I might need, I listed them in a text file I can open in Notepad using just two easy-to-remember keyboard combinations. I wanted to be able to use my PC without requiring a mouse or any input device other than the keyboard. There were some important shortcuts left off the list I described a couple of months ago.
