"should" is the optimal word... *smile*

What you describe is what I do but there are intermittent issues. Sometimes
it works and sometimes it doesn't. It looks like the virtual tracker is
enabled by default for all browsers. Does NVDA have similar functionality?
I haven't found anything about it in documentation.

Are there certain types of elements that just won't allow a screen reader to
virtually and visually track at the same time?

I'm wondering if Fusion might be a good way to go. Fusion wouldn't allow
the virtual cursor to not track the visuals, right?

Thanks for your thoughts,
David
