Last updated: February 27 2006



The information in this article applies to:

  • ZoomText 9.0
  • ZoomText 8.1 and 8.0
  • ZoomText 7.1 and 7.0


PROBLEM

In Macromedia Dreamweaver MX and 2004, ZoomText may not track the text cursor while you are typing text, allowing the cursor to drift out of the magnified view.

SOLUTION

To resolve this problem, disable Dreamweaver's “Offscreen Rendering”, as follows:

  1. In the Dreamweaver menubar, select Edit > Preferences…
  2. In the Category list, select Accessibility.
  3. In the list of Accessibility options, uncheck "Offscreen Rendering (Disable when using Screen Readers)."
  4. Click the OK button.
