*!Mastering Layered Keystrokes in JAWS!**

JAWS includes a powerful feature called Layered Keystrokes, which allows users to access advanced commands by pressing keys in sequence instead of all at once. This makes commands easier to remember and execute, especially for users who prefer fewer simultaneous key presses.

*How Layered Keystrokes Work*

* Enter the Command Layer: Press JAWS Key + Spacebar.
* Complete the Command: Press the next key (or keys) to perform the desired action.
* JAWS Key:

  * Insert for the Desktop Keyboard Layout.
  * Caps Lock for the Laptop Keyboard Layout.

*Useful Layered Commands*

* Open Vispero Companion: Press JAWS Key + Spacebar, then F1.
* Access the Table Layer: Press JAWS Key + Spacebar, then T.
* View All Layered Commands: Press JAWS Key + Spacebar, then Question Mark.

*Why Use Layered Keystrokes?*

Layered keystrokes provide quick access to many advanced JAWS features without requiring complex key combinations. Once you become familiar with them, navigating and using JAWS becomes faster, easier, and more efficient.

This simple feature can significantly improve your productivity and help you make the most of JAWS.
