That is easy for an able-bodied person to do but not for me because I cannot use my hands.

I have not tried this but the Help file for WSR has:
 

Select an item to drag with the mousegrid

number—or numbers—of the square where the item appears; 3, 7, 9 (followed by) mark

 

Select an area where you want to drag the item with the mousegrid

number—or numbers—of the square where you want to drag; 4, 5, 6 (followed by) click

 
Try the above to see if these help?

Sorry, I messed that last post up
 
Normally, when I do a screen capture of something on my PC, it is easy enough just to take the whole screen.

I have the option of choosing something within that screen the size of an icon to take a screen capture of it if I want.

What you have to do is drag the cursor around the part of the screen or icon sized object you want and then take the screen capture.

That is easy for an able-bodied person to do but not for me because I cannot use my hands.

Is there a way to do this using speech recognition and so not needing your hands to capture the part of the screen you want?

Cheers
