Don't do it.
Move your control if you like, but leave the vo cursor where it is.
We'll figure it out. Honestly. There's nothing more anoying than to
have your cursor jump all over the place with no concept of where it
went and why.
I understand what you're trying to do, but it will make things easier
for vo users if you don't fiddle with the vo cursor location. Let us
move it on our own, it keeps things simple. Plus, sometimes it's
useful to us to know the application did something with the control
we were looking at. If you moved the vo cursor with the object, we'd
never know it changed, and that could lead to complications in either
tech support, or when trying to explain something to sighted folks,
since they will see it move, and we won't know it moved. It's very
important to allow the vo user (well, any screen reader user) to
control the screen reader. Do what you like with your app, but
please don't move the vo cursor around on us, it only creates confusion.

Dear AXProgrammers,
do you know if there's a way how to update the current VO cursor
position?
The problem I'm occuring is that I may need to move the control
that is under the VO cursor and I'd like to move the VO cursor with
it too.
Is there a way how do I do this?
Thanks,
Tomas
