Good evening I have a client who needs the screen brightness lowered. Is there a function key command that will do this? Also, can anyone make recommendations for what to turn of so a low vision user can see the information on the screen better? For some reason when my client was looking at the screen she did not see text. I forget what it was but it sounded like either a background or wall paper. any tips for best set up for a low vision user would be helpful. I'll be using voiceover while teaching the client but she doesn't need to see the voiceover curser. Thanks.

If you're going to stay in the Adium window throughout the conversation, you can turn cursor tracking off with VO shift F3. You can then leave your VO cursor in the window and your mouse cursor in the edit box, then just follow along with VO. However, remember to turn cursor tracking back on again when you leave the Adium window.
