[macvoiceover] Re: Save dialogs when using text edit

I don't use list mode for this reason. I've always had this issue but I don't use vo to navigate, I use tab and arrows. Column mode works fine for me.

Actually, this may apply to other dialogs also but I noticed a change specifically in the save dialog when using text edit. First I noticed this on Carla's machine and then discovered the same thing on mine and I'm wondering if there's been a change I missed or if both Carla and I have something set strangely on our computers. 

Here's what happened before and what happens now:

What happened before:
In the save dialog with the disclosure checkbox checked, one could interact with the file table, select the appropriate folder (after of course setting the pop-up button to the desired area) and, if using list mode, use right arrow to open the outline and select the folder. One could then save to that directory. It was also possible to do the same task by navigating in the browser table in column mode. 

What is happening now:
With the disclosure checkbox checked and a selection made in the pop- up menu, using list mode (haven't tried this differently yet in column mode), I can get on the proper row of the table with the vo cursor for selecting a folder but then have to do cmd-down-arrow to open it. Then if I want a subfolder, I again can't just line up on it and stop interacting; instead I have to do cmd-down-arrow to actually open that folder and then save. Before I realized what was happening, files were being saved in a folder one level above the folder where I actually wanted them.
Is this happening to others? Is this a known change? If so, it seems more complicated to me. It also seems strange if this happened during an upgrade as Carla, not having access to high speed internet very often, doesn't have her machine updated completely and I do; I'm not sure how far she is actually updated at this point. Btw I don't think this is at all related to problems surrounding the safari 4 beta install as I'm pretty sure Carla is still on safari 3. I appologize if this has already been discussed but this list has gotten busy enough that I don't always read posts that I don't think are discussing a problem I'm having and I'm not sure what subject such a discussion would be under in the archives.
I know this is probably just some kind of change I missed but I'd appreciate it if somebody could enlighten me on this matter. 

Tia.
