Hi, everyone,
I'm a bit confused here. When I go into the menu bar, for example,
I simply use the arrow keys without vo. I can move across the menu
bar, or down any category. Then, I can arrow right into any submenu
and then arrow down to its contents.
I'm not sure where the vo keys come into this. Marcy

Hi everyone,
Got the new kitty installed on Friday, late in the afternoon. All
seemed to go well, but I've encountered a strange problem when I
access menus using VO.
I opted for doing the upgrade, rather than the clean install,
figuring everything should function normally. Prior to upgrading,
I did do a permissions repair, and my most up-to-date version of
Leopard was 10.5.8.
When I'm in the Apple menu, for example, I can use VO-Up/Down to
arrow through the menu and all is well. When I reach "Dock", which
has a sub-menu, VO says, "Dock Dock, sub-menu, 6 items".
Continuing to use VO-Up/Down simply gets me "Dock Dock, sub-menu, 6
items". It appears that I'm stuck on that menu item. Now, if I
simply use the arrow keys, without the VO keys, I can actually
navigate the sub-menu of the Dock menu item under the Apple menu.
If I Left-arrow, I hear nothing but if I VO-arrow up or down, it
appears that I'm back at the top of the menu. If I bring up the
Apple menu, using VO, then simply use the arrow keys, all things
seem to work fine.
This behavior seems to be present in all menus - application,
contextual, etc, where there are menu items which have sub-menus.
It appears that I even seem to have this problem with the popup
menus in the VO utility, and I'm sure it happens in other places.
Did a clean install of SL on a small drive I have, and all things
seem to function normally - this only seems to happen on my
MacBook, and also on my friend's Mac Mini - we both use our
computers completely differently but we must have something in
common which is causing the issues I've described.
Anyone have any thoughts, ideas, suggestions, etc? Any help will
be greatly appreciated!
If necessary, please feel free to contact me, off-list.
Take care,
Ron J.
