[macvoiceover] Re: VO Key

Hi
Though the Voiceover manual outlines using the Voiceover keys to navigate menus, documents, and other edit fields, this is not necessary. You can navigate most places with the standard movement keys you're already accustomed to, tab and the arrow keys work very similar in OS X to how they work in Windows. You use the Voiceover cursor to get to parts of programs that you can't get to with standard navigation keys, and to read areas such as web content that do not have native keyboard access. Just as in Windows, tabbing to every control is not supported in all or even most programs.

Good evening,
I have been reading the Voiceover Leopard getting started guide. Am I right in my understanding that a lot of the time I have to use the VO key while navigating menus and other documents? This seems a little strange to me coming from JAWS / Orca. 

Thanks,
Everett

The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at or repair.
