Hi David, can you just start selecting text like you can in windows, or
do you have to use vo enter to turn on text selection? The reason why
I ask is because, let's say you want to start selecting text, and you
know roughly where you want to stop, in windows, you can use shift down
arrow, and even over shoot yourself, and then up arrow to unselect the
text you don't want, then copy and paste. In the case where you've
selected too many lines, how do you delete the line from the selected
text you don't want, and hope this makes sense.

Then, try control-option-a to see if the text is read. There is
another
option if you don't want the whole page and that is while on the page
in
safari, control-option-arrow till you find where you want to start,
control-option-enter to turn on vo selection, control-option-arrows
till you
get to the end of what you want to select, control-option-enter to turn
off
vo selection, command-c, go to text edit, command-v to paste it in and
turn
it to plain text.

neither of those seem to work, unfortunately.

how about control+option modifier plus L for the voice over and then
command+down arrow, if that does not work, look for the select all and
copy
with command+f2

Subject: [macvoiceover] say all equivalent in safari
Okay, so I've just switched to the mac, and of course, I have no idea
what
i'm doing. i'm using safari to access a webpage with a very long
story on
it
that I would like to read straight through. I have my web navigation
set
to
DOM. However, when I use my vo and left and right arrow keys, I can
only
get
it to read paragraph by paragraph, and when I interact with the
text, I
can
only interact with a paragraph at a time. Once, I got it to treat the
whole
story as a group, but I have no idea how this happened, and I wasn't
able
to
interact with this group. If there is no way to read continuously
from a
webpage, is there a way to copy and paste the whole contents of the
page
into text edit so that I can read the story that way?
thanks!
