Hi Thomas
In my recent ramblings about moving the cursor I forgot to respond to
your issue with VoiceOver incessantly announcing that you can change
format. I am fairly certain that you can't stop this altogether, but
you can make it far less intrusive. From VoiceOver Utilities, go to
Verbosity and select the Hints Tab. There you can adjust how long
before VoiceOver announces the hint up to a maximum of 10 seconds. As
David mentioned, it is a tooltip type feature built in to this and many
other applications. It nearly drove me to distraction until I adjusted
the setting.

Hi!
I read the guide about Audacity that David Bailes has written, and tried to
follow along.
I experience something quite interesting when I move the cursor to a certain
spot in the track with shift+a.
I can do my edit, but when I want to go backwards (for example to the start of
the track) the focus of the cursor isn’t going back to the 0 time range even
when the home key is pressed. I guess there is a good explanation on this, but
I can’t figure it out myself.
Another thing is the selection edit spin boxes. On OS X these can only be read
by pressing voiceover-keys plus the shift key and the left/right arrow keys.
When I do this Voiceover repeats a hint telling me, that I can open the
contextmenu to change the format of the timesetting in the box.
I’m using the latest official version of Audacity on my Mac running OS X
10.11.2.
Best regards Thomas
