The trackpad basically does what I can do on the keyboard. I never have it on either. The reason I asked is that I tried your suggestion for Blackboard, but VO would not talk. Hahaha.

Hi Ezzie,
No, the check box for the track pad commander is unchecked. I never have that on apparently. :)
I don't really know what that's for.

Hi Nicole,

Do you have the Trackpad Commander enabled when you do that?

Hello,
I have been having the same issue.
I just move my mouse with my finger until I hear voice over read "Create thread" then I just click on it. That has been the only way I've found to get it to work. If there are any better ways to work around this, I'd love to know what they are. :)

Hello list,

I am taking some courses online that use Blackboard. For these courses, I am required to post answers to the Discussion Board. When I click on the question and try to click the "Create Thread" link, Voiceover says "Menu Bar". I see the Create Thread" link via the Web Item Rooter and the Item Chooser menu, but get the "menu bar" when I point my cursor to it. I've tried interracting with the "menu bar", but it appears as text. I cannot click on it. What do you all do in these cases, beside asking for sighted assstiance?
