and to add to this excellent list, if you are focused on an item which provides for it, the equivelant of right click is vo-shift-m.

Control option m should get you there and then you can arrow around.You'll find the Apple menu which is for things like system preferences, shut down, sleep, etc. The next one will usually be the name of the program you are in such as finder or text edit. That menu usually has stuff specific to that program. Then after that there's usually the standard file edit view etc. give or take a few options. smile If you press control option m a second time you will get some more menus for time machine, bluetooth, the clock, and a few other things.
Hope this helps, Sara ----- Original Message ----- From: Jeff Kisecker To: macvoiceover@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, September 13, 2009 10:23 AM Subject: [macvoiceover] VO and PDF Hi:I had the opportunity to spend about an hour in the local Mac store playing with VO yesterday. Thanks to the input on this list and to reading the VO starters guide, I was pretty successful. I do have a couple of questions though.
Is there a way to skip directly to text on a web page?I tried to open a PDF document on the web, is there an accessible Mac PDF reader? Do I need to save the document then open it in something else? Is there a way to right click and use another menu system?
I had a hard time figuring out Numbers, is there a good tutorial for this application?
Lastly, is there a way to access a file menu and such as in most windows applications?
Thanks much!
