Hi sara,
My experience is that the routing keys work quite well if you are in an
input area but not anywhere else. if I understand this correctly, it is
also true in the rare instance in windows that there is a static box. as
for panning, this is also a factor of the edittable area. if you are in a
content composition area, it works for me with my alva and brailliants, but
not in a read only area like the web or in the finder etc. I will do more
work on both of these and report though.

Good question. I am still trying to get my pm display to pan left and right
and to scroll. VO doesn't scroll it so that I see all the text in a line; I
just see the first couple words... sometimes only one word if it's a long
word since my display is only 20 cells. I have the VO manual but still
haven't figured out what I am doing wrong. lol
I also don't think VO is seeing each button as a separate button. My display
has two rows of cursor-routing buttons and VO doesn't seem to number them 1
to 20 etc.
