Hi,
I've been rather behind on email, but wanted to answer this question since it
is something that it took me a while to find.
According to the people at accessibility@xxxxxxxxx, doing vo plus a will read
an entire page when you have not interacted with the page, but instead when you
are positioned directly over the html content area.
Be aware, however, that this will allow you to read a page only from start to
finish. In other, if you go do something else on the page, then this method
will only start from the beginning.
If you know this is what you want to do, you might turn off voiceover moves to
newly loaded page, to remind your self that this is what you want do way, you
are positioned right on the html content, or if not you can move to it. , you
could always turn it back on.
Hope this helps

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!
Tasha
