Hello Rowena,

You should be able to use a hotkey to apply a paragraph style in Pages with 
VoiceOver on. It always works for me.

As for setting a new style and a hotkey, here is what to do.



* Press VO-Space on the Paragraph styles button.
* If you wish to ad a new style, press VO-Space again when you hear "New" and 
type the name of the new style then press Return.
* Otherwise, navigate to the styles table.
* Interact, find the style you want and press Return.
* Otherwise, interact and find the style you wish to delete, rename, or for 
which you want to set a short cut.
* Interact once more and navigate right once.
* Bring the mouse.
* If you hear menu button, press VO-Space to open the menu.
* Otherwise, scoot the mouse away somewhere by swiping a finger across the 
trackpad and bring the mouse again.
* This time you should hear menu button, so press VO-Space.
* Select the appropriate action from the menu and press Return.
* If you are renaming the style, just type the new name.
* If you are deleting the style it will be deleted.
* If you're adding a short cut, choose the one you want from the submenu and 
press Return.

Cheers,

Anne
