Hi, When I say highlight, I mean command tab. So, if you move focus away from VMware fusion, you can then turn voiceover off, command tab to the full window of your VM, and everything should run fine. Alternatively, when running voiceover, and with your VM window in focus, hit VO shift space to click on the window. This also appears to relinquish control from voiceover to the virtual machine itself.
BTW, why was this message classified as spam? It is directly on the topic of accessibility.
