Excellent!

Thank you for that clarification.  That's precisely what I needed.

Have an excellent evening.

Chris.

    Guys,

    I have a question.  Undoubtedly Apple has changed some things without my 
knowing.  In Yosemite, I'm having a lot of trouble selecting multiple items in 
my finder in a noncontiguous fassion.

    It used to be I could interact with the file browser, focus myself on the 
first item, then disable cursor tracking with vo+shift+F3.  Then, I could 
VO+down arrow until I got to the next item I wanted to select.  Then, to toggle 
its selection, I could hit VO+Command+Space bar.  Now, when I do this, it 
brings up the actions list for the currently focused item.  Do a keyboard help 
on vo+command+Space, and you'll see exactly what I'm talking about.

    I tried simply passing that keyboard shortcut through to the OS with 
VO+Tab, then doing the VO+Command+space bar, but that isn't working.  I can 
confirm with VO+F6 to read the currently selected items that it's not working.

    So, how in Yosemite, and later, does one now go about doing this?

    Chris.
