I use mission control but it appears to be associated with a 4 finger swipe up.
There are three areas of Mission Control. The first one adds a virtual desktop,
the second area has a list of all desktops either they are full screen
applications or just a second screen of applications. For a blind user the
primary reason you might want multiple screens is for performance. If you have
an applications that is constantly updating the screen (perhaps a movie), then
placing that application on its own desktop and moving away from it, the
computer will know you can't see the updates so it won't work on constantly
updating the screen with the changes.
The third section of voiceover is a list of every open window So a little bit
like the VoiceOver window list but for all applications.
Best wishes,
Jonathan
