Here are some VO reading commands: VO + A - start continuous read from the current position of the VO cursor. VO + L - read current line. VO + S - read current sentence. VO + C - read current character. VO + B - read from beginning to current position of VO cursor. VO + W - Read visible text in VO cursor. Pressing a second time will spell the content, and pressing a third time will spell phonetically.
You can also interact with text, then use VO + right arrow to read by word. Use VO + Shift + right arrow to read by character. It may also be possible to read by character using only the arrow keys, and by word using Option + arrow keys. When using this method, you can also hold down the shift key to select text as you press the arrow keys. Note: methods described above may or may not work in all situations. You are advised to experiment and use your problem solving skills. - Brad - On Dec 16, 2020, at 16:32, Zoe Fiogkos <fiog...@rogers.com> wrote: Hi everyone I need some help please. I’ve asked on a few lists and haven’t gotten a streight answer. Please forgive my ignorance but I don’t know what else to do or where to ask. I understand that on the mac there are maybe different commands for different applications, having said that, i’m looking for basic reading and text selecting commands for such things as how to read and or select text on such applications as email, text edit, pages, and of course safari. Can anyone give me the basic commands for reading by line, word, caracter, paragraph, and say all. also a list of commands for all of the above for selecting text.
