Sorry to hear you are having trouble opening the shortcut menu for Dock items using a braille display. I am able to open the shortcut menu using a keyboard, and the VO + Shift + M command, but I am kicked back to the desktop when I attempt to select an item from the shortcut menu.
One workaround is to route the mouse pointer to the shortcut menu using VO + CMD + F5, and then using CTRL + a 1-finger click on the trackpad (or just a 2-finger click on the trackpad). This is a bug in macOS 11.1. Apple has been made aware of this issue, and hopefully it will be remedied soon. In the meantime, I wouldn’t worry about removing items from the Dock. Besides, you need to access the shortcut menu for a Dock item in order to remove the item from the Dock, so for now you are stuck. - Brad - On Dec 28, 2020, at 20:27, Jason Judy <jace...@gmail.com> wrote: Greetings everybody, A braille user here, I'm having trouble opening the contextual menu on the dock on my 2015 Macbook Pro. Basically, when I press VO + shift key + m key, it doesn't open the contextual menu on the dock. The focus would simply jump to the desktop, leaving the dock, after pressing the contextual menu shortcut. I also tried to open the contextual menu by holding down the Control key and clicking the trackpad, but still, the focus would jump to the desktop as well. Do any of you have any suggestion to get the contextual menu to open? Another question, is there a keyboard shortcut that will remove an icon from the dock if I can't open the contextual menu to do so?
