Hello

I didn't know you can hit option-tab to go to next control.  Thanks for the
info.

Hi,

Hot spots. They enable you to keep track of a certain area in a window,
quickly jump to it, or simply read the status area it is monitoring within a
certain window.

Example: You are downloading something in Safari, but you want to do
something else. But it's a huge download. You go to the percentage with the
VoiceOver cursor, hit VO-Shift-1 to save it as hot spot number one, and go
do whatever else you might want to do on your Mac. If you suddenly wonder
how far along the download is, you can hit Vo-COmmand-1 to monitor Hot spot
one. Now, this is a pretty difficult command for some people, so you might
want to use the right command key instead of the left, coupled with
control-option on the left side of the keyboard until you get beyond four or
so.

As for jumping to edit boxes, you can either use the rotor on the trackpad
or via VO-U and Quick Nav. You can also make Safari jump to all controls
except links buy hitting option-tab. I don't think AppleScript is required
for this at all, though it can probably be done for those who really care.

Regards,
Nic

        Hello all, 

        Anyone know if there will be a feature or if there is one now to
define user windows in order to keep track of info in a particular region?
Also is it possible to write a script allowing a user to hit e for the first
edit box on a webpage or x for check box, and so on?  I don't know enough
about apple scripting to answer this question, so any info will be greatly
appreciated.

        Thanks 
        Edward
