Hello all, I haven't used the command vo+shift+c to do this task. What I do, and it works in most of the cases: I switch from dom-mode (used by default) to group-mode when I want to select text on a webpage. To do this switch quickly, I have assigned a keystroke in the keyboard-commander. When I am in group-mode, It seems to be much more easy to select text on a webpage with shift+down-arrow (also or only if quicknav is on).
Hope this helps, best regards, William Windels Op 23-mrt-2011, om 14:18 heeft Anne Robertson het volgende geschreven: > Hello Carolyn, > > If you have VoiceOver set to announce when a modifier key is pressed, the VO > command to copy last spoken phrase to the clipboard doesn't work. > > Cheers, > > Anne > > > On 23 Mar 2011, at 14:11, carolyn Haas wrote: > >> Hello Simon: >> I've heard about this but never got it to work for me.
