How, on both counts? arrowing, even in text areas, never has seemed very consistent; I find myself guessing until I find what I want. Maybe quick nav complicates things, I don't know. I didn't know you could lock the vo keys, that sounds useful. I think I need to find a complete keyboard reference for vo, as huge as that may be. Does such a thing exist?
