True that is why I hesitate I do use the quick nav on occasions. -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Matthew Campbell Sent: Wednesday, July 11, 2012 19:28 To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Full Key Board or not?
Hi. I'd learn to use quicknav. You can activate this by pressing both the left and right arrow keys at the same time. If you've used an iPhone with a wireless keyboard before, the commands will be very similar. There is a decent amount about quicknav in the VO help activated with VO question mark. If you were to go the route of purchasing a wired keyboard with numpad, that'd be one more thing to carry around with you if you're Mac is a laptop. JMO, Matthew Campbell.
