OK, Spotlight is appearing to be a bit confusing. They've obviously changed it a bit from how it worked in lion and earlier.

When I hit command+space, I'm typing in my search query, but here is the weird thing. It looks like along side the results is a quicklook pannel that shows what you're looking for. The issue is, if I type my query, then start doing vo+down arrow, I'm finding though I see the results, if I keep vo+down arrowing, I find the list of results is collapsing and not allowing me to continue going down the list. I don't know if it has to do with that stupid preview paine getting in my way, or what, but I'm finding this to be extremely irritating.

Is there not a way to get around this?  What am I missing.

Here's an example: I have a contact named Ben Bloomgren in my addressbook. If I hit command+space, then type bloomgren wait a second or so to let it populate, then I vo+down arrow I hear his contact entry in my contacts, but then I also have things like an IMessage I started with him, but then apparently there are other things down there too. I can't get to them though. As soon as I hit the result with our IMessage, the menu collapses and then all I see is search wikipedia for Bloomgren, and if I try vo+up arrowing, I get nowhere but back to the actual search text box, and if I vo+down arrow it just sits there like an idiot and dings at me.

I'm obviously doing something wrong. Do tell. What changed from Lion to Mountain Lion? This is ridiculous.

Chris.
