Hi Donna, That's mighty odd. I just tested here and VO f1 lets me into each document I have open in numbers and text edit, as well as all my safari tabs and so on.
I think we rely on command tab too much because we came from windows where accessing the task bar wasn't the thing to do. I try to force most of my clients to develop an afinity for the dock and application chooser because they offer a level of access that command tabbing doesn't really. Many of my clients alt tab or command tab without really understanding why they do that or how to pick things up when they get lost. Where-as the menu structure of the application switcher is a very friendly way to see all that's going on on your mac. Plus as well, if you have 10 apps open, command tabbing really isn't any more key presses than going to the dock, and even I start out command tabbing around only to forget which program I wanted and why, laughs, Erik Burggraaf Follow my series of articles about setting up a small business through the ontario disability support program at http://www.erik-burggraaf.com/blog Ebony Consulting toll-free: 1-888-255-5194 or on the web at http://www.erik-burggraaf.com On 2013-04-27, at 3:42 PM, Donna Goodin <doniado...@me.com> wrote: > Interesting.
