That is all fine and good. But it is more than accessibility. Even the sited
community says that the office suite for the mac is clunky, and not very user
friendly. So trust me if it were an accessibility thing, the suite wouldn't
need an update.

way by the placement of tables as far as I know.
That's one of the things I like about spreadsheeting with a screen reader, we
don't have to bother with formatting unless we're going to be sharing with
sighted users.
Thanks isaac but the accessibilty index of an app is the primary information

You can go to System Preferences in the Apple menu, then choose users and

Just found this article on MacWorld. Speaks more towards low vision but
still nice to find accessibility mentioned in a mainstream publication.

It's just got an image tag in there that voiceover is telling you about. If it
is a picture of someone it will say one face or whatever. It seems cool to me,
cool but useless.

They are hints, like when VO says "to enter text in this edit field, type" or
other hints about what to do. Mavericks introduced a cool new feature that

I do sometimes, but then I occasionally get hints for other things as well. I
find that, oddly, if I hold down the command key for a couple seconds a hint is
usually spoken.
