Thanks, Tim. I'll probably change it this weekend, when I have more time to
mess with it if something goes wrong.

Hi all,
I've been having trouble changing the font size in Text Edit documents. I
select the text, click on the font size, select the size I want from the list.
Then I hear VO say Confirm, but there doesn't seem to be anything to click on.
I hear the VO thunk when I press Enter, Spacebar, or

Jonathan,
When I Cmd+Shift+D to send an email message, it will come up if there is an
error. I can’t figure out how to go back to the original email message to find
that word in the sentence. Is there any keystroke that would read the current
line where the misspelled word is located?

Hi!
After i upgraded to Catalina my fan on my Macbook air has become very active
even when its not needed.
SO i checked with the activity control and VoiceoVer takes 56% of processor
usage.
There’s also a service called something like accessibilityview that takes up
55% of processor usage.

Thanks for answering this.
Also thanks for your kindness to contact apple accessibility.
I resolved it by using mail on my Iphone as it was an icloud acount.
I do hope they fix this issue though.

Another possibility for people who don't have the search is to try forcing the

In the customize toolbar dialog, move to the default set of toolbar items image

I highly doubt that re-installing the OS would do anything. If it has been less
than a couple of hours since your install I would logout and let your computer
sit with login prompt for a bit. MacOS does have some utility work to do after
the upgrade. Otherwise, see if you can give a more specifi
Another way that I just found is to make selected text smaller or larger with
command-- or command-+ respectively.
I believe Tim was referring to the show font dialog with command-t.
So, there you have it. You can forget about the mouse all together.

Hi Jonathan,
I am well, thanks. Yes, they are RTF files. But Barry's solutions worked
perfectly.
Hope you are well, too.

Hi,
Usually, after all that drinking, I didn't remember those days ;).
Simon, it was ruddy 4 AM over here. At least where I am in Minneapolis this

actually wasn't properly asleep at 4 this morning. Silly me.
