Hmm... Sighted assistance didn't do it? Whew! Yeah, it's a matter of dragging the horizontal splitter down to the bottom of the window. This technique worked for others, as I recall. Maybe someone might have another suggestion. ----- Original Message ----- From: Holly Anderson To: General discussions on all topics relating to the use of Mac OS X by theblind Sent: Sunday, June 11, 2006 5:34 PM Subject: Re: turning off message content area in mail
Hi Jerry. I tried this several times and it still didn't work. I even got some sighted assistence, and he couldn't figure out how to do it too. I interacted with the scroll area, and then I routed mouse pointer to voice over cursor, and then I slid my finger down the track pad while holding down the button. I also tried going across.
