what about if you use just a regular mouse will the same thing apply?
I don't own a macbook or powerbook

Hi hank,
VisioVoice can be obtained at:
http://www.assistiveware.com
or:
http://www.avisiovoice.com
if you ownn an apple notebook, your trackpad iss located near yourr wrist
when you are typing on its builtin keyboard. Just below and to the
scenter of it.
If you go to system prefs, in keyboard/mouse, there is a track pad tab
where you can change settings.

Subject: VisioVoice and the mouse/trackpad:
Hi all,
I'bve begun to work with VisioVoice while not using VO to attempt to
determine what we can do with the Mouse/track pad. If anyone can work
on this, it would help to get more than one person's observations. If
you've sight, all the better for some of this.
I've discovered that I can use the track pad to some extent but have
not figured out the optimal settings for both the talking interface and
the track pad to make this most effective. I did manage though to read
an email message with the track pad. I first opened mail, arrowed to
the bottom <bong> yes, even with VO turned off, you hear that. I
pressed enter and then gently poked around till I found the text of the
message and as I moved slowly up and down, the message was read line by
line because each line had an image and a caption for the image or so
it seemed to me.
I will also attempt with mouse keys so I can see if drag and drop will
provide me with the audio cues I need. David, did you get a chance to
test this? I have only now gotten the time to do it.
Thanks!
P.s. If you want something fun, try visio voice with the regular mac
voices.
