I don't have any idea what you're refering to here. Could you
explain more fully? You can go in and out of Dashboard with
F12...Control-Option-Command-= does absolutely nothing here.
*confused* To open a widget the VO-F2 combination works just fine
for selecting them, or opening the Widgets bar to turn some on or off.

Having done some research, I found command-option-control+= toggles
the widget bar on and off in dashboard and command+r runs a
selected widget's image. Also interestingly, java-ui widgets
according to one writer appear inaccessible that was Thomas Carson
over on accessibility-dev. He didn't make mention of using the
java access bridge package though so unless that was made
specifically for jfw he might have some luck trying it.

That's true, they do keep running until you close them. You can
see them in the activity monitor.

I think it is better to close them anyway. After all, from what
someone told me in the store, the dashboard widgets keep on
running otherwise at startup. It's best to run them as and when
you need them.
