Yeah I know that from JAWS, what I was responding to is the fact
that what you are describing is not working. See my previous topic

Ah, almost forgot, the command stands for Jump to linked text. In
other words, it should move to, and read the text associated with
an element you're focused on. At least that's the way I understand
it. I'll be cruising the help files a bit more (as usual of late,
<smile>) in the next couple of days...
Will post more when I find it. Or of course, there are others here
whom, I'm sure, know quite a it about it. <smile>
Have an awesome evening!...

Even in Mail? Do you know what it is, if not then we both are

What is VO J supposed to do? I have tried this key combination
in every instance of mail and all I get is the bong sound each
time. I can interact, not interact, be in a message or not and
this key combination doesn't work anywhere. I think my computer
is broke.

I have to concur with cara here. It takes a bit of getting
used to and I do things a bit differently in that I tab instead
of vo j, but it is fast.

Andrew, I personally interact with the message table, use VO
right / left arrows to navigate to the subject or sender
column, and then simply use standard up / down arrows to
quickly scroll through the message list. To read a particular
note, I use VO j and then VO j back out of it to get back to
where I was in the message list... Does this make sense?...
I can go very quickly through lots of email this way. If I
want to delete a message, I use the delete key in the message
list and not in the message body itself. I've found that
using the del key in the message body causes the message list
to lose focus, so that I need to interact with it again,
whereas if I VO j out of the message after I've read it, I'm
still focused in the message list...
HTH

Hi,
Ok. What about the message list - this is more annoying than
the
reading issue, as it takes ages before the message subject is
read out
in the list.

you need to interact with the message to read it unless you
want to
either press enter, vo-j or tab to read it.

Hi,
I upgraded to Leopard yesterday, I like the new voice.
I have though an annoying feature in Mail, in that when you
are
arrowing
through the list of messages, it is reading various status
indicators,
and I just want the message subject (and possibly date) read
out. I
managed to get rid of some of the information by removing
some of the
columns from the view, but has anyone got any tips on
getting this
back
as it was before?
The other thing in Mail is that reading via the cursor is
irratic - it
works quite a bit of the time, but for no reason, sometimes
the system
reads out the complete message, and the arrow keys have no
effect.
Did clean reinstall - copied all user settings to external
storage
first.
Thanks.
Andrew.
