Hey All, hope yer' all doing wonderfully in this most lovely
holiday season!... :) <smile>
Well, I'm back from the great beyond, and my lil MacBook performed
splendidly!!! woohoo!!!...
I thank you all so very much for all your help getting set up with
it before I left! You all rock!... :)
I have firstly a wonderful surprise I just found regarding in-page
links with VO and then a question...
I was just viewing a development site for the Audio Quake project I'm
involved in, which had a page link which skipped navigation. I've
figured out that when one clicks on the link, the mouse cursor is
taken to the correct location, so if I check the box in the VO prefs
which says mouse cursor follows VO cursor, then I'll actually be taken
to the proper place in the page, and then can go on from there. I
haven't had luck routing the VO cursor to the mouse cursor, but will
keep trying that out. Oh, I also kept the cursor tracking on...
Just thought you all might like to know this... <smile> :)
so, secondly, during my trip back home to LA, I was using my MB on
the flight, and I discovered that the cute lil thing is so darn quiet
that I had trouble telling when it was off!... lol!... I usually
listen to the HD to see when it shuts off, but on a plane, that's not
always as easy. :) -especially with this one, being as silent as it
is, (the MacBook, not the plane lol!) which is awesome btw!!!
Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone else has any tips or tricks for
this?... Also, are there any ways to have it make a sound or such?...
Actually, being on the subject of sounds, is there a way to turn off
the Mac startup sound?... I actually prefer this but can't find a way
to do it. As well, if I plug headphones into the jack, the startup
sound still plays from the external sspeaks...
Anyway, happy to be back home and have regular access to ya'll and I
wish y'all an awesome holiday!!!...
Smiles,
Cara :)
