interesting, I have never heard of command-enter. I wonder what it does? I think it opens a new window or thoght it did.
My fuzziness is often due to the fact that I am using windows. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thuy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "General discussions on all topics relating to the use of Mac OS X by theblind" <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, February 03, 2008 3:27 PM Subject: Re: downloading That's brilliant. Thanks to Justin and David for the suggestion of interacting with the heading. That works well, as long as you reroute the mouse to the voiceover cursor once you interacted with the heading. I also discovered another way through trial and error and that is to press command-enter. This seems to have the dual function of interacting with the heading and routing the mouse to the voiceover cursor. Keith give this a go on the blindcooltech and I think you should be able to control-click andbring up the contextual menu with the option to download etc. Hope this helps.
