Hi Ann.
Thank you so much. Command up and down arrow works. I'm wandering why
they also have made VO commands for that.
When using the danish keyboard layout, it's impossible to use VO \.
The \ sign is made by pressing option shift 7. If I go into the VO
help, I can use the command anyway, but it's annoying the command
doesn't work.
What does the VO virtical line command do?
Best regards

For some reason, the VO fn shift left and right arrow commands

because I use a danish keyboard layout? The VO and shift keys are
at the same place as the english keyboard.. When I press VO shift
fn left or right arrow, the VO cursor just moves as it does if I
just press VO and the arrow keys. If I turn on the VO keyboard help
and press the command, VO says: "Moving Voiceover cursor to first
item in group."
For some weird reason, control left and right arrows moves the
cursor to the beginning and the end of the line.
A.R. It sounds to me as though you're not interacting with the text.
Control-Left arrow does move the text pointer to the beginning of
the line, and Control-Right arrow moves it to the end, just as
Option-Left arrow moves one word to the left and Option-Right arrow
moves one word to the right. These commands without the VO-keys are
standard Mac commands.
You can also use Command-Up arrow to go to the beginning of a
document and Command-Down arrow to go to the end. Using the Shift
key with these commands highlights the relevant portion of text.
By the way, does the Danish layout give you trouble with any other
commands? The French layout makes it impossible to use the Sort
command (VO-Vertical Line), as the Vertical line character is Option-
l.
Cheers,
Anne
