I think you have the ability to scroll back in chat history if you
don't interact with that second frame.

yeah, it's weird that you have to interact with two things. I don't
even know why that first one is there, it seems pretty pointless. but
so it goes.

ok, so I was close. I knew there were two things or so to interact

the chat window is a little weird. when youget a new message, if
you VO left arrow and hear main frame, then you interact with
that, and once you do you'll hear chat frame. you interact with
that too, so there's two interactions in a row. then if you VO
shift right arrow, it'll take you to the end of the chat window
where you'll see the most recent message. then to reply youhave to
stop interacting with both areas and VO right arrow over to the
edit field to type your message. it's much easier just to voice
chat with skype! lol. the built in mic that comes with the mac is
amazing, it doesn't even sound like an internal mic.

Hi all,
I'm sure this has been asked many times before, so I beg your
indulgence for raising the issue of using skype with Voiceover
once again.
Just to explain where I'm coming from on this. I am a very
experienced jaws user who has just started playing seriously with
my mac. I'm trying to get the hang of using skype and, if I'm
honest, making a pig's ear of it.
Are there any easy ways to navigate around that screen? In
particular, I find the chat window very cumbersome to interact
with. For example, are there any quick ways to find out what the
latest incoming message is?
Thanks much,
Donal
