Hello Phil, Using VoiceOver, a simulated mouse click is VO-Shift-Space bar. You can do an actual mouse click by pressing down on the trackpad. You have to have Trackpad Commander turned off to be able to click with the trackpad.
In VoiceOver Utility, under Verbosity, I always check the "Speak text under mouse after delay" check box. This lets me know should I accidentally move the mouse when touching the trackpad. So, an Option-Click can be done by routing the mouse to where the Option-Click should be done, then holding down the Option key and pressing the trackpad. I regularly get a contextual menu by holding down the Control key and clicking with the trackpad as I find it more reliable than VO-Shift-m.
