Hi Will, There is a huge difference between having the VO keys locked, and using the QuickNav feature.
When VO keys are locked, you do not have access to the keyboard for normal use, and you will need to hold the shift key to interact and stop interacting. With QuickNav on, you can do it all with only the arrow keys by pressing different combinations of them, and you still have full access to your keyboard for texting and commands. Also, by still only using the QuickNav keys, you can switch the rotor status and jump between different items in the same category. The rotor status can be set to heading, links, frames etc. etc. and can be fully browsed by pressing VO-U. In QuickNav, you select rotor status with arrow up plus left or right arrow. After this, you jump with the up and down arrow. For example: Press left and up arrow at the same time until you hear "Heading", then down arrow until you hear the heading you want, right arrow to see what the body text sounds like, arrow down to next heading if you like etc. This was all about using it on the web, but if you are in a text document, changing the rotor switches you between words, letters and plain navigation. HOpe this helps, John André Den 28. aug. 2009 kl. 21.00 skrev william lomas: > > hi steve it is just like having control and option locked now though > as in leopard so doubt i'd need it > > On 28 Aug 2009, at 17:22, Steven M.
