You can't use the insert key as a screen reader modifier, only control/option and caps lock. You can assign tons of commands to the num pad keys, but even with that option open to me on my wired keyboard here, I never really use it. I simply find it easier to have my commands on the main keyboard, where my hands are anyway. This will be something each person feels differently about, though, sort of like asking which is the best synthesizer out there. > On Jun 18, 2016, at 17:52, Arnold Schmidt <[email protected]> wrote: > > Not yet knowing a lot about using VoiceOver on a mac, do I need a keyboard > with a numb pad very often?
