If you want to enforce this a bit, there is an option in the Dock
section of Tinkertool to:

When switching to application hide all others unchecked

This defaults to unchecked, and I am not sure if this is always
available, or only when "restricted finder" used by parental controls
is in effect. I guess I would need a sighted person to verify that .




Best wishes,

Hello Donna,

I regularly have to bring the mouse to the VoiceOver cursor and
haven’t encountered the problems Eric described. However, I am in the
habit of hiding any other open applications using the command
Cmd-Option-h. This keeps the screen clear for the current application.

Cheers,

Anne

Hi Erik,

Thanks so much for this!  I'm glad I hadn't imagined that such a
keyboard command existed. :)

Haven't been able to try it out yet, I'll let you know how it goes.
Cheers,
Donna

Sorry, I forgot to add, when pressing control option command f5,
the feedback will be the contents of the voiceover cursor,
indicating that the mouse has been routed to the voiceover cursor;
However, clicking may yeald unexpected results because mac os lets
you stack windows on top of eachother, but voiceover doesn't
indicate that such a window is present.  So, you may think you're
clicking on some mouse only button on a webpage in a safari window
when in fact you're clicking on a file icon in finder or
notification text in a hidden dialog box.  Thus, routing the mouse
and clicking is an inexact process.  It's also worth noting that
some clickable options won't work with the trackpad as long as
voiceover is turned on.

Best,

Hi all,

I know that may be a dumb question, but I'm thinking there is one
and I can't remember what it is.  I'm trying to force the mouse
to route to the voiceover cursor, similar to the Route Jaws to PC
in JAWS.
Thanks,
Donna
