Thanks for this, I assumed there would be alternate keys but hadn’t heard anything.

The dash and equals are on the standard numbers row.

If you go to that key, then move your finger up to the touch bar, you should be on the volume control.

But yeah it’s a great new feature I wasn’t aware of.

As for the volume control, find the Plus key. It's right above that.

Those who have the new MBP have probably found this and others may already have read about it. The ability to turn on VoiceOver or one of the other accessibility features isn’t as difficult as we first thought due to no function keys being avaible. I found today that if you triple press the button in the top right hand corner I believe it’s the one for the finger print sensor or was formily the eject button on the older machines, It gives a menu with spoken prompts for all the accessibility features And then allows you to tab through the list and use the space bar to enable the feature you require All with a voiceover like prompt speaking each of the options tabbed to. Ok so you could just add in the command key and the top right key and get VO straight away but I just thought this feature was a very cool inclusion making life a bit easier Now If I could just find the short cut keys for turning up volume then it might be easier again, Tapping the touch bar and then sliding to the volume up touch pad area isn’t as easy as it appears Have a good day everyone and hope this is a usefull tip. -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
