Hi, Hmmm. That's odd. VO should read everything within a Keynote slide, unless of course it is an unlabelled image, or a scanned image thing. There are usually different aspects on the slide itself, including headers, footers, body etc. VO should read the contents of a Text box without even interacting with it. Images are usually just announced as Image. Transitions are announced. This is my experience anyway. So, if you're not getting any of that feedback, there's something funny with the Keynote slide stack or something funny with your version of Keynote.
Are you in Slide Show mode, or just view/edit mode? Later...

I've tried adding a text box from the tool bar, but that didn't help either. I then went to the formatter group, but all I could do there was move things around and messait up for the people who actually need to see what's on the screen.
