It worked out great! Yes, all I had to do was VO-Right to the next
collapsed element, the one after the table with the slides in it that I
could arrow through, interact with that element, and for each slide, the
text was right there. What threw me, what made me think it wasn't
working, is I found out that the first two slides were banners with
nothing on them but the title and a big picture. When I got to slide #3,
interacting with that center element showed me the text in a nice
editable window.
Now for my next trick: attaching media and having it play when the slide
is display to which said media is attached!

Hi again,
So in keynote, and forgive me if I am starting with stuff you already know, you
get three sometimes four different areas of the screen you can interact with -
depending on your set up:
1. Slide navigator - this is a list of all the slides in the presentation and
if you interact with this list you will only get the titles of the slides. If
you rest your cursor on one of these and then stop interacting with the slide
navigator you then ..
2. Can navigate to the slide itself and here you can interact with the
different elements on the slide and read the text sometimes I need to interact
with the element - say title and then interact with the edit box and it should
work - move around the box with vo arrows.
3. You might also have the formatter area which changes depending on what you
are doing but it is where you can add transitions fonts etc or move things
around.
4. The notes page where you can add presenter notes.
Hope this helps but get back to me if it still doesn’t work

I sure thought so, too, but I get the title, and that's all. 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.

Hi,
If you interact with the individual elements of the slide it should read
everything to you.

It has come upon me that I need to know a lot more about this software than I
do. For example, I seem to have become the de facto presenter for a group to
which I belong whereat I must show a PowerePoint presentation. I've discovered
that Keynote doesn't read the embedded text, but the Windows
equivalents--PowerPoint and OpeneOffice--do. Is there a way to do this in
Keynote for MacOS?
