Hi Rose, To select non-contiguous items:
1. Navigate to the first item in your list. 2. Press VO-shift-f3 to turn off Cursor Tracking. 3. Navigate to the next item then press VO-cmd-space. 4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until everything you wish to select has been selected. 5. Don't forget to turn Cursor Tracking back on with VO-shift-f3 as leaving it off gets rather frustrating until you figure out that you've forgot. Yes I speak from experience. To Deselect all: • I don't know a specific keystroke but you could do either of the following: 1. close the specific window then re-open. or 2. Make sure that Cursor Tracking is on then simply navigate once up or down in the list and then only the item you are on will be selected. Next, press VO-cmd-space to deselect the item you are on and then nothing will be selected within that area anymore. HTH. Later...
