Okay, that did it. Still, I thought there was a command to move from widget
to widget. Ah well, this beats going online to somewhere like
braille.wunderground.com, and now I'll look for more widgets. If anyone sees
a system monitor with cpu/ram/hard disk info, please let me know.

You need to press VO+F2 twice, just like you're going to bring up the window
chooser menu.

I launch dashboard and am read some of my widgets automatically, but I can't
move between them. I just get an image that is a link, an info button, and a
couple other ocntrols. I know I have more widgets than just one, but I seem
to get stuck in one (inaccessible) widget. Using the stop interacting
command does no good.

I find the weather one to be quite useful, actually.

I don't use it, because I just open spotlight or my applications folder and
open what I want. Are there dashboard widgets that people find helpful? I
suppose a weather and system monitor could be handy...

Hello,

 

I'm not sure if I was just incredibly ignorant of the fact, but dashboard is
totally accessible. By totally accessible, I mean you can pick the various
widgets you want to interact with using VO.

By pressing VO+F2 twice, just like you were going into window chooser, it
brings up a dashboard menu, allowing you to pick any widget currently
installed on your system.

I just thought folks would find that info useful, seeing as when I was
actually on a call with apple accessibility trying to find out that info, I
stumbled onto it myself.
