Well, there're two ways. For one thing, Google for 'em,
or for two, when in dashboard, do your vo+F2 twice, and I think one of the most bottom options says something like download more widgets, or browse for widgets, or something to that effect.

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.

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 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...

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. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
