You know, I totally forgot about that checkbox. He's right, unchecking that box gives you the nasty delay. I still want that script for battery level, though, lol.

I have heard of sometimes check boxes can become unchecked so I was wondering if those of you having this delay has the [use allow VO to be controlled with apple scripts ] has been unchecked somehow! I have no delay here using Mountain Lion!

However, the question of more responsiveness after one press is definitely a factor. I only notice the delay the first time I press the key combo in a long time. Subsequent presses are much more responsive. >> >> I will report this to Apple. >> >> Thanks, >> Teresa >> >> >> On the other hand, there are different fingers. >> >> On Dec 11, 2012, at 7:12 AM, Alex Hall <[email protected]> wrote: >> >>> I would not hesitate to ask Apple for any fix you can think of, big or small. They can prioritize things, but they will never know to fix a problem if they don't know it exists. As to clicks, you can mute vo through the help menus (vo-h) or by setting up a keyboard or trackpad commander to do it. >>> On Dec 11, 2012, at 7:23 AM, Jürgen Fleger <[email protected]> wrote: >>> >>>> Interesting.

For example to read an article on Wikipedia is no fun. It takes ages. For me there's to much delay after full stops and commas and when a link is announced. Also the info how many objects a header on a web page has takes to much time for me. At least on my german OS VO announces the objects in a header followed by a very long pause. Yes, I know of the Reader. But it's also annoying to hear again and again "clickable" at the end of a line. >>>> >>>> But honestly: I don't dare to ask Apple for such small things as long as VoiceOver contains the real big bugs as pdf or tables in text documents or the VoiceOver calendar issue in iOS. >>>> >>>> All the best >>>> Jürgen >>>> Am 11.12.2012 um 08:20 schrieb Harry Hogue <[email protected]>: >>>> >>>>> Alex and Teresa, >>>>> >>>>> I have found this same issue, and have this theory as well. I do not often use the keyboard commander VoiceOVer scripts for this reason, such as opt+B for battery, opt+M for Mail, etc. With each of these commands there is a lengthy delay that doesn't make the command practical to use much. Once it is loaded into memory, it then works fine. As for the voice, I use Fred on a regular basis, and still find this delay even though the voice used for the script is the same one that VoiceOver uses at other times. >>>>> >>>>> I hope this helps. >>>>> >>>>> Harry >>>>> >>>>> On dic 10, 2012, at 10:56 p.m., Alex Hall <[email protected]> wrote: >>>>> >>>>>> Me too.
