Hi all, I was reading through some of Apple's developer documentation and I stumbled across a way to assign hotkeys to buttons in dialogs. For instance, if a dialog comes up asking you to "save", "don't save", or "cancel", you might hit cmd-d to activate "don't save". This is similar to Windows' scheme of letting you press alt with a key to activate a button in most dialogs. Ever since I started using the mac, the absence of these access keys has bugged me, as they are such time-savers, particularly in dialogs with a lot of buttons to tab or vo-arrow through. However, having discovered that it is possible, at least programmatically, to implement access keys, I have to wonder if these keys are available, but simply not announced by Voiceover? Is there a setting that will let vo speak the keys, much like NVDA or Jaws on Windows will say something like "save button, alt plus s"? Or is the case simply that, while access keys are possible, no one uses them? Thanks.
