Hello John Sorry this is a little dated; but yes, we have successfully managed to drag and drop using the VO technique under Lion. You need to make sure that both winnows are visible; i.e., have 2 finder windows open before it will work. Lynne On 6 Jan 2012, at 04:01, John Gunn wrote: You

I just wonder if somebody sighted could test if using the expose feature would consolidate the use of drag and drop with voiceover. I often get the message that drag and drop will not work because the window is not visible. As I understand it the point of expose is to arrange all windows so that

Hello John OK, well at least as you say she should have the Command+Option+V alternative, that never fails here. Using the mouse, of course, this kind of function works seamlessly everywhere. But it's very odd that your friend should be seeing this issue. Best Lynne On 10 Jan 2012, at

Hello David Yes, I think you're right that VoiceOver calls it the Accent key. I've just tried this a couple of times and I cannot replicate the problem. Each time I did it it worked perfectly well. So who knows; maybe it's something local in the configuration of the specific system; but I've
