Well, nobody answered the original question, yes there are other ways to get to the dock, but there is such a thing as finger memory. To correct this problem usually you only need to type control-F1. If this happens to you quite a bit, you can also disable the control-F1 functionality. Best

To open the VO Utility on a Touch Bar Mac, simply press vo-fn-8. No need to mess with the Bar at all; in this case, as with most VO commands, adding the function key to a regular number will work as though you'd pressed the f key of the same number. Speak window title, for instance, is vo-fn-2.

Hello Donna, Does sound a bit convoluted. You can always create a keyboard commander to do this either option o, option p or option 8 would make sense to me. So, bring up VO Utility (vo-H (twice) and then type util ) Move to commanders command-8 Select the keyboard tab Press the Add button.
