Hi Richard, I am surprise they said they couldn't duplicate it since there are a number of articles in the mainstream media that this an issue for regular sighted users as well and that Apple was working on a fix. I don't know how exactly sighted people select text and then select copy and paste, but apparently this is an issue they are well aware of and I am also not sure why it doesn't come up when you select "Paste" from the edit menu for us Voiceover users. s From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Richard Turner Sent: Wednesday, September 21, 2022 1:07 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Pasting permission and Apple Accessibility's great communication!
Of late, Apple Accessibility has been great about responding to emails and often with useful responses beyond we forwarded it to the right team. I wrote them about the permission to paste issue and they wrote back asking for more specifics since they couldn’t duplicate it. I had discovered, I think thanks partly to a question Sieghard asked about duplicating it, that if you define a gesture for paste for VoiceOver and use it, the permission dialog pops up every time. If you use the rotor and go to edit, paste and double tap, no permission dialog. When you use the gesture that causes the dialog to pop up, you can just dismiss the dialog to clear it and the paste happens just fine. After I replied with my explanation, within 12 hours they wrote back that they now can duplicate the issue and forwarded that to the team to put in the fix. For a while there, their responses were seldom useful, but they seem to have ramped up their quality of service. One of the best things about having an Apple device is access to help all the time unlike some devices...
