Hi Teresa,

I'd be happy I'm making a mistake, but I'm afraid VoiceOver does not support 
text selection functions like those you are looking for, such as from cursor to 
end of text or from cursor to beginning.
Actually I cannot understand why VO does not support them, but that is.
I don't understand many other things too, involving VoiceOver way of working, 
such as, for example, no word wrap while reading in Braille  or a gradual, but 
continouus slow down panright advance while reading in Braille, specially long 
sentences.
Sometimes I ask myself if people helping Apple to develop VO Braille interface 
is really using it in its daily work.

  

Mario.

Hi, Richard,

Thanks much. I'm familiar with those commands, but they only select character, 
word, and line, depending on the rotor setting. I'd like to select larger 
chunks of text, including all, from cursor to end, and from cursor to beginning.

Thanks,
Teresa
