Hello all,
Recently I have noticed that I am unable to get the selection command for
working with files that are non-contiguous to work. I am not sure if I am doing
something wrong or if this has been introduced as a disfunction in voiceover
within in the latest update. Here are the steps I am using:
1. Locate the folder where the files to be selected reside.
2. Navigate to the first file to be selected and press vo-command enter.
3. Generally voiceover indicates that the file is now unselected so I repeat
the keystroke to add it to a selection.
5. Move to the next file to be selected and repeat the keystroke.
6. Sometimes I then hear a tone from voiceover which I know indicates the
process will no longer work.
7. Other times, voice over indicates the highlighted file is selected and I may
proceed.
Hope these steps can help figure out what is doing on. Thanks for any
suggestions. I am also going to look in the voiceover help to see if there is a
step I am missing.
As a final thought, a friend suggested I lock the voiceover keys to see if that
would help and after trying that, there was no difference in the behavior.
