Quickly Navigating to Content Areas
VoiceOver treats the items in a window as a continuous loop, so if you are at the top of
a window and press Control-Option-Left Arrow, you go to the last item in the window.
You hear audible cues when you wrap to the next line, or wrap from top to bottom or
bottom to top.
If the VoiceOver cursor is in a webpage or a text document, the application may have a
lot of controls at the top of the window, such as buttons, links, tab markers, or
bookmarks. If you just want to get to the main body of the content quickly without
having to key through all these items, you can avoid them by moving backward one or
two places. For websites and other windows, this often places the VoiceOver cursor on
the HTML content area or the text area.
To move to the bottom quickly:
m Press Control-Option-Left Arrow.
You can also use a VoiceOver command to move to the last item on the page, which is
often an HTML content area or a text area.
To move to the last item on the page:
m Press Control-Option-Shift-End, or Fn-Control-Option-Right Arrow on a portable
computer.
