ester, you are right, the max update is 5 sec. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Esther" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "General discussions on all topics relating to the use of Mac OS X by theblind" <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, March 07, 2008 12:11 PM Subject: Re: Strange Quandary
Hi Cara, I'm guessing that the Activity Monitor program didn't get a response on status within the update time because of VoiceOver i/o. It's like when you use the "Start speaking" from the Services Menu on a long piece of selected text. You're not going to get any other status information until your machine finishes "speaking its piece". There's some feature like "Update Frequency" that you can set under the View menu and maybe with larger intervals between report updates you're more likely to get the status report from screenreaderd? Just guessing here.
