Re: Change to quick key behaviour in Safari in Mavericks
Hi, before, and still now, VO command F brought you to pop up boxes and buttons rather quickly.

Re: Change to quick key behaviour in Safari in Mavericks
I would encourage everyone who was using these keyboard apps to update them or completely uninstall them. Don’t just let them linger unattended if you upgraded from Mountain Lion. Several very odd keyboard anomalies have been solved since I updated them. One very strange thing was that when I opened an app from Finder, then closed the app, I could no longer open another app from finder without moving focus away from Finder and returning. I also think VO-J was affected in certain circumstances. There were other keyboard weirdnesses that I can’t adequately document at this point. Now that I have updated both and checked to make sure everything is set correctly, things have smoothed out considerably for me with Mavericks and the keyboard.

Re: Change to quick key behaviour in Safari in Mavericks
Ed - Although I can sympathize with your frustration with having combo boxes/popup buttons mixed in the b quick key, it is also a reason to celebrate since it was not possible that I could find to quickly navigate to a popup button/combo box before. This was equally as frustrating to me. I haven’t experimented with this yet but any way to quickly navigate to them is better than no way at all. Maybe I was just missing something before since I am a very new user. I would like a way to move to these elements separately.

Change to quick key behaviour in Safari in Mavericks
Hi, I use quick keys to navigate web elements in Safari. In Mountain Lion, when I pressed b to move between buttons, it would cycle through what I traditionally think of as buttons which might be search, go, submit etc. However, using b now seems also to bring in pop up buttons (what Windows calls combo boxes). Has anyone else noticed this? While I suppose they are buttons according to Safari, I find it a bit annoying.
