 Hi,

 That is correct.  The Finder cannot be closed, nor does it need to be.
 Things like Spotlight are usually services, not apps, thus when you
 close
 it, the Finder is still considered the running application, but focus
 is
 not within the correct window.  The cmd-tab I mentioned will bring
 focus
 back to the correct Finder window and you should be fine to proceed.

 If you still have questions, feel free to ask away.

Ramy,
   I do not use Spotlight but tried it just now. I hit escape to 
dismiss any search results and escape one more time to dismiss Spotlight.

Re: Keyboards commands are going crazy

2017-06-06 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

That is correct.  The Finder cannot be closed, nor does it need to be.  Things 
like Spotlight are usually services, not apps, thus when you close it, the 
Finder is still considered the running application, but focus is not within the 
correct window.  The cmd-tab I mentioned will bring focus back to the correct 
Finder window and you should be fine to proceed.

If you still have questions, feel free to ask away.

Re: Keyboards commands are going crazy

2017-06-05 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

It's not really a bug.  It's due to layering.  When you open Spotlight, an 
invisible layer brings the Spotlight service into focus, therefore, VO works 
within the Spotlight layer.  When you close Spotlight, that layer is still 
there.  The sighted user will not notice it as it is invisible, and when they 
click an item visible to them on the screen, focus is automatically transferred 
to the other app and the selected item.  With VO, you can either press cmd-tab 
to make VO focus go back to the actual Finder, or click the mouse or Trackpad 
to get focus out of the Spotlight layer.

Hope that makes sense.

Later...
