Correct. That is not the same as reading word by word.

Either way, VoiceOver only reads a single item that is in the VO cursor.
This is not the same as Read By Word.

The VO-W key sequence

2020-12-11 Thread Jonathan Cohn 
The voiceOver W command did change from Mojave to Catalina along with the rotor 
commands.
In every version of VoiceOver Macintosh before Catalina, VO-W is used to say 
word. 
In current MacOS versions it is "Read Visible text". Still not quite sure how 
this is different from VO-A "Read the contents of the VoiceOver cursor". 
Oh, I bet for those 9 to 5 articles where the links were reading incorrect 
information, from the aria-label, that VO-W would read the correct thing. 
Anybody notice differences with Catalina or11.X between VO-A and VO-W?
 
Best wishes,

Jonathan Cohn
