46 Chapter 5 Using VoiceOver With Mac OS X
When you interact with the scroll area that contains the search results, the VoiceOver
cursor starts on the first column, which contains the disclosure triangles for each group.
The way you interact with disclosure triangles in the Spotlight window is different than
how you interact with disclosure triangles in some other windows.
To open or close disclosure triangles in the Spotlight window:
m Press Control-Option-Space bar.
As you navigate the search results, press Control-Option-Down Arrow to move down a
column. Spotlight displays the first five results in each group. If there are more than five
results, you can click the link at the bottom of the group that tells you how many more
items it found.
Changing the Sort Criteria
The body of the Spotlight window contains a sidebar: a scroll area within a scroll area,
which you use to sort results. You can sort groups by kind, date, or people, or you can
show a flat list. Within groups, you can sort by name, date, kind, or people. You can also
choose different ways to sort by date and location.
To change the sorting criteria:
1 Press Control-Option-Right Arrow until you hear “scroll area.” This is the area that
contains the search results.
2 Press Control-Option-Shift-Down Arrow to interact with the contents.
3 Press Control-Option-Right Arrow to move across the first row in the table until you
hear “scroll area” again. This is the sorting sidebar. Press Control-Option-Shift-Down
Arrow to interact with it.
4 Press Control-Option-Down Arrow until you hear the criteria you want to use. For
example, you can sort groups by kind, date, people, or flat list.
5 Press Control-Option-Command-F5 to move the mouse pointer to the VoiceOver cursor.
6 Press Control-Option-Shift-Space bar to click the mouse. The search results on the left
immediately change to reflect your choice.
Chapter 5 Exercises

menu, and copying and pasting a folder in different Finder views.
Exercise 5.1: Using the Dock
