VoiceOver menu

The VoiceOver menu shows you all of the commands that can be used with the item that is currently highlighted on the screen. This is useful when you're not sure which keys to press to make something happen.

  • To open the VoiceOver menu, press F7 (that is, Control Option F7).
  • To highlight an option in the menu and hear its key combination, use the up and down arrows (Control Option UpArrow or DownArrow).
  • To select a highlighted item and perform the command, press Spacebar (that is, Control Option Spacebar).
  • To close the menu without choosing anything, press Escape (you can skip Control Option).
