Hi all.
So I was in Voiceover Utility, and thought I'd adjust the pitch range, which I assume controls things like pitch change for capital letters and such. If I get on to the value, 35%,and interact, it says "in stepper", but then I have no idea how to change it. Vo-up/down doesn't work, VO-up just takes me to another value heading. VO-left/right just takes me through the text of the pitch range area.
Googling just turns up stuff about track pad gestures, I don't have a track pad. How in the world do you change this?

Hi for steppers, for example…
Hi for steppers, for example in VO Utility primary voice 0 Sentence Pause stepper, you want to interact with it, and then do vo-up/down to adjust it. Voiceover won't necessarily announce the value at first, but if you hear the same sound as when you do vo-space when doing vo-up/down on that stepper it works and you can just move around to know the actual value the control has.
Hope this helps.
PS: I asume you have a mac mini to not have a trackpad???
Thanks!
Ah, where I was confused is that I was expecting the changed value to be read. It wasn't actually navigating to something else when I did VO-up, it was saying "Hello, this is Reed" with the new value, so you could hear the effect.
Yep, a Mac Mini. I'm debating whether or not to get a trackpad, mostly because I'm debating whether I want to upgrade to another Mini, or pay more for a MacBook to get portability. I was using a Windows laptop, but it was plugged in most of the time. I don't travel a ton, but I do sometimes, so having something portable would be nice. Of course, a Mini would be pretty portable too, but it would always need an outlet.
Obviously if I got a MacBook, an external trackpad would be redundant. Hence the debating. Fun stuff! Now I just need to find where you adjust what VO does for capital letters. I think it's set to change pitch right now, and sometimes that works, and sometimes it seems like it doesn't.
