Hi All. I am hoping a bright VoiceOver expert will tell me how to add and remove what is on my MacOS Ventura quick nav rotor? For example, at present "form control" is on my quick nav rotor. I would like to remove it from the rotor. also for example, I would like to add "row" to my quick nav rotor to be able to navigate vertically inside a single column in a table. How do I add "row" to my quick nav rotor? I've search all over.

Smile. Thank you!

Bruce

Hi there,

As of this post, I am no longer rocking Ventura, but I am sure this behavior has not changed in a dog's age. Anyway the quick answer is that however you have your rotor setup in VO Utility,, is how it will work regardless of which Commander/Hotkey you use.

1. Open VO Utility (VO + F8). Note you may need to press 'FN' if using a Laptop.
2. VO to the dropdown menu labeled, 'Utility Categories Table'. Arrow down here until you land on 'Web'.
3. VO + Right arrow to 'Web Rotor'.
4. VO + Right arrow to 'Item Order Table'.
5. Arrow down here, pressing 'Space' (by it self) to check/uncheck whatever you want to show or hide in the Rotor.
6. Win! 😃

From this point moving forward, whatever is unchecked will not show up in the QuickNav rotor.

HTH. 😎
