Working with Numbers on Mac air Ventura

By Catherine, 2 July, 2023

macOS and Mac Apps

Looking for any instructions or lesson material to assist me (voice over user) to master Numbers on my (new to me) Mac air Ventura. I am trying to set up a spread sheet for simple financial book keeping. Currently I am pulling out my hair - teaching myself is not working. All suggestions welcome. Much appreciated.

Interacting

By Roland

Hi Catherine,
usually Numbers is not the worst app in terms of VO usage.
However the key points for me were when to interact and when to use the arrow keys just like in Excel.
Depending on where you start you reach different "levels" when navigating. What you probably want is to interact with the "Sheet 1" first and then again with the "Table 1" In any case it should also be possible to use the TAB key to move from left to right and the arrow keys to let you navigate by lines. (I am using a localized version of numbers so the English terms may not exactly match) Entering numbers or text works very similar to Excel from that point on. However, the formatting is done by navigating to the formatting section on the top level or press the VO command to move to linked object, VO + J in my case.
