Hi, I’m Ricky Enger, and today we’ll learn a bit about keyboard shortcuts for making tasks easier without using a mouse.
You know, a lot of us have become pretty attached to our computer mouse, even if vision loss is making it harder to use. But it turns out that everything your mouse does can be done using the computer keyboard alone. No mouse required!
But one quick thing—if all you really need is a bit of enlargement, you can always make everything on your screen easier to see using built-in screen magnification. Check out the “Customizing Windows for Low Vision” series and the “iPhone/iPad Low Vision: Beginning Zoom Gestures” workshop for more information on screen magnification.
Okay, on to using your keyboard alone. To use a keyboard shortcut, you will be pressing two keys at the same time.
Now that you've had a chance to learn a bit with us, we'd like to learn more about you. Your email address, name, how you heard about Hadley, and your relationship to vision loss. Learning more will give us a better understanding of how to personalize Hadley just for you. And don't worry, everything you share with us online will be kept safe and secure. Of course, if you'd prefer to talk through these questions, we are just a phone call away at 800-323-4238.
Taking these few steps saves your preferences so you can continue right where you left off and track your progress every time you log on. Plus it connects you to the Hadley community and helps sustain our funding to keep Hadley free-of-charge. And last but not least, it gives you direct access to the Hadley team. So now is your chance to sign up and join us.
