Re: [orca-list] Use VirtualBox's Seamless Mode or VMware's Unity Mode

[Samantha Torusio <samtorusio gmail com>]

Thank you very much for the reply.

 Is there a way to easily transition in and out of a virtual machine where I am running a MacBook as the host and Linux as the guest virtual machine?

I have orca running in the virtual machine voiceover on the host, but cannot figure out how to get out of the best machine without using command q and then saving the state instead of exiting virtual machine. I am also using virtual box in case that matters.

This will not make the virtual machine accessible. All it does is put the windows of the guest OS on the host's taskbar or Alt + Tab / Command + Tab list. VoiceOver will not speak the contents of the programs though, only the guest OS, and OCR I suppose, can do that.

Good morning,

Is it possible to use VirtualBox's Seamless Mode or VMware's Unity Mode with screenreaders?

 I'm also curious of which OS's screenreader, I assume host, will read using it as the host is running Virtualbox or VM ware?

Could you use this to force accessibility upon a virtualized machine? I'm running OS X, so basically and asking if I could use either of these features to force applications in Virtual machines to be read by voiceover?
