Tile visuals to focus on the VoiceOver cursor on Mac
When you tile visuals, the screen is dimmed so that only the item in the VoiceOver cursor is visible in the centre of the screen. This feature can be helpful when you’re first learning to use VoiceOver.
Note: VO represents the VoiceOver modifier that you press with additional keys to enter VoiceOver commands. By default, you can press Control and Option together or just press Caps Lock.
Tile visuals: Press VO-Fn-F10.
The caption or braille panel moves to the top or bottom centre of the screen, while the item in the VoiceOver cursor moves to the centre of the screen and the rest of the screen is dimmed. As you navigate, the VoiceOver cursor stays in the centre of the screen and shows the item you navigated to.
Stop tiling visuals: Press VO-Fn-F10 again.
