How to interact with your screen

Show names
No alt supplied for Image
If you’re not sure what the name of the item is, you can say, “Show names” to display an overlay with the item names.
Show numbers
No alt supplied for Image
If an item doesn’t have a name, or if you would prefer to use numbers instead, you can say, “Show Numbers” to display numeric tags for each item on your screen

Speaking a number on the grid will enlarge that area of the grid and present a new set of numbers, which will make it easier for you to select an item.
The grid can also be used when dragging items on screen to identify where you would like to drop them, or when performing gesture or freehand actions

After speaking your next command, the grid will disappear.

To return to a previous screen or menu, say, “Go back.”
