Where Am I Commands

Orca's Where Am I feature gives you context-sensitive details about your present location. For instance, in tables, Where Am I will give you details about the table cell you are in, but in text it will present the current line along with any text which happens to be selected. The full list of what you can expect Orca to present can be found in the Introduction to Where Am I.

Orca provides the following Where Am I commands:

  • Perform basic Where Am I:

    • Desktop: KP Enter

    • Laptop: Orca Modifier+Return

  • Perform detailed Where Am I:
