Accessibility Strategy

kV’s Accessibility Strategy: text manipulation; accurate

kV detects automatically which Strategy to use, but sometimes you may wish to enforce the Keyboard Strategy even when the text is Accessible. You can do so by pressing fn while doing a move. This is useful when you’re in a text input but want to scroll through the UI (scrollbars) rather than the text/caret, or to move from one input to another in some apps with custom UI (e.g. Things 3, Logseq).
