Selecting Radio Buttons
All elements within the CV user interface are accessible via the keyboard when the user sets the Accessible user interface theme. CV enables the use of keystrokes to navigate to and from on-screen elements and to activate menus and functions. Keystrokes may also be used within various windows and dialog boxes to allow users to select from a list of elements or options. In general, where radio buttons are present, use the arrow keys to move between and select radio button options. Pressing Tab with a radio button in focus will jump to the next field and does not change a radio button selection.
Areas where radio buttons appear include:
- Patient Search. After clicking Search Patient Assignments in the CCPM module, the Patient Search pane opens displaying search options. By default, the My Site radio button is selected and keyboard focus is in the Search field (sample snippet shown below). To change to Enterprise search, press Shift + Tab while focus is in the Search field, and then press the right arrow key to move the radio button selection to Enterprise. To continue with the search, press Tab to shift keyboard focus to the search criteria fields.

- CV Settings. If you are changing the user interface theme while the theme is Accessible, use the left and right arrow keys to change the radio button selection in the Settings dialog box. In the following example, pressing the right arrow key while Accessible is selected will change the selection to Default (theme). Pressing Tab from the desired selection will place the Save button in focus, and then pressing Enter will successfully change the user interface theme.

Note: If you would like to close a window pane or dialog box without making changes, press Alt + 4 to put the Close button in keyboard focus and then press Enter.
