Control Center and Keyboard

Fn-C is the method macOS. provides to open Control Center.


Is there a way to use Magic Keyboard to navigate in and open modules in Control Center?

For example, to toggle Focus on and off.


System Preferences, Dock & Menu Bar has a left side column with a Control Center section where with a click the keyboard can scroll up or down to Focus and other modules. I am finding keyboard is almost useless.

Mac Pro, macOS 12.5

Is Screen Mirroring a CC sub menu? Notice that Mirroring menu has no icons (in your screen shot). Your brilliance there leads me to a lethal conclusion.


Menu bar Status region menus containing icons cannot be opened using expected keyboard access. Any attempt to use expected keyboard access to Status region icons in the menu bar that contain menus with images will terminate that keyboard access IMMEDIATELY.


WHICH IS EVEN MORE TWISTED WHEN WE CONSIDER PREFERENCE THAT TOGGLES STATUS REGION FOCUS ICON

Ergo, the functionality to keyboard image menus is there. For some unknown reason Apple is attacking literacy (keyboard use)!
