so basically once a call is initiated, you have absolutely zero keypad access. this means calls on yosemite are useless when calling any automated system ("press 1 for this... 2 for that..." etc)

and before anyone says anything, the 3rd party "continuity dialer" is only for initially dialling. it doesn't help for in-call input.

Thanks Alimar,

Hopefully continuity keypad does evolve over time.

I just discovered after searching around that you can in fact do in-call input with your keyboard directly. It feels very hidden though, with no visual cues. Better than nothing though!

Thank you! Glad I have a full-sized Logitec keyboard!
