HiAlex,
You are correct that space-G will toggle between contracted and uncontracted braille in VO. When I poked around in the VO utility-braille and clicked on "assigned keystrokes," I was only given a short countdown to input the new keystroke to change the setting. Do I need to tab to a table for the list of assigned keystrokes in VO for braille? This is all new to me, as I begin increasing my skills and venturing out from the basics. Thanks in advance for your assistance.

There, as the name suggests, you can change any commands you don't like in addition to reviewing what is already there. As to your braille grade, there is no relation between it and the Apex's settings. The Mac is driving everything, so simply be sure to enable or disable contracted braille in VO's braille settings. There should also be a command to do this, and space-g is coming to mind, but I might be thinking of iOS.

There wasn't much in the latter. I did put on keyboard help and noticed a number of keystrokes with the Apex that weren't assigned. I'm assuming that I can use these in assigning a keystroke with VO. The problem still exists with the inability to pan from line to line and seeing the text on the Apex's braille display in uncontracted braille. I also made sure that the Apex contracted braille was turned on and it was. This is very funky. The experience with my iPhone4 is quite different, with other items to get use to. Any further suggestions on how to problem solve this would be great. Thanks to all that have responded.

If someone can point me in the right direction that would be fantastic. I just started exploring this today. My display doesn't have a braille keyboard for input, so the keys will be different. However, if you invoke VoiceOver keyboard help with control-option-k, you should then be able to press keys, or combinations of keys, on the braille display to find out what commands have been assigned to them. The VoiceOver documentation also lists braille display commands, most involving entering braille characters in combination with the space bar, i.e., as chords, as they used to be called. Special keys, buttons etc., on your display should also be associated with commands. If not, you can use the VoiceOver utility to assign commands to keys as you wish. I hope this helps. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
