Re: Scrolling up and down with Bluetooth Braille Display
I don't have a braille bluetooth device myself, but from what I've read on list, it sounds to me like the braille support is provided by Apple, which I think would frustrate me a bit. Sure the consistency is nice if I'm jumping from braille device to braille device, but the fact that I couldn't take advantage of the features unique to my device would be annoying. I'd easily put up with the inconvenience of having to learn some new commands if I could take advantage of more advanced features in each device and not settle for the lowest common denominator. If Android opened up these more advanced features then I'd consider that pretty beautiful. On 05/07/2015 01:32 PM, Scott Davert wrote: That's correct, Wayne.

Re: Scrolling up and down with Bluetooth Braille Display
AFAIK, those two keys are just shift keys not used for navigating the phone. Press k-chord on it to have it speak the keys as you press them. B-chord to Back out of VO Help. There's no auto-advance on the Focus with the iPhone. And I know of no way to slow down the on-screen scrolling (except to slow speech down a lot). Even then it'll scroll too fast, so you just have to read as best you can on the Braille display. If the material you're reading is good, you'll enjoy it and get into the rhythm. -Original Message- From: Melissa Tucker Sent: Monday, May 04, 2015 2:02 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Scrolling up and down with Bluetooth Braille Display I got my focus 40 about two weeks ago and after reading the manual, I can't figure out a couple of things. this is related to using it on an iphone 5s.

RE: Scrolling up and down with Bluetooth Braille Display
Try the number sign chord and the backwards number sign chord, that might work.

Using the Braille Edge, and attempting to read Bookshare books in read 2 go, you have to be able to scroll up and down, instead of scrolling left to right. I am trying to find out the Braille command to scroll up and down by page, but I can only find a way to scroll left and right. I can find the standard bluetooth keyboard command, option up and option down, but am looking for the braille equivalent.

Re: Scrolling up and down with Bluetooth Braille Display
Braille equivalent for page turning is chord O or chord OW. Hope that helps. That’s chord dots 1 3 5, and chord 2 4 6. Hope that helps. Happy reading.

Re: Scrolling up and down with Bluetooth Braille Display
How about: Dots 1-456 to scroll down 1 page; and dots 3-456 to scroll up 1 page. That is how it is with the Focus displays. To check: first press dots 1-3 with spacebar, the braille equivalent of VO Help. b+spacebar is the Escape or back key. -Original Message- From: Jim Fettgather Sent: Friday, May 01, 2015 6:47 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Scrolling up and down with Bluetooth Braille Display Hello.

Scrolling up and down with Bluetooth Braille Display
(Both with spacebar.) .) How about: Dots 1-456 +SPACE to scroll down 1 page; and dots 3-456 +SPACE to scroll up 1 page. Page right-and-left is o-chord and ow-chord. That is how it is with the Focus displays. To check: first press dots 1-3 with spacebar, the braille equivalent of VO Help. b+spacebar is the Escape or back key. -Original Message- From: Jim Fettgather Sent: Friday, May 01, 2015 6:47 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Scrolling up and down with Bluetooth Braille Display Hello.
