Hi Esther,
I will look into Text Expander, it may be useful for me. It seems
sometimes my substitutions are working and sometimes not, even taking
into account cursoring up then down again, I must get someone sighted
to look at what I'm doing ad see whether the substitutions are being
made or not
Hi Catherine,
I should have thought of having you move away and then back to the word or line
in question to check that substitution was being done. The issue is that the
screen dynamically updates, and your screen reader is telling you what it it
read when you first navigated to that text. It
Hi Esther,
Ah, I have progress. It seems the substitution was being made but
Voiceover wasn't necessarily reporting it accurately. I discovered
that if I did the substitution and then went down onto a new line and
then cursored back up again VO would read it accurately. THis also
happens with t
Hi Catherine and Colin,
I thought that Catherine was probably using TextEdit, but the instructions I
gave her should have worked for Mail (and notes in Mail), too. Catherine, when
you type in your first string, just type the semi-colon and the a, and then
press tab. Then, in the next field, pa
Hi,
Ah, silly me, had thought because it wasn't in the Dock, and also
wasn't sure if it was of the optional things I didn't pay for when I

Launchpad, thanks for pointing that out...

Hi Esther,
Thanks for these instructions. I haven't been able to get the text
substitution to work though. This is most likely something I've done
wrong but I can't figure out what.
I haven't got Textedit at the moment but I was trying it out with
Notes. In notes if I go to edit, Substitutions
Hi Catherine,
If you simply need to type an apostrophe, then the quickest way to enable you
to do that is to use your Mac's facility for keyboard substitution. This will
let you continue to use your Maltron keyboard, but give you access to the
apostrophe character when you type some other stri

I use StickeyKeys also and when I want to lock the option key or any of the
modifier keys all I have to do is press the particular key twice. This locks
it until the key is pressed witch unlocks the key in use.
