Hi Nicola,
An interesting behavior. For testing, I was able to assign o
stroke to DOTS 1-3-5-8 - with no problems. I'm using 8 dot
computer braille.
The "exception" message sounds like a memory confusion on behalf
of Apex. The phrase "access violation reading 0" means that
KeySoft was trying to read from so-called "NULL" pointer/value -
an undefined location on memory. As Alex suggested, try
reassigning the key combinations after reset.
Cheers,
Joseph

Subject: [Braillenote] Unicode characters: Assigning dot
combinations stillbroken in Keysoft 9.1
Hi all,
Despite what Humanware claims in the release notes for Keysoft
9.1, there are still problems with the assignment of dot
combinations to certain unicode characters on the Apex BT. For
example, when I tried assigning a dot combination to the
character "o stroke", I received the following error message:
"Exception command: 404 at 3595. Access violation reading 0"
I sent a detailed message to Humanware about this problem after
the release of the Apex, and I was unable to trade in my Classic
because of it, since as a linguist I just can't afford to
relinquish this option. I was optimistic that it might have been
resolved by now, but alas, 'tis not to be, and my Classic lives
to fight another day!! I haven't had time for detailed tests,
but there may well be problems with key assignments as well as
dot assignments in some circumstances. I don't mean to sound
arrogant, but I can't help wishing that Humanware would have
these so-called "fixes" tested by users who have plenty of
experience with the bugs in question and may just conceivably
know what they're talking about, before releasing an upgrade
which turns out not to have solved the problems.
OK, rant over! If anyone can shed any light on the meaning of
the error message, I'd appreciate it.
Best,
Nicky
