Hi folks,
Found a slightly quicker solution for the Unicode Table problem
where an exception is given when attempting to assign a braille
dot combination for displaying a character (note that this only
involves Apex itself):
Problem: When attempting to assign a dot combination to an
extended character, KeySoft displays an exception message.
Possible cause: Possible corruption and write protection of
Unicode Tables and some computer braille table files.
Solution: Deleting "current" version of Unicode Tables (and some
custom computer braille tables in use) and restoring system
default versions.
Procedure:
1. Using any method (File Browser or whereever file and folder
structure can be viewed), go to Dictionaries folder on Flash Disk
and locate the file named Unicode Tables.
2. Delete this file (if asked for confirmation, say yes).
3. Go to Options/Support Information Mode.
4. Press BACKSPACE with R (CTRL plus FN plus R on QT). Apex
says, "restoring Flash Disk basic files." After a few moments
(during which installation messages will be heard), the process
will be completed with the message that the files were restored.
Then try assigning a dot combination for display on the braille
display. If you see the prompt, "character is displayed as
nothing" or "character is displayed using dot combination," then
the problem is fixed. If "exception" message is displayed, you
may need to delete Unicode Tables file and other "custom"
computer braille tables in use and restore default files again
(note that you'll lose custom key/macro/ddplay assignment).
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Joseph
