I just checked this out. Yes, TalkBack does offer 8-dot French computer braille. Here's what you need to do: Open TalkBack's Actions screen and tap on Braille Settings. I'm sure you already know this. In there, you've probably tried using the Preferred Reading Language and Preferred Typing Language settings, but both of those only let you select from whichever languages have been activated. There's a setting just above those two called Languages, and you need to go there, first. On the Languages screen, you'll see the languages that have been activated so far, and, at the bottom, you'll find Add A Language. Go there. On that screen, if I navigate down to French and tap, it offers me these two tables: French (I assume this to be French literary braille) French 8-Dot Computer Braille Add the second table and you should then be able to select it as your preferred reading and/or typing languages. >if there's indeed access to the configuration through >the file system, do let me know. No, it doesn't look like there's a way. -- I believe the Bible to be the very Word of God: http://Mielke.cc/bible/ Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | WebHome: http://Mielke.cc/ EMail: [email protected] | Ottawa, Ontario | Twitter: @Dave_Mielke Phone: +1 613 726 0014 | Canada K2A 1H7 | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ http://mielke.cc/xmother.html (Letter from a Feminist ex-Mother) _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
