We have duplicated this and are looking in to it.

To show one exact example, of my problem, copy and paste the below
20 lines into a blank document in Notepad. You will find, that there
is 20 lines, holding the word 'program' followed by a consequtive
number - running from 01 to 20. This is just to make the example
more straight to the point. I realized the prblem yesterdqay, as I
was doing some editing in a text document of a few thousand lines,
and where I had to do the foolowing search task.
1. Copy and paste the lines into Notepad.
2. Goto the top of the document (CTRL-HOME).
3. Press CTRL-F, and the edit box for the search term, will open.
Enter 'program' (omit the apostrophes), then press Enter, followed
by the ESCAPE key.
4. Your Braille display will now show 'program 01'
5. Press F3, to go to the next found occurance of the word program.
6. Your Braille display will still show program 01. Press F3 twice
more, and finally, your display will change to 'program 04'.
7. Press F3, again, and notice that the Braille line does not
change, until the THIRD press on the F3 key, when it all the certain
Changes to program 07.
8. Continue the above steps, but now try to press END, after each F3
pressing. You will notice, that the Braille display now shows up the
actual line, that F3 takes you to - program 08, program 09, program
10, program 11, etc.
Seems like WE has a bug here. Muy Braille display is running in the
'constructed' (that is the normal WE Braille) mode.
Hope this will be fixed, before 7.1 makes its final release.
Another thing, first we are talking about the search feature, it
would have been great if the user could have set we to Read-Out the
line it landed on, when doing a search. As it is, WE simply just
announces 'find next', on each pressing of the F3. Quite little
helpful, and rather anoying, when you are searching through a text,
where you have to do several F3-presses, in a row. If you want to
know, what the search actually got you to, you will have to do a up
arrow, and then a Down-arrow, to have WE speak out the actual line.
Many years ago, actually I am of the oldtimers who started out with
DOS, I used a screen reader, which had the capability to define
macros, on the cursor, and function keys, even on the tab, and
backspace keys. This meant, that the user could make F3 do the
search, and then the reading of the line, or whatever feature he
wanted carried out. HM! Really one of these cases, when not all step
forwards, and new software, is really steps forward. :) What if WE
had such capabilities? :D
