Hi,

I have used several braille displays with WindowEyes. I really enjoy using the braille hot keys menu. I have added many hot keys and deleted or changed others. The braille hot keys are in the WE control panel, braille, settings, hot keys.

This feature works great with both 6-key and qwerty braille displays/notetakers. The more keys and buttons you have on your display, the more you can do.

My BrailleEdge 40 has 8 function buttons and 8 arrow keys, and 8 Perkins keys. I changed the buttons for control, alt, shift, and insert to be sticky control, sticky alt, sticky shift, sticky insert. It's easier for me to press sticky shift a than to hold down the shift key and the a key.

If I didn't have the shift button, I would have had to create 26 hot keys for the capital letters.

I also use a BrailleSense U2Q on another pc with WE. The shift keys on the BSPQ don't work as hot keys, so I created 26 keys for the capital letters using another key. Toggling the caps lock key on and off is a nuisance.

So, make use of the braille hot keys! They're a great enhancement!
