Hi,
Have you turned off apps to see if it is an installed third party app causing the issue?

I'm running the latest thunderbird with the latest TB Enhance app and am not seeing the issue, IE Braille is working for me using an Apex under Windows 8.11.

I should have clarified. This is in the reading window when using Thunderbird. I have no idea what the font numbers mean but it doesn't seem to have had any effect. This is the first time I've noticed anything like this. You'd think that it would be the same because the browse mode buffer should be the same across all apps, right?

Hi Vaughan,

Here's a long-shot, but, in Thunderbird's Options, in the Composition Tab, in the General Sub-Tab, there is a setting for the font to use. I'm wondering what would be the effect of choosing a Fixed-width rather than variable-width font? If this doesn't help, what about tabbing down to Size and choosing something other than Medium? Finally, what about changing the background colour; okay, the foreground seems to be white, but I'm not sure what BFFFFFFFF is; ideally, we want white on black.

Thanks,

Rod

Hi Rod.

In my case, I use the global braille settings across all apps, so if the problem is in the set file, it won't be a direct braille problem.

Could it conceivably be in the editor that Thunderbird uses?

Keen to take up your offer of help, so my question above at this stage is speculative.

Thanks.

Vaughan.

Hi Dave and Vaughan,

I'm not a braille display owner, and so I can't see why your experience of Thunderbird would be different than using any other program, unless there is something specific in the set file for TB. How can I help?

Thanks,

Rod
