Hi,
I tried this using a BrailleNote Apex while in the Notes app and had no luck. Two questions:
Do I have to be in some sort of edit box to get this to work?
If not, can I select text in Safari or in the mail app, or while reading a book using iBooks, Kindle or read2go?

Curious about this because pinching in and out is clumsy for me.

Tom

Hi, Richard,

Thanks much. I'm familiar with those commands, but they only select character, word, and line, depending on the rotor setting. I'd like to select larger chunks of text, including all, from cursor to end, and from cursor to beginning.

Thanks,
Teresa

Subject: Selecting Text Using a Braille Display?

Hi, folks,

Is there a way to select text with a Braille display without double-tapping the screen? If I use the rotor to chose "edit" and then "select all", then use the router keys on the Braille display, nothing happens. I used to use the selection key on my Focus 40, but its function has changed to starting
and stopping music.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Teresa
