BrailleNote Touch Version 3.0 Release Notes
Note that version 3.0 is a much larger download containing many features and
enhancements. It should be expected that the download of the version can
take about double the time of version 2.0. Download times vary based on
internet speed.
New Features:
* Single localization package. On first boot, users select their
language.
* Included are many languages Compact voices. New users will be
prompted to download a high quality version of that voice if one is
available upon first connection to the internet.
* Note that the TTS engine has been updated and a compact voice will
be installed on your BrailleNote Touch with this update. You will have to
re-download your voices.
* Implementation of recent android components to improve WebView
accessibility.
* KeyWord now supports the opening of multiple documents. Note that
when one switches away from documents, that document is automatically saved.
For improved performance, turning on read-only mode on documents which you
are not editing, will avoid needing to save the document every time it is
switched from. There is no limit to the number of documents that can be open
at one time, keeping in mind that the larger the documents and more
documents that are open will reduce performance.
* KeyWord now remembers your last location in a document when
switching from one document to another.
* Users can now use up to 4 Acapela voices on their BrailleNote Touch.
* Up to 10 language profiles are now available.
* Added a multitude of Braille tables (Duxbury and Liblouis). The
Touch now supports 339 different braille tables.
* Added new TTS voices selectable for download. (See list below)
* Ability to replace the primary TTS voice by another voice of the
same language.
* KeyMail: added "Always respond inline" option in the KeyMail account
settings.
* General performance improvements.
Fixes and Enhancements:
* Fixed an issue where users could not click on links in emails when
the link was off the physical screen.
* Space with G will now read continuously in KeyMail and other apps
where it previously was not functioning.
* General performance improvements to KeyMail.
* Fixed an issue where the visual screen would remain on after boot
even if the user had turned it off. This will improve battery life.
* Improved stability of braille manager when device is booted.
* Fixed issues with many WebView situations.
* If a user closes a document, then reopens that same document with
math content, they can now edit that math content in KeyMath.
* Fixed problem in KeyWord: When using Left or right to pan in a
document, the focus is placed out of the edit box when reaching the top or
the end.
* Fixed missing braille content when using UEB.
* Improved retention of content when bringing some BRF files from past
braille devices to the Touch. Characters are no longer lost.
* Fixed Braille Terminal issues which caused crashes when a computer
was shut down or the Touch was not connected when starting Braille Terminal
mode.
* Improved KeyWord's ability to open large documents.
* KeyCalc now uses appropriate decimal separator for system language.
* Fixed situations where a proxy server setting would not be
remembered when the Touch is rebooted. Note: For those using proxy server
settings for an internet connection, you will need to back up your personal
data and perform a factory reset on your unit after the 3.0 update is
installed to correct the proxy server problem. Factory resets wipe all user
data. If you do not use proxy connections or don't know what that is, there
is no need to factory reset your device.
