Hi Jill,
I think there might be a change that we as braille display users can make.
Unfortunately, not being a geek, and having one who fixes everything in the
geeky arena for me, I don't know what it is. I'm sorry I'm no help, and
just tempting you with hopeful news. I'll ask and see if Jon can remember
what he might have changed to make the difference in my display. Don't hold
your breath though. We both have notoreously holey memories.
Mayrie

Mayrie, Are you saying that there is a change we can make so that the
braille display doesn't show the slash with the dots 4,5,6 preceding it? I
assumed this had been a change in the braille translation program Bookshare
is using.

Hi Kim,
I really do think that your seeing the dots 4-5-6 before a slash is due to a
setting in your braille device, not bookshare's processing of books. I say
this because I now see what you see, but didn't until we adjusted some
setting or other in my screen reader's configuration for my braille display.
I just never bothered to ask to have it changed back. Maybe you could look
into the settings on your BrailleNote?

Hi, my BrailleNote translates the slash with a three-dot combination (dots
4-5-6) which someone remarked is an underscore sign. I hate that sign before
the slash, so if there was any way to get rid of that I would be very happy
indeed. Also for the word cup, I see no need for a capital sign (dot 6)
before the letter C . just make sure there is a period after the letter.
Regards, Kim.
