Hi, Sue. It doesn't matter which Shift you hold down for anything. They both
will do the same thing, so hold down whichever one feels more natural for
you. Take care.

Hi Sarah,
I use a Braille display and am wondering if you have to hold down the left
shift, or can it be the right shift?? If I used right shift I coulld read
the displayi while selecting.
