Hi Rick,

Space with g is used to read with speech. That is no longer possible on the Touch with BRF files, because it is assumed that you want to read the Braille with your fingers. There may be a way to automatically move the display at a certain rate, but I don't know what it is. I think there's a way on the Apex, but I never use it.

Blessings,

Linda

Subject: [BNU] The Touch and Automatic Braille Book Reading

On the Apex, I often read Braille books (.brf files) in automatic reading
mode.

I'm probably missing something, but I don't know of a way to do this on the
Touch.

In the latest update, I believe space with g can now be invoked in Keymail
(and other applications) for automatic reading mode.

Not in keyBRF, though, it seems, which is at least where I'd expect to do
this.

Any suggestions for how to get this done?

I find it hard to believe that something so basic isn't included yet on the
device.

I hope I'm just missing something.
