Hi Steve,
I don't actually believe this is a "bug" as such, but I have asked for
confirmation from Duxbury.
Simply inserting codes into a DBT braille file will have no effect
because at that stage they are not designed to trigger any kind of
translation. Forcing a back-translation will retain the code, and of
course when you translate yet again, the codes will take effect.
I think we also have to consider and appreciate that direct braille
editing is just that. If codes were to start changing things like this,
it would then become in a way, rather like Word's annoying autocorrect
as you type.
However, if I'm entirely wrong, I have absolutely no doubt I will
receive a corrective note from Duxbury.
George Bell.

Hi everyone,
I'm using DBTW 10;4, and I think I may have found a minor bug. While
writing a braille document, I inserted the [cbi] and [txi] codes at the
beginning and end of an Email address, but when I turned Show Codes off,
the beginning and ending computer braille indicators were not there. I
back-translated the file to see if the codes would be brought into the
print file, and they were. I translated the print file back into
braille, and the indicators were there as they should be. It seems as
if the [cbi] and [txi] codes are not being processed properly in braille
documents. I'd be interested in anyone else's experiences with this.
Steve
