Not just in text edit. Even just when vo'ing around I can't read long lines of text. Like for example, a button with a long name.

The long lines are anything longer than 20 characters; usually only a word or two.

VO doesn't seem to see them as 20 separate keys. Yeah, Apple needs to do more work on panning then because I can't read all the words of a long line.

I am still trying to get my pm display to pan left and rightand to scroll. VO doesn't scroll it so that I see all the text in a line;Ijust see the first couple words... sometimes only one word if it's a longword since my display is only 20 cells. I have the VO manual but still haven't figured out what I am doing wrong. lol I also don't think VO is seeing each button as a separate button. My displayhas two rows of cursor-routing buttons and VO doesn't seem to number them1 to 20 etc. Sara----- Original Message ----- From: "Richie Gardenhire" <richiegardenhire@xxxxxxx>To: <macvoiceover@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>Cc: "General discussions on all topics relating to the use of Mac OS X bythe blind" <discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, July 08, 2008 11:32 AM Subject: [macvoiceover] VoiceOver and Braille Display QuestionHello, I have never used a braille display with VoiceOver, and my question is, do the supported braille devices/displays have associated chords which are recognized by VoiceOver? In other words, can the braille device/display, in question, be used as a command facilitater or must these commands be performed directly from the Apple keyboard?
