Hi Eleanor,
Yes, predictive makes the phone read kind of word by word. It reads the
first char, then the whole word. Turn that off if you want to read char
by
char.
All the best
Steve

Hi Eleanor
If you want to cursor through any text letter by letter, you need to
press your TALKS key, then hold down the number two key on your phone
keypad until you hear TALKS say Cursor Mode Is Letters. There is a
cycle where you press TALKS followed by the long press of keypad number
two to skip between letters, words and original. When you get to Cursor
Mode Is Letters, you leave it there, and you should then be able to
arrow through your text letter by letter. Remember that this is not to
be confused with TALKS key followed by just pressing number two on your
keypad. You must hold down the number two key until you hear TALKS
announce whichever mode it is in, letters, words, or original.
I hope this clarifies that for you.

Subject: [talks-uk] Reading Notes character by Character
Hi and in particular to Steve Nutt
Now before you say Steve that I should try it myself, I have!
When my Wayfinder Access would not work, you very kindly gave me the
code over the telephone. I decided that in event of me being locked out
again from WFA I would make a note of the Key. This I did in notes.
When I went to access the key, i.e. read the key so that I could put it
in again. I could not access it character by character even though I
had the cursor set to read character by character. It insisted on
reading the initial character followed by a word. for example W
wayfinder A access C code T which was the first letter of the code
followed by a sort of word from the other letters. Now what is going on
here?
Eleanor
