Now don't get me started....
Braille Extender add on does this, but for some odd reason it has no key
defined for it by default. Surely such an option needs to be in the core
since there are a lot of users now, and getting more due to the cheaper
displays, though of course I think most of the cheap ones at the moment are
only 6 dot.

Subject: [nvda] Braille request

My request is that NVDA have a way to turn off dots 7 and 8.

In standard brf files, such as those from the BARD website of the U.S.
National Library service, all letters and some
additional symbolls are in upper case. I have BraileExtender and can
switch between English U.S. Grade 2 and English
U.S. 6 dot computer Braille. But the latter is not 6 dot. Dot seven
sticks up almost continually, making
reading unpleasant. We need a way to tell NVDA that all letters and
symbolls are 6 dot.

Thamnks,
John
