I am using a Focus 14. I want to flick up to select the delete option on my e-mail. Is there a keystroke to do this on the Braille Display?

Yes, there is.

You will need to insure your rotor is set to "Actions." You can do this on the display by pressing space and dots 2-3 or dots 5-6. Space with dots 2-3 will move you to the previous rotor setting, while space with dots 5-6 will move you to the next rotor setting. After moving to the "Actions" setting, press space with dot 3 or dot 6 to flick up and down, respectively. Hope this helps, Shersey

Thanks

Thanks, that did the trick. It never occured to me that I was using a rotor setting. Well, we learn something new every day.

No problem, Cathy.

By the way, there may be keys on your display, that when pared with an iDevice, perform certain functions. I use a Brailliant, and I have some keys that will move the display to the next rotor setting or perform the flicking gesture. It might be a good idea to go into the "VoiceOver Practice" area when your display is pared to learn what the function that extra keys perform when your display is pared with your iDevice. Thanks, Shersey
