Navigational keys SHIFT and SELECT are not working on Focus Blue braille displays
Steps to reproduce:
- Install driver for Focus Blue braille displays
- Start NVDA and configure the braille settings for the Freedom Scientific Focus (see my configs attached in screenshot)
- Open a simple text editor like Notepad
- Write a sentence
- On the Focus Blue, press the LEFT SHIFT key on the front panel and one of the CURSOR ROUTER buttons to select some text, then press LEFT SHIFT + DOTS 1-4 (c in braille) to copy
- On the Focus Blue, press the SELECT BUTTON and the LEFT PANNING BUTTON to go to the beginning of the file
- On the Focus Blue, press the LEFT SHIFT + DOTS 1-2-3-6 (v in braille) to paste
Expected behavior:
Step 5: LEFT SHIFT + CURSOR ROUTER should select your text from the blinking cursor to point of the router button and LEFT SHIFT + DOTS 1-4 (c in braille) should copy your selected text Step 6: SELECT BUTTON + LEFT PANNING BUTTON should send your cursor to the beginning of the file Step 7: LEFT SHIFT + DOTS 1-2-3-6 (v in braille) should paste your copied text
Actual behavior:
Step 5: LEFT SHIFT + CURSOR ROUTER - text is selected (OK); LEFT SHIFT + DOTS 1-4 - it's not clear until Step 7 that it didn't actually copy Step 6: SELECT BUTTON + LEFT PANNING BUTTON - nothing happens Step 7: LEFT SHIFT + DOTS 1-2-3-6 (v in braille) - nothing happens
System configuration:
