You're welcome. It took me far too long to get this done actually. > While reading continuously, the scrolling are functioning > automatically most of the times.

If you do light reading (not much pressure with your fingers) ATC will eventually miss some characters being touch. Cranking the sensitivity up to maximum does help here. However, in my experience, you still occasionally manage to touch a cell which is not reported back to the screen reader. The algorithm inside BRLTTY which decides when a line has been read completely keeps track of all fresh cells which do have dots set. Whenever BRLTTY notices some of these cells have been touched, they are set to "read". When a certain treshold of read cells is reached, and the last touched cell wase at the end of the set cells, auto forward is executed. So, if it doesn't work for you, there are three things you/we can do: 1. Try explicitly touching one of the last letters on the display. 2. Set braille sensivitity to something more sensitive. 3. We can adjust the treshold in the source code to be more tolerant to missed touched cells. Since this rather crude approach is totally of my own invention, I'd be happy to hear some feedback from Felix if this is a workable approach, or if there are simple, non-proprietary things we could add to it to make BRLTTY support ATC better on Linux and Android. -- CYa, ⡍⠁⠗⠊⠕ _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
