Press alt f3 to toggle between formatted mode (the default) and codes mode
(where you can see and edit the codes. Actually, you can use the f5 key to
select and insert formatting codes, and you can use the f8 key to select styles
for selected text in either formatted or codes mode, but you won’t see the
actual codes in formatted mode.
By the way, while playing around with Duxbury today I discovered an unformatted
style while working in a document using the BANA UEB template.

Subject: [duxuser] Re: Specifying contractions to be translated?
Hello,
How does one read and edit codes by hand? So rather than pressing f1, I press
[g1]?
That is really odd there is no way to edit the translation dictionary. Can one
create their own translation dictionary?
What is the code list? There is a force contraction code...
This would become too tedious, I would rather just have a set list of
contractions that I can add or remove based on where the student is at.
Thanks,

Brandon,
There are shortcuts for specifying specific words to be translated into “grade
2” braille.
At the beginning of the DXP file, press alt-1. When you come to a word you want
to contract, press alt-2 and write the word out. Immediately after that word
(or words) press alt-1 again and continue until the next contracted word comes
up. Again press alt-2 before and alt-1 after. When you translate the document
into braille, you’ll see the contracted words you specified. If you have the
coded view on, you’ll see them the same as if you had gone to the codes list
and put in the codes you wanted.
I hope that made sense. If you have questions, you can always write back to me
and I’ll try to answer them.
