I set mine to 4 and four characters before the righthand end of the
line, the bell rings. This is a wonderful feature for JAWS users. I wish
MS-Word had such a feature. Maybe it does and I don't know about it.

OOPS!  Sorry, Anne.  Looks like I forgot to put an Alt Tab on the screen
shot.  My bad.

 

However, if you call up the Global, View Preferences dialog, the first
field is labelled "Margin Bell Position:"  Enter a value in the field -
in your case, a zero.

 

George.

Subject: [duxuser] Question about margin bell

 

I went on a search to find out how to set the margin bell. This is what
I found in the Help menu.

 

"Margin bell position: This feature is ONLY available when using 6 key
entry with a braille file.  This feature is much the same as the bell on
a Perkins
brailler, and indeed you will hear an actual Perkins bell sound though
your computer's sound card. (Assuming you have one)

In the illustration above, the sound will be emitted when you reach the
5th last cell on the line.  To turn the feature off, enter"

 

As a JAWS user, I have no reference for the illustration above
mentioned. Can someone tell me how to set the margin bell?a position of
zero.
