You could turn off word wrap. You didn't mention your braille display
width - 20, 40 cells? Now you may already have done or considered most of
the following, but here goes. It's either happening because you're still in
mid-line but the pan width of the display If being exceeded, or because the
line goes right to the end of the pan width. If you want to change the
behaviour, take a look through the braille options (of JAWS), where you can
make adjustments to suit your requirements. However, this is default and
quite normal. Consider word wrap. If a word takes you right down to the
end of a braille line, then there is going to be a space and that space will
be accommodated on the next line of the 'refreshable' braille display. You
are not reading the exact layout, because JAWS (or your screen reader) has
(by default) treated it - again, the braille options refer.

Subject: [duxuser] dbt with focus braille display
Hi folks
I'm using DBT 10.6 with a focus braille display, and sometimes I am finding
that column 1 does not always show in cell 1 of the display. It shows in
cell 2, leaving what appears to be a blank space in cell 1 which is actually
not there.
I have turned status cells off, and yet still this happens. I have also
experienced this on other braille displays. Let me be clear that this only
happens sometimes, and for example, when first opening a file, column 1 does
display correctly in cell one. It is only after doing some editing, moving
around etc, that I can't get it to return to this position. I use home etc
to get to the beginning of line which does not always resolve the problem.
Sometimes, jiggling the left and right arrows around fixes it temporarily.
Going into and out of menus sometimes fixes it too, but nothing works
consistently.
Is this common, and is there anything to make it permanently display
properly?
Thanks for any ideas.
Lisette
