Hi, Guys.
Using an iPhone with an NLS eReader and VoiceDream Writer to edit and proofread a document. I mainly use a Braille display to read text on my phone, so am not sure how to ask this.
When I open a document that needs to be edited, I know that the VO/app cursor is at the top of the document on the first word. I can use the navigation keys to read through the document with no problem. When I get to a place where the text needs to be corrected, how do I get the app cursor to where the Braille/reading cursor is? In the PC/JFW world you can route one cursor to another, or choose whether the Braille cursor will move the Active cursor or vice versa. Is there such an option in the IOS world?
Thanks for any thoughts/suggestions.

routing button
if your braille display has routing buttons, you just push the button above the character where you want the cursor to be. Otherwise, it’s extremely difficult.
The Router Trick Doesn't Work if you Scroll Pages
Hi, Greg.
I can do the router thing to a certain extent e.g., if I use the panning keys within a multi-line edit field to read till I find something that needs to be corrected. .
However, it doesn't work when I open a document and want to scroll to a different page to edit from there (for example, I stopped my work session to go cook dinner and now am coming back to pick up where I left off). I can use either the three-finger-up/down command or the 3456-space/1456-space commands and can hear the page numbers change because VO announces it. The Braille display text does _not change, so I can't use the routing buttons to go anywhere except where the 7-8 blinking cursor is.
Ideas?
