3.2 Input Method
Your “input method” is the way you access the computer: switches, mouse, touch
screen, head pointer, eye gaze etc.
There are some useful settings in the Pointer Settings menu that can help if you
have difficulty with the touch screen or pointing device. You can find these in The
Grid 2 by opening User Settings then selecting Input Settings > Pointer > Settings.
Switch users will need to set up switches to work with their system. There are
different options for connecting different switches, e.g. with a Joystick or switches
built into a communication aid for example. There are many settings for more
advanced switch control. These changes are made in User Settings in the section
Input settings > Switch.
3.3 Visibility
You can adapt the text size and colour scheme to ensure that the grids are visually
accessible. The size of text that can be used depends on the resolution of the
screen as well as its size. Font and symbol sizes can be set up for each preset cell
styles (used for different types of cells). For example, the “Speak” cell uses the
“Action Cell” preset style. Changes to the appearance of this cell‟s colour, font
style or size or the relative picture size within the cell are made by editing a cell
and selecting Edit Style.
Note: A preset style is used by many cells across the Beeline user. Making changes
to a preset style will alter ALL of the cells using that style on all grids within that
User. To make changes to only one cell, the cell style must be “specified for this
cell‟s style individually”.
