the visual display window is also referred to as the editing window. It occupies most of the program main window and has vertical scrollbars. It is a standard size editing window in which multiple lies of text can be word processed, and is also used in communication mode as a standard terminal screen, as opposed to the Braille display line, whic is a single-line window at the bottom of the communications area.

When the Braille dsisplay ine has the focus, which is the default for communications mode the text in the visual window can still be scrolled up and down with the bars or PageUp and PageDown keys, but does not show a cursor. when the visual window has the focus, it behaves exactly like a normal editig window such as Windows Notpad.

While typing or receiving text from a remote computer or the telephone when the Braille display line has the focus places the text in the visual window as well as the Braille reading buffer, text typed or received in editing mode, when the visual window hs the focus, is not written to the Braille reading buffer. When text is written t the visual window whe it does not have the focus, it is entered at the cursor position as lst set when working in editing mode, or at the end by default, even though the cursor is not actually displayed when the focus is not in that area.
