New in this release

  1. The English version includes an expanded Presage database for word prediction.
  2. Bug fixes from the previous release

Refer to the ACAT User Guide for details on the new features.

  1. Portuguese Language pack added. ACAT is now available in English, French, Spanish and Portuguese.
  2. Support for multi-modal gestures for off-the-shelf switch boxes with multiple switches. For instance, if a switch box has two switches, one can be mapped as the selector and the other to a command such as "undo the last editing change", or to "restart the scanning sequence". Mapping is done through the "Keyboard Actuator" setting in the "Actuators" option in the ACAT Config utility. The default trigger key (F12) can also be changed. All this can be done through the ACAT Config utility.
  3. A Phrases editor for adding/deleting/updating phrases that can be converted to speech. In the earlier versions of ACAT, this functionality was embedded in the Abbreviations editor. The Phrases editor can be accessed from the Settings menu. The editor also allows you to re-order phrases for faster access to the more frequently used phrases.
  4. ACAT applications are now DPI-aware. The interfaces looks sharper as it is now scaled to the native resolution of the monitor. The previous versions which were not DPI-aware resulted in fuzzy renditions of the UI elements as they depended on the Desktop Windows Manager (DWM) component of Windows to perform default scaling. The difference is more pronounced on high-resolution monitors (4K).
  5. Automatically adjusts to changes in screen resolution, for instance, if an external monitor or projector is connected.
  6. Contextual support added for the Windows Calculator (Win7, Win8 and Win10). The contextual menu mirrors all the buttons in the Standard calculator
  7. Contextual support added for the Windows 10 Photos app.
  8. Contextual support added for the Windows Edge Browser on Windows 10
  9. A new ACAT FAQ document has been added to the documentation. It has quick answers and tips for some of the most commonly asked questions.

Bugs found in the previous release have been fixed.
