Hello,
I am developing an app for MacOS and iOS using SwiftUI and I want to include a better experience for braille display users.
Braille display users use VoiceOver to access to the OS and all apps.
My problem: I want to show an image with data.
I have no problem for VoiceOver's voice output, I use the accessibilityLabel attribute to give information using a speech output channel.
But I want to give a better format for braille output channel because deaf and blind users can find problem with the information in the accessibilityLabel value.
I found information about AXBrailleMap and AXBrailleMapRenderer but there is not any code sample and I couldn't use AXBrailleMapRenderer.
The information in the documentation seems not enough to do anything.
I tryed to use with Swift an NSView, a SwiftUI view and a NSView in ObjectiveC but I couldn't get any success.
I need to do these tasks:
* to Get the dimension of the braille display
* to print a custom string in the braille display
* to get and to set specific points up and down in the braille display to draw a little icon.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks in advance

Hello,
I want to improve UX for users who uses braille devices.
I am using accessibilityLabel in SwiftUI to show information for blind users but I want to give a better experience for braille users using special characters like a block in braille to draw simple figures. Those characters cannot be spoken by TextToSpeech and that is the reason that I need an alternative of accessibilityLabel only for braille devices.
Is this possible in UIKit, AppKit or SwiftUI?
I preffer using SwiftUI but I will use anything to get this.
Thanks in advance
