Dynamic Lists
Prediction
Mind Express 4 provides an abundance
of symbols. Bliss, SymbolStix, Mulberry
and the Sclera symbol libraries are now
included for free with Mind Express 4.
What makes Mind Express 4 even easier
to use are dynamic lists.
Mind Express 4 now supports: Word
Prediction, Symbol prediction and
sentence/phrase prediction. Any
combination can be used on a page.
Users can also create their own
sentences and store them for easy
retrieval at a later date. Users can also
create documents that can be saved,
printed and read out.
Other symbol libraries available are: Beta,
PCS, Picto, ARASAAC, Picture This and
Widgit Symbols. Personal images can
also be used.
For example, by pressing the + symbol
under each heading the other boxes
will dynamically change showing more
symbols of that list. This is a good way of
having more vocabulary items on a single
page without the need for multiple pages.
Using the inbuilt picture editor it is possible
to edit and modify all symbols. Multiple
symbols can also be used in one cell.
It is possible to have multiple dynamic
lists on a single page.
