Tip: In the unlikely event that your Dolphin product encounters an error, you can help improve your Dolphin software by providing any information as to what you were doing at the time. To opt-in to the Product Improvement Program, when your Dolphin access software is running, open the Control Panel with CONTROL + SPACE. Open the "Help" menu with ALT + H and choose "Customer Feedback..." and follow the prompts.

FIX: For magnification users, the bitmap handle translation is now more reliable, preventing some intermittent magnification freezes.
Improvement: A new way for turning off ClearType has been included for Windows XP, Windows 7 32/64 bit.

Fix: The GetAreaState now only adds slider/range/position states for areas that have these details.
Fix: Scripting: A fix has been implemented for the reported crash when calling GetAreaProperties.

Script Editor

Fix: The text size limit has been removed on the debug output window.

SAM 2.53

SAM is Dolphin's Braille and Synthesizer Access Manager. If you wish to add a new refreshable Braille Display or Speech Synthesizer to your system for use with Dolphin Access software pressing the "Detect All Devices" button from within the SAM dialog will install support for most devices.
Due to the improvements in the Dolphin patching systems, it is now possible to share SAM improvements via downloadable patches and the Dolphin internet updater.
NEW: A new Seika Braille display driver (2.2.0.68) has now been added.
FIX: A change in behaviour has been included so that a driver is detected when turned on with the checkbox in the SAM Control Panel. Previously, ticking the check box of a driver did not detect it and a "detect all" was required.
Fix: A series of fixes have been include to address the issue where SAM takes a long time to shut down.
Fix: SAM has been updated to handle non-null terminated description strings. This fix will be of interest to users working with some Papenmeier Braille displays.
NEW: SAM version 2.53 includes added support for the Closetime setting in .sdi file.
NEW: A new SAM control API command to allow clients to set/clear hwnd for messages from SAM has been included.
