    Hi Kyle,

    I was recently asked a question about the alignment of an arrow. I was also asked if there is a rule for this. I am attaching the information and the problem that was being looked at. Is there a rule on the way the arrow should be aligned and if so, what is the rule?

    "I noticed that the arrow pointing to the 2 is left aligned with the numeric indicator, which makes the directional portion of the arrow point at a blank cell. It is pretty clear that it is pointing to the 2, but I was curious what the rules say about alignment of arrows, so I looked for something specific in RUEB and Technical materials and so far have been unable to find anything definitive regarding how arrows are supposed to be aligned with the elements to which they point."

    Thank you!

    Melissa

    Thank you for sharing your question, including pictures of the print and your proposed braille! The committee is now discussing it.

    For now, please let me ask: Are tactile arrows a possibility in this transcription?

    In this transcription, tactile arrows are a possibility because we do have graphics for some of the other math that is being transcribed.
