A dynamically linked set of on-screen grids, called an 'environment', can give targeted access to a wide vocabulary, without having to cope with too much at a time. The new wizard in versions 2+ makes this really easy. These grids can be set with automatic scanning for switch users.
You can have as many grids visible at a time - for example leaving a 'menu' always showing as well as the current vocabulary, or having two separate grids for word building.
You can add commands to grid cells for switch users, or to give easy access to commands. Sets of commands (Macros) can be added to cells to give users a lot of support.
