Hello list,

I’m going to guess that this can’t be done, but perhaps a knowledgeable Jaws
user can enlighten me.

I with Jaws would like to be able to have the synthesizer switch between
different voice profiles when navigating between columns either in an Excel
spreadsheet or a table in a Word document. In my case, for language learning
purposes. Similar to a flashcard system. 

Jaws has gotten better over the years with multilingual support, but even
with the most recent update with the CTL+Win-Key+L command, it’s still not
terribly efficient. More so in a circumstance such as this. There are iOS
flashcard apps that do work quite nicely with Voiceover, but I don’t always
want to work off  of my phone.

Can one by any chance mark a region in a spreadsheet or table, be it a
column or row and associate that area to a voice/language profile in jaws
for a more fluid experience. I am studying to obtain federal court certified
Spanish language certification and need to work on terminology and
vocabulary. I guess the same situation could be applied to any learning
circumstance where one wishes to use a flashcard type of format, but anyway…
I’d like to simply be able with the arrow keys go back and forth among the
columns and have Jaws provide me with the proper pronunciation instead of
English or Spanish for both terms.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Cristobal
