Hi,
It gives you a different voice context to use for any type of message you
want given in that particular voice context.
For example, here is the script that announces the system time when you hit
Insert+F12...I've added the system date to this same script, and have
changed the voice context to that of the Global voice settings:
Script SaySystemTime ()
SayUsingVoice ( VCTX_MESSAGE, SysGetTime(), ot_string)
SayUsingVoice ( VCTX_Global, SysGetDate(), ot_string)
EndScript
This would announce the system's time in whatever voice characteristics you
have set for the Message voice under the Voice settings in JAWS, then the
system's date in the same voice characteristics you have for the Global
voice settings.
If I remember correctly, the idea of the Message voice addition was to give
off-screen messages in that voice context, so as to let you know it was
off-screen, but I'll have to go back to the docs for that one!
Hope this helps!
