Firstly none of the boxes with number values that change when you press

present.
Ofcourse, we didnt change anything for that. But i am investigating the
Problem.
However as requested I pressed spacebar on the combo boxes and once they
had expanded jaws is able to read items as they change. I actually didn't
know that spacebar expanded combo boxes.
However I think that the issue where combo box values are not read unless
space is pressed on the box first should be fixed because I think a lot
of people will just assume they can go up and down in the box without
pressing space on it first.
Also, once you have pressed space on a box and its items are being read
by jaws, once you have found the item you are looking for you then can't
do anything. As pressing tab will not move you out of the box, and if you
press escape your selection is cancelled and you are back at square one
Yes, surely the voicing of the comboboxes should be fixed. I was just
asking you to try this, so i get a better chance to find the problem.
Also if you expand a combobox with "space", use "enter" to select the
value :-)
I will give that a try and let you know if it works.
Also, spacebar on the combo boxes to expand them and get them read does
not work on that one who's value is not read when it is changed even when
you tab out of and back into it. The box I am talking about is the one
next to the language selection box if you press tab once you are on it.
Pressing spacebar on it doesn't seem to expand it and its values are not
read if you change them. In fact you are given no indication of any
changes when you press up or down arrow.
I think, that you are in the Sapi Configuration dialog and the box which
doesnt speak, is the Voice selection. And this Box is empty, because of
the bug bluebrother mentioned earlier. And if its Empty, it is ofcourse
correct to not speak anything.
But are the Titles for this Boxes correctly spoken ?
Do you mean the titles for the combo boxes? if so, no none of the titles for
combo boxes are spoken.
Under encoder settings as well as the boxes with number values not being
read when they are changed, there is also a check box who's title is not
announced, to find it move to the box who's default value is set at ten
and press tab once, you are then on the box who's title isn't being
announced.
But the titles of the other boxes are readout ?
Yes that's right, they appear to be read out correctly. Both the title on
the check box for use sapi four and narrow band check box are read out.
Also keep in mind, that the configuration dialog for TTS and Encoders
change depending on which TTS/Encoder you selected.
I see, I did not realise this.
To you other mails:
- The main menu contains both the manual and the info tab. But they are
probably not very interesting for blind users. (Its the last two tabs,
after the Uninstallation tab)
When you say menu do you actually mean the menu bar with options such as
accessibility and extras etc. In my mind I think of the menu bar as being
separate from the tabs, but allowing you to do the same as you can normally
on them.
- Yes the voice generation in rbutil surely can be improved, as there are
still missing features if you compare against the buildsystem. (POOL
support for reusing clips, and voicestring correction for example)
But as always we dont have enough time todo all we want :-)
Lol yes never enough time in the day.
Speaking of the build system and pool support, can you please tell me the
exact syntax I need to use to get it working? as I am sure I am putting in
the right commands, but cygwin doesn't seem to be using them, and is not
placing the voice clips where I tell it.
I would like to store the voice clips in a folder called voice located
inside my build dir.
If you could please tell me the exact command I should put into cygwin to do
this I would appreciate it.
Does cygwin need to have any particular packages or versions of packages
installed for pool support to work? as I guess either I am doing something
wrong or something isn't working properly with cygwin.
I checked the entry on voice in the wiki, but couldn't see any information
about pool support, I will edit the entry to include information on pool
support if you can tell me how to get it working correctly. As I guess a lot
of cygwin users might want to reuse voice clips.
