RE: Adjusting the Speaking Rate of VoiceOver
Yes, it takes a bit of getting used to, I think the trick is a short quick flick with your finger. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Mac Sent: 09 July 2014 03:24 To: Vi Phone Subject: Re: Adjusting the Speaking Rate of VoiceOver Hey Flor, It kind of a flicking motion that you use. If you flick up kind of like your snapping your fingers and flick down the same way you should be able to control the rate. Don't get frustrated it took me a while to to get used to it.

Re: Adjusting the Speaking Rate of VoiceOver
Hi, When I was new to voice over, I wanted the speaking rate in the rotor. As I got use to it, I found I didn't use that control and so I took it back out. That's the nice thing about the rotor, you control what you want it to control. Regards, Alan I told my psychiatrist that everyone hates me. He said I was being ridiculous - everyone hasn't met me yet.

Re: Adjusting the Speaking Rate of VoiceOver
I think you can have the lot if you want but there are 2 rotors. There is a language rotor where you can add other voices like the British voice so your iPhone reads with a male British voice or if you speak another language let's say French for example, you can have that voice.

Re: Adjusting the Speaking Rate of VoiceOver
And the below question was sent on tuesday the 8th at 19.36 BST. It was answered on another list,long before it even arrived here. - Original Message - From: Flor Lynch florl...@iol.ie To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, July 08, 2014 7:36 PM Subject: Adjusting the Speaking Rate of VoiceOver Hi, This should be a straightforward thing. How do I adjust the Speech Rate of VoiceOver? If I do it in Settings | General | Accessibility | Voiceover, by double-tapping on Speaking Rate, Adjustable, and then swipe up or down with one finger to adjust the value, all that happens then is that I run into the other VoiceOver settings for Sound Effects, Braille, this and that, but I can only slightly adjust the speech rate. (At the moment I am hovering at about 51%. I'd like to adjust that downward eventually to maybe about 11%.) Am using iOS7.1.2 or the latest iOS update on iPhone 5S. I mostly use braille, but needed to see if I could help a situation where braille reading/scrolling was a bit too slow in a particular newspaper app.) TIA for assistance. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

Re: Adjusting the Speaking Rate of VoiceOver
Thanks to you and to Alex. This rotor is something I've yet to experiment with, how you can apparently add things to it - customize your VO experience, as it were. . Sounds handy too. - Original Message - From: isaac To: viphone@googlegroups.com Cc: Isaac Hebert Sent: Tuesday, July 08, 2014 7:49 PM Subject: Re: Adjusting the Speaking Rate of VoiceOver You can also switch the rotor to speech and swipe down to slow down the rate and swipe up to speed it up. isaac isaac.heb...@gmail.com Skype gold_wildcat On Jul 8, 2014, at 1:43 PM, Alex Hall mehg...@icloud.com wrote: You are in the right place, but find that adjustable item and simply swipe up or down. That is, don't double tap on it first, just move to it and swipe. It should adjust in five percent increments. Also be sure that the up/down swipe is fast enough; it sounds like you may be moving your finger too slowly, and having the gesture interpreted as simply moving your finger on the screen. The up/down flick should be as fast as a left/right flick. On Jul 8, 2014, at 2:36 PM, Flor Lynch florl...@iol.ie wrote: Hi, This should be a straightforward thing.

Re: Adjusting the Speaking Rate of VoiceOver
Well, looking at the timestamps on these messages it looks like the delivery of messages here is somewhat delayed, possibly due to the volume of messages on the list. Not sure at all, though, why nmessages i sent on Saturday should only have been delivered on list this evening of the 8th July. A similar thing happened the previous weekend. I run a googlegroup myself, and the message delivery there is as quick as it should be. Apologies for venting about the problem! - Original Message - From: Flor Lynch florl...@iol.ie To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, July 08, 2014 8:21 PM Subject: Re: Adjusting the Speaking Rate of VoiceOver And the below question was sent on tuesday the 8th at 19.36 BST.

Re: Adjusting the Speaking Rate of VoiceOver
Hey Flor, It kind of a flicking motion that you use. If you flick up kind of like your snapping your fingers and flick down the same way you should be able to control the rate. Don't get frustrated it took me a while to to get used to it. On Jul 8, 2014, at 12:36 PM, Flor Lynch florl...@iol.ie wrote: Hi, This should be a straightforward thing.
