Hi Jim,
Well, if I'm right, the explanation might be a little hard to follow, so hang in there.
According to the docs, the line in question (RevSetSpeechVoice "Bruce") cannot change voices while speech is already happening in a given session, i.e., if you _were_ changing voices, which it must account for even if you don't.
Therefore, "revSetSpeechVoice" behaves like the beginning of a sequence at every encounter in the current session, meaning it's going to shut off any running speech when it sets the voice. This is "normal" in this case.
Thus, setting the voice _first_ causes the current speech to stop in preparation for the next revSpeak command. After the line executes, there is no more speech, i.e., revIsSpeaking() is FALSE. You can check this in the message box.
Your handler:
on mouseUP revsetspeechVoice "Bruce" ## Kills the speech
if revIsSpeaking() then revstopSpeech ## revIsSpeaking is now FALSE because the first line ## already killed speech.
else revspeak me ## Will always start speaking at the beginning.
end mouseUP
Ken,
Makes eminent good sense! Thank you. I had misunderstood your original message to say that revsetspeechvoice somehow affected the usual logic of the if...then...else control.
