I have a one field one card stack with three sentences of text. I want
to highlight each sentence (well ideally each word as it is read but
that I am leaving for right now) as it is read. What I have written
works fine on the Mac using the Player for Mac. It doesn't play on the
Windows player. In an earlier incarnation of this stack I was just
selecting the text to be read. That version read the text aloud in
Windows but it didn't select any of the text except the last sentence.
Now when I am trying to set the foregroundColor of the text to be read
the Windows player not only doesn't set the color, it doesn't even read
the text.
Is there a good reference for how to write for the Windows player, i.e.
what works and what doesn't?
on mouseUp
put fld "maintext" into theText
set the itemDelimiter to "."
repeat with k = 1 to the number of items in theText
put item k of theText into theSentence
set the foregroundColor of item k of fld "maintext" to blue
try
revspeak theSentence
catch theError
beep
end try
wait until revIsSpeaking() is false
set foregroundColor of item k of fld "maintext" to black
end repeat
set the itemDelimiter to ","
end mouseUp
Iden,
Maybe the traversalon of the button is true. On windows that will steal
focus from the field when the button is clicked, as buttons can get
focus on Windows but not on Mac. Which might cause what you describe.
If so, try setting the traversalon property of the button to false.
