And I imagine object navigation with NVDA will do the same thing?

Hello Josh,

 

First of, would you mind sending a link to that DECtalk 4.2 speak window,
because I'm quite sure that version doesn't exist as software.

 

Secondly, you can use the touch-cursor in JAWS to use the various buttons in
the speak windows, but I would recoment just entering the appropriate voice
commands to change the parameter you  want,, for example change to Betty by
using the command [:nb ]. The touch-cursor is very useful though, when you
want to play the text you've entered. When you activate the touch-cursor,
and use the right arrow to go through the objects in the window, you will at
some point come across several unlabelled buttons, right after an object,
where JAWS just says speaking rate. The first three buttons are play, pause
and stop, and I think the next nine are for the voices, but I can't remember
which order they're in.

 

Kind regards:

Aksel Christoffersen
