Re: Inappropriate Pauses and Splitting in Chrome

Thank you, Jim That has solved the problem. Somehow, the solution evokes more question. Why the problem happened to a particular computer? I mean the operating system is the same, the browser is the same, the site is the same. And, as I said previously, I even replaced the folders (TextAloud in the ...

Re: Inappropriate Pauses and Splitting in Chrome

Hello, Jim Thank you for the response. I first want to correct some misinformation and assumption. The splitting thing I mentioned, I have observed the same thing also happens with the other computer that does the job just well. 1. The problem is not related to a particular voice, as it happens with...

Inappropriate Pauses and Splitting in Chrome

Please, I need an urgent help that with an issue that I've been battling with since morning without success. The Chrome extension is making some very short pauses at inappropriate places and my reading is not smooth. And because I've chosen to show floating toolbar, I could see TA splitting the text...

Re: TextAloud Version 3.0.102 is available

You echo my thought exactly, Quantum. I also agree with you absolutely about the OCR feature. It's just that I don't want to call names of the competing application but NaturalReader have done well by thinking along that direction. That is very intuitive of them. I must however, add that TA is way b...

THE MOST IMPORTANT MISSING FEATURE IN TEXTALOUD

Hello, There is no doubt that TA is one of the best text to audio converters, especially armed with regular expression. But despite my love for the application, I find myself having less need for it. And I recently tumbled on another application that I have discarded long ago, but only to realize th...

SUGGESTIONS AND ISSUES RELATED TO REGEX

Hello, everyone I have some issues and suggestions for TA: SUGGESTIONS 1. There should be a feature for showing the particular regex or any tweak acting on a text when a mouse is hovered over it. For example, if I create a regex to skip "come", I suggest that there should be a feature to s...

Re: SOME REGULAR EXPRESSION PROBLEMS

Oh! thank you PHenry as always. Although, I haven't tried what u sent to me yet, I feel it better to respond to your question.

Thank you Phenry, for the kind response I strongly think the solution you provided in the link works just fine as acknowledged by the enquirer.

PROBLEM WITH HEADINGS

1. I have tried to make my TA to read the headings of my articles with a different voice other than the one reading the whole article, that I succeeded. However, there are certain things I didn't quite understand until now. I initially thought TA recognizes headings by the absence of 'full stop' but...

NEW FEATURE: Selecting multiple texts at different location

There are a lot times when you only want to listen to certain part of a documents, and not the whole of it. If it were to be one place only, that would have been easy by simply highlighting the text and make TA to speak the selected text. However, that becomes problematic when you want to read multi...
