Here's what I get. Ivona voice sounds great but the NaN's are a bit odd...

So this is using 'normal' TTS. OK. I can't see what the issue is: in the
engine there is no code to speak in onRelease for the button, and the
accessibility properties are set a al the code below, which as far as I
recall, should cover it all:

      this.nextBtn._x = x+w-30;

      this.nextBtn._y = y+h-30;

      this.nextBtn.onRelease = function() {

            this._parent.nextPage();

      };

      this.nextBtn.tabIndex = getTabIndex();

      var col = new Color(this.nextBtn);

      col.setRGB(STYLES.statusTextColour);

      this.nextBtn.onSetFocus = function() {

            speak(engine.languageData.nextButton[0].description);

      };

      this.nextBtn._accProps = new Object();

      this.nextBtn._accProps.name =
engine.languageData.nextButton[0].description;

      Accessibility.updateProperties();

Yes - try it - with TTS on clicking either of those 3 buttons reads out what

sounds like NaN on my system.

Works the same way on your 560 example

I guess it could be an oddity with the Ivona voices I've installed but seems

unlikely.

Not to sound dumb, but you mean they are read out when you click them with

the mouse? 

Do they work ok when you tab to them..?

I didn't think anything was supposed to speak when you clicked...

Hi Julian

most of this does seem to be fixed now which is great but I was at Techdis

yesterday and mentioned that I was impressed how much better it sounds with

a good voice installed and did a quick demo and noticed another small error

- when clicking previous, next, continue "NaN" get read out.

Also I can't remember for sure but didn't tabbing around also used to select

the page title? At the moment when the page loads the page title get's read

but it doesn't get selected when tabbing. Maybe it never did just can't

remember and it would be good if it did.

HTH

Ron

Engine from the svn. It had some dodgy references to the languages xml in

it.
