Transferring Settings & Dictionaries To New Computer

I don't think there's an easy way to do this, so what's the most efficient and effective process to transfer my settings and dictionaries to a new computer?

Re: Custom shortcuts no longer possible?

I did exactly as you suggested, and never got a popup menu in which I could enter a value of 10. That was hitting the pause option at the very top of the insert list. However, I then tried the following: Insert Tags > Prompt for Pause Tag > "ctrl-t" > ok Then I closed that window and retur...

Re: Custom shortcuts no longer possible?

It sounds like you're referring to keyboard shortcuts, configured using Shortcut Setup under the Tools menu. Correct. I used to have two shortcuts to insert pause tags. One inserted {{Pause=2}}, and the other {{Pause=10}}. (The first had been ctrl-b, and the other ctrl-t.) After my original inquiry...

Custom shortcuts no longer possible?

Before my most recent update, I had a couple custom shortcuts to insert pause tags of specific lengths.

After the update, these shortcuts are gone and I can't see any way to recreate them.

Am I missing something? I hope I am because that was a feature I used constantly.

TextAloud for Android

I read on this board that TextAloud for Android was on the list of things the developers were looking at for future development. Well, I'm a dedicated TextAloud user on my PC, but I'm also an Android user. I desperately want TextAloud on Android. How desperate? I really want an Android tablet. (I ha...

Re: Clipboard monitor inserting carriage returns.

I'm wondering if the CR/LF that's included now in the append was interacting with a pronunciation dictionary regular expression. I cleaned out a handful last night, and I haven't seen the glitch since then. That said, I updated the program to the latest a while ago, and this glitch didn't appear unt...

Clipboard monitor inserting carriage returns.

I don't recall changing anything, but all of a sudden -- just as of today -- the clipboard monitor has begun inserting CR+LF [CR (U+000D) followed by LF (U+000A)] at the beginning of all copied text. (At least I think that's what's happening.) This is a problem because now Textaloud skips the first ...

Thanks! That should hopefully get me most of the distance.

Transfering Old Settings To A New Computer

I'm upgrading to a new computer. But I've got TextAloud set up exactly as I want it on my old computer. I know how to back up my dictionaries and transfer them. But there are a lot of other things too. Is there any way I can transfer the old settings to the new computer? Or will I have to sit down a...

Re: Regex to pronounce words like [T]he or [w]hen correctly?

Thank you so much!

I'm going to have to sit down and figure out exactly how and why that works.

But initial testing says it does, indeed, work. I'll let you know if I run into any problems or need any further help understanding it.

Regex to pronounce words like [T]he or [w]hen correctly?

I've been trying to come up with regex that will identify words with bracket first letters and pronounce them correctly. I find this often in cases where people are capitalizing the first letter of quoted material. Examples: [T]oday, [Y]esterday, lue, [g]reen Is there a way for Textaloud to identify...

Speed Glitch: 0 is faster than 1, indeed 0 = 3

I actually noticed this with the last few updates of version 2 (can't say exactly when it appeared). I figured it would be corrected in version 3. But it's not, so here's my report. Voices tested: AT&T Mike and Crystal Glitch: A speed setting of 0 is faster than a speed setting of 1. In fact, it...
