TextAloud Hangs Whenever new Text is Highlighted While Speak
Posted: Thu Mar 05, 2015 5:31 am
This has been a problem for quite a while now and I've been expecting it to be addressed with an update but it doesn't seem to be.
It first started happening after an update but unfortunately I can't remember when it was, other than it being quite a while ago (like years ago).
I mainly use "Paul" from NeoSpeak and have TextAloud "WatchMouse" and perform a "Vocal Proofread" whenever I highlight anything. Whenever Paul is currently speaking if I accidentally highlight more text a second "Vocal Preview" window momentarily flashes open then closes again and TextAloud stops speaking and hangs. I have to kill the program (by right clicking on the launch bar and clicking "Close Window") then re-start TextAloud to use it again. This only happens when I have the action set to "Vocal Proofread", and only happens when Paul is the active voice. With Microsoft Anna a new window opens and starts reading however the old window doesn't close automatically.
Any idea what is causing this issue?
