This has come up a number of times over the years.  As far as I know
There is no way to determine that the synthesizer in use is currently
speaking, or when it is finished.

The SpeechinUse function will return true as long as speech is set to a
synthesizer.

Hi Sina,

The JAWS script function SpeechInUse() seems the most likely
candidate.

Subject: [jawsscripts] How to find out whether jaws is talking

Hi all,

I'm interested in a solution, no matter how wonky it might be at the
beginning, to figure out whether jaws is talking or not.

I'll use a com object, jaws script, separate application which pokes
another
application's object ... whatever.

But is there anyway to figure out when jaws is actually talking?

I suppose this question really should be extended to when jaws is
instructing the synthesizer to talk, but I'll take it at either
the synthesizer or jaws level.

Any ideas at all?


Take care,
Sina
