SpeechInUse() actually tells you only whether or not speech, as
opposed to Braille output, is being used by the JAWS user. It does not
tell you when something is actually being said.

Hi,
The function SpeechInUse() should tell you if jaws is speaking or not.

Subject: [jawsscripts] Speaking a text with a specified voice?
Hi,
Is it possible to create a JAWS script that speaks a text with a specified
installed voice, then after it finishes, switch back to the default voice?
I tried:
SetActiveVoiceProfileByName ("Carmen2")
SayString(sTrText)
SetActiveVoiceProfileByName ("Eloquence")
But nothing is spoken. When the function SetActiveVoiceProfileByName() is
called the second time, it stops immediately the speech.
I have found this by doing:
SetActiveVoiceProfileByName ("Carmen2")
SayString(sTrText)
Delay (50, TRUE )
SetActiveVoiceProfileByName ("Eloquence")
This time the text was spoken as wanted, but I wasn't able to use the
computer for a few seconds after that, because of the Delay() function.
I guess that it is not possible to calculate how much time it would take to
speak a certain text with a specified voice, but isn't possible to detect
somehow when JAWS finished speaking, in order to be able to switch the voice
in that moment?
I also tried using SetSynth ("eloq") but it didn't help either.
Thanks.
