It would be great for the VoiceOver voice to read the gages. If the system voice were to read them, and if gages are scrolling bye real fast, just like with mudding, we won't be able to keep up. This, however, is totaly different than mudding. If we have the VoiceOver voice reading them, we can control when it speaks and when it doesn't.

First of all, everyone should read the User's guide and quickstart guide. These will help you a lot. Second, you need to make sure that "keyboard" is selected under the input menu. I forgot which tab it's on. The keyboard commands are fairly straightforward. However, I can't get VO to read the instrument panel or the HUD display. I was able to take off fine by listening for a certain pitch. However, they have a ways to go. I think they're doing great, and if more people would try this, we could get a group together to work with the developers to work with us on geting VO or the system voice to read the gauges. That's all I think we need. This could be a good game. I may do a podcast on it before too long.Click on the link below to go to our homepage. http://www.icanworkthisthing.com Manage your subscription by using the web interface on the link below. //www.freelists.org/list/macvoiceoverUsers can subscribe to this list by sending email to macvoiceover-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'subscribe' in the Subject field OR by logging into the Web interface at //www.freelists.org/list/macvoiceover
