Hi Ricardo,
What I meant to say and said it very badly, is, that I don't think that it is a
problem, but, is a normal function of Voiceover. I did not mean to say that it
should not be discussed here, but, that I don't believe that it is a problem,
as a matter of fact, it may be helpful. Maybe I have explained my comments a
little better.
