Brian,Wow! I never noticed that quirk in TypeAbility for MAGic, where speech rate in list boxes changes to your default speech rate. These would bew the list boxes invoked with F3, F4, F6, F7, and Control U. I frankly don't have a clue why that's happening. My default JAWS speech rate is not that different from TypeAbility's fastest speech rate, so I missed this anomaly.
Interestingly, the edit boxes don't exhibit that behaviour. Speech rate continues to be controlled by the TypeAbility scripts. These edit boxes are the TypeYour Name box, and the Type or Paste your Own dictation edit box invoked with F8.
I'll look into this. David----- Original Message ----- From: "Brian Hartgen" <Brian.Hartgen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi When I use TypeAbility with MAGic, and invoke one of the lists such as with F3 or F4, the speech rate changes to my default rate which is very fast. When I use TypeAbility with jaws, the speech rate is at 73 words per minute which is the fastest TypeAbility can speak. I just wondered why that is?
