Hi Kamil,
Yes, we have confirmed this with several experiments that span JAWS 7
through 10. The SpeechInUse function only returns false if the synthisizer
is turned off. Setting synthisizer to none or using SpeechOFF will cause
this result.
If anyone out there knows of a function that will actually let us know if
the synthesizer is speaking, we would really like to know about it.
Regards,
James

Subject: [jawsscripts] Confused with SpeechInUse function
Hi All,
I'm confused with the way SpeechInUse () behaves or rather misbehaves.
What I experience is that, it acts like the inverted version of IsSpeechOff
() function.
I expect it to return FALSE, when the synthisizer is silent, regardless of
being ON or OFF.
I tried the following piece of code, and it only gets out of the loop, if I
press a key.
Could you verify this observation please.
Many thanks in advance,
Kamil
Script SayAndWait ()
SayString ("I wish, I could be wrong sometimes.")
While SpeechInUse () && Not IsKeyWaiting ()
Pause ()
EndWhile
SayString ("Finished")
EndScript
