Hi Darrell,

Try adding these functions:

StopSpeech()

 Or

ClearSpeechHistory()

You will need to experiment as to where you put these in your script. Sometimes 
the strategic placement of one of these functions between the speechOff and 
SpeechOn functions will solve the problem. For example, putting one of these 
immediately before the SpeechOn function works well.

Subject: [jawsscripts] How to silence speech during script operations?

Hello again everybody,
 

Thanks thus far for the excellent ideas. It is coming together!

 

My next issue is how to silence speech during script operations.

 

Right now, I have some scripts that work like this:

 

SpeechOff()

;Do a bunch of stuff.

SpeechOn()

 

Sadly, speech remains on during the operations in the middle and a bunch of 
unnecessary junk is spoken.

 

It doesn’t make sense that obviously named functions wouldn’t do their 
jobs. â˜¹

 

Any ideas appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Darrell
