Hi all, Because I reassigned the speakable items key to be F10, I hold this key down and say "what time is it?" The response from the Alex voice on my computer is"It's Tuesday July 31st."
For speakable commands I checked the box so it would tell me what action is performed as a confirmation. For example, I will say send message" at the end of this dictation as I can switch between using dictation and the speakable actions. Holding F10 I will say "send message" and the Alex voice will confirm. hth Sharon On 2012-07-31, at 11:28 AM, Neil Barnfather - TalkNav <for...@talknav.com> wrote: > Can I just ask, are we saying with ML you can ask it what day etc it is, if > so, in what manner…?
