Time Zone
Ok, I give up. I keep returning to the clock menu to try to change my time zone, and I keep failing to figure out how. It seems to be an image of the world that VO can't deal with, so I'm stumped as to how to find my time zone. What setting am I missing?

time zone
Hey Eliza, I had to get my son to change the time zone as I couldn't find a way with VO to change it so if you have one of those kind sighted animals get them to fix it up for you unless someone has a way that I couldn't find to change it.

Re: Time Zone
Hi Eliza, Try this: In the Date and Time panel in System Prefs, select the second tab named Timezone. Navigate using VO until you hear "Closest city:" and write your city in the combo box to the right. When I write Oslo, the rest is automatically, and I can simply leave the panel. Hope this helps, John André in NOrway ;-) On 7. mars. 2009, at 11.05, Eliza Cooper wrote: > > Ok, I give up.

Re: Time Zone
I did try that, but because the wrong time zone is selected, when I type in my city, it doesn't come up. What a trivial but annoying quirk this is.

Re: Time Zone
Hi, Ok, have you tried to first select all (command-A) in the combo box, then write the same wrong city, and then do the same and write your own city? Just a suggestion, command-A can be a better solution than using the delete key in such cases.

Re: time zone
Dean and Eliza, you sure can change the timezone with VO. Simply type a city in your timezone in the edit field and there you go. If the one you typed in isn't recognized, then go for another one closest you. Once you have one showing up in the edit field simply click close to close the window or do a command w and that's it!… Smiles, Cara :) --- View my Online Portfolio at: http://www.onemodelplace.com/CaraQuinn On Mar 7, 2009, at 2:11 AM, Dean Adams wrote: Hey Eliza, I had to get my son to change the time zone as I couldn't find a way with VO to change it so if you have one of those kind sighted animals get them to fix it up for you unless someone has a way that I couldn't find to change it.

Re: time zone
Just to reiterate, any city in your time zone will work. I just verified this by typing in New York City to switch to EST and then switching back to my beloved LA LA Land!and it switched back to PST immediately.

I can see too ways 1 make it natively show up in the voiceover voice selection or 2 make a hack around it.

Re: time zone
You're talking about the combo box, right? I don't see an edit field. When you type in the city, what exactly happens? It has me on New Delhi time right now and won't switch. It showed New York City (which is what I want) a couple of times, in which case I was placed in a table that I could not get out of, and I could not select the name of the city. I must be missing a step. Eliza On Mar 7, 2009, at 4:06 PM, Cara Quinn wrote: > Just to reiterate, any city in your time zone will work.

Re: time zone
Oh, you know what, I got it to work finally. I thought I'd have to select an ok button of some sort, so didn't think my changes would hold if I just closed the window, but they do.

Re: espeak on mac?
Greg agree. But my main problem so far have been to find out where the voices are selected. I dont doubt i will find a way to make it work If ivox voices can be added so can espeak:) of course we would have too live with the 370 words pr minute rule or so i think but that ought too be fast enough for a start at least.

Re: espeak on mac?
We looked into it at Curtin but had to stop do to other issue here. We did not get very far. The basic process is to make a sysnsisier for each vendor of voices. There is sample code for doing this in the developer tools that come with the mac.

Re: espeak on mac?
i am not sure of this ... But i believe that there is a festival thingy for mac, i looked in to it when i made mac and flightgear work together. One reason i dropped it was " it piled up quite fastly . and was not disireable for what i needed it for . henze why i used speak. That however was a sitetrack back too the topic. If we can make speak work on mac we might be able too make some of the mbrolla voices work as well.

Re: espeak on mac?
Hello, Remember that in Mac OS X, there is a folder at /System/Library/Speech that contains both synths and voices. You have to develop a synth plugin, then place the voices in the same location. I've not seen docs on how this is set up at this point, so I think it would be quite a challenge to get something like flight or espeak working.

Perhaps I may have overlooked this feature, but exactly what is sSpeak, and does one have to reinsert the installation CD if they want to get it?

Re: espeak on mac?
hi. Alex how about you just tell us all what you have done instead of all that closeness? sounds like a better approach:) espeak is another open speech which you can sortta use with mac as it is. When i say like i do it's cause... you can use it with irc like tail-f -n1 filename|speak -s 300 and your irc-client speaks. It works okay for both irssi and xchat. so i was wanting too use it as we use fred alex and so on. To ryan: for 6 month ago you could not use flightgear as a blind person you can today. Nothing is impossible the impossible things just takes more time:) /sandi now On Mar 7, 2009, at 12:32 PM, Alex Jurgensen wrote: > > Hi, > > I figured out what needs to be done.

RE: latest spam
Listers, please don't reply to this on the list. I'm sending this here now so that you and everyone else knows now that I've not only already taken care of this, but that I'll be changing settings in the background to hopefully prevent this sort of thing from happening again. As well, I've reported the spammer to Google. so, please, in future, if you have suggestions / thoughts for me, in regard to the list operation / policy and such, please please please email me off-list. My job as a mod here is to make things happen behind the scenes so to speak, so be aware that you're not always going to know when I've taken care of something like this. , and by replying to this note on-list, without trimming it, (as I've done below) you're actually proliferating this spam as well, because rather than making it stop, it's showing up again with your post as well. Know what I mean? So please bare this in mind. This matter is in-hand, and as I said, you can feel free to write me off-list at any time if you feel something isn't being dealt with the way you'd like, K?… Thanks for reading, All, and my apologies for the spam. There was no way to know about this one in advance, and as I said, measures are already being taken. Have a terrific weekend!… Smiles, Cara :) --- View my Online Portfolio at: http://www.onemodelplace.com/CaraQuinn On Mar 7, 2009, at 10:48 AM, Justin Harford wrote: Umm, MODERATOR!

Vague posts -was- Re: espeak on mac?
Alex, I've said this before, these one-liners clutter the list much more than any content you'd post. So, what I'm saying here, to be clear, is rather than post a one line note about what you're doing or planning to do without either including any content or asking outright for specific assistance, do either say in real terms what you're doing, by showing the list some actual content, or pose a clear request either to the list for specific assistance with what you're doing. Otherwise you're simply using bandwidth without contributing. I'm saying this to be clear, as I'd really like to see this behavior change without my having to come up with some ridiculous list rule about such, K?… So this is just a friendly reminder not only to you, but to the list as a whole, to please have some consideration for other listers. Said simply, don't post unless you have something helpful / useful to share with everyone. If we all do this then the list will really run smoothly and we won't accidentally be stepping on eachother's toes. - Make sense?… Thanks for taking time to read, and I wish you all a lovely weekend!… Smiles, Cara :) --- View my Online Portfolio at: http://www.onemodelplace.com/CaraQuinn On Mar 7, 2009, at 3:10 PM, Alex Jurgensen wrote: Hi, It isn't closeness, just unclutterness of the list.

vo curser jumping, cut within finder, and selecting multiple items
Hello, I have a cuple questions. First, I notice that when I am in some applications, My VoiceOver curser jumps to controls against my will so to speak. Example: Tube- tv, the progress window, While looking at the progress of a download, The vo cursor jumps to the cancel button. How can I prevent this? Second, Why can I copy files in finder, command+c, but not cut them command+x. As it stands, I have to copy my file(s), which takes longer than just moving them, then go back and delete them. Alternatively, I go to terminal and use mv. Suggestions? Last question, this one is easier. How do I select multiple items, in finder for example, that are not next to eachother? For example, in a, b, c, d, e, How do I select b, d, e? Thank you for your assistance.

Re: vo curser jumping, cut within finder, and selecting multiple items
2. There is no "move" function as far as I know. Someone made an automator action to simulate this. Apple tends to remove functionality found elsewhere (a "stop" button in iTunes for instance). 3. I forget the command, but I have it reassigned to numpad 5 in the VO utility. It's called "begin/end selection" or something. Try that when interacting w/ VO cursor; start selecting, highlight one thing, stop, move to next w/vo (probably without cursor tracking on) and start and stop when you please.

Re: espeak on mac?
Hi, I am writing this now in full, smiley, after Cara got on my case about it. I was in a rush earlier. I appologize. Here are the details. ISpeak, a project to port the eSpeak speech engine natively to the Mac is kicking off this month. Hosted by VIPBC.org, the project will allow the eSpeak voices to be used in all speech enabled applications including Voiceover. All people who are interested in participating are asked to keep an eye on http://www.vipbc.org/ . Below is a list of possible jobs that need filling. Jobs: - Perl programmer - OBJ-C programmer - Packager/Installer creator - Documentationalist - Issue Tracker Such positions are open for most open-source AWEBSIGHT/ICE VIPBC.org projects.
