It's output, but in a tell block: tell application Voiceover output "my text" end tell or something like that. I have a neat script from Apple that checks to see if vo is even on and has the preference to be controlled by scripts enabled, and defaults to "say" if it is not. On Feb 1, 2013, at 8:

Hi, The say function is the system speech. I believe it is output that should be used to get Voice-Over to talk. A Friend and I found this function flakey. Sean On 01/02/2013, at 11:03 AM, Traci wrote: > Ok, here it is. I added the part of speaking bluetooth on. The toggle works > perfectly

Thank you for this information. :) For now, I have used the beep command, instead of speech. Beep 3, so the toggle beeps 3 times each time I turn bluetooth on/off. I'll tuck this project away though, for future tinkering. Traci 1 step, 2 step, ... 1,311 steps! I can do the BIG CLIMB 2013, with

I see what's going on. I think you'd need a way to see the status of the checkbox; if it is checked, click it and say "bluetooth off", else click it and say "bluetooth on". Here's a link to a forum that discusses checking a box only if it is clicked, but the answer will tell you how to see the b

Yeah, that is the full script. It toggles the bluetooth. I'm using it in conjunction with launch bar. I was wanting to use the system voice, so it would be independent of voiceover. I like to find various ways to do things, in case vo crashes. ;) Any suggestions on how to further the script?

Is that the full script? I don't see anything about turning it off... Also, there's a way to have vo speak text instead of the system voice, so your punctuation, speed, voice, and other settings will be used. Let me know if you're interested. On Jan 31, 2013, at 7:03 PM, Traci wrote: > Ok, her

Ok, here it is. I added the part of speaking bluetooth on. The toggle works perfectly, I'd just like the voice to say on/off. I have a similar script for wiFi, and I got that one to say on/off. tell application "System Preferences" reveal pane id "com.apple.preferences.Bluetooth"

I'd love to see the script, go ahead and paste it. It won't do anything to any mac unless the user copies it and compiles it, so go ahead and toss it in your reply and we'll see what we can make of it. On Jan 31, 2013, at 5:28 PM, Traci wrote: > Hi all, > > I found a toggle bluetooth script on

Hi all, I found a toggle bluetooth script online, and I'm trying to expand it so the mac voice will say the status as I toggle bluetooth on/off. I have it saying bluetooth on, but I can't get it the other way around. For future replies, can I paste the script in a message to you guys? Thanks,
