Pauses At End of Sentences and Strings Not Consistent #5

Closed NoahTCarver closed 1 year ago

NoahTCarver commented 5 years ago

Your driver generally forces pauses consistent with those seen in JAWS for windows, I.E. no pauses between ends of sentences and/or strings. However, in some cases, especially when a sentence ends with a numeral and a period (.), the pause is more pronounced, like the pauses found in the SAPI4 implementations of ETI-Eloquence. Could this pause also be eliminated? Also, could an option be provided in the speech settings dialog and ring that allows a user to choose which pause scheme they prefer, as some users prefer no pauses while others like them?

The extended pauses can also be triggered with a quotation mark followed by a period (".).

Hi. Thanks for your report. I tried it and happends when at the end of a sentence appears two punctuation symbols. E.G. !., ?., etc. I'll try to solve it. Thanks again!

This should be fixed in the latest releases. Shorten pauses matches in more cases, and the shorten pauses setting now fully reverts back to ECI's stock pausing.
