[TalkBack] Add speech quick settings to global context menu #223

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Talkback really needs separate voice settings from Android. Use cases for this 
might include having a quick voice like Espeak for screen reading, and 
something slower but more natural like Ivona for apps like book readers. It 
also needs separate controls for rate and pitch. Spiel implements all of these 
functions, with the rate and pitch settings being set by factors of the current 
system setting. This would also allow quickly switching languages through the 
global contecst menu, something that has been requested by many people on the 
eyes-free group.

Summary of requested features:
- Switch between available engines, voices/languages
- Quickly set default prosody (pitch, rate, etc.)

I think there should be the ability to have a separate tts engine or voice for 
screen reading and another for ebooks, for example.
