When selecting text, the various options for distinguishing capital letters don't apply #4874

Reported by leonarddr on 2015-02-02 10:37 When selecting text (shift+left/right arrow) and capital pitch change is enabled, the pitch of capitals doesn't change as expected. Instead, the voice reads capitals in normal pitch. Blocked by #4661, #4877

Comment 1 by leonarddr on 2015-02-02 11:32 This is probably related to #4661 (current implementation of speaking selections). I noticed that beep for capitals and say cap before capitals don't work either. May be one ticket should be created for improving the meganism for speaking selections? Changes: Changed title from "Kapital pitch changing not applied when selecting text" to "When selecting text, the various options for distinguishing capital letters don't apply"

Comment 2 by jteh on 2015-02-03 00:31 This depends on #4661, but this one is a bit harder because spelling of characters (which is how a single character is spoken) uses different code. The spelling code is asynchronous, so it will always speak after any non-spelled text, which is particularly problematic for #1707.

I have plans to significantly refactor our speech code over the next few months which should allow for this among other things.

Hopefully this will be a part of #4877 as well.
