Hi Doug,
Thanks, just getting back to my computer now. I was wondering if that was
the case, for this is the first time playing with the speech engines of WE. As
you will find when doing searches my name comes up a lot under Python Sapi
engines...
So, will spend the rest of the day hooking in the Windoweyes.Application
com object and go from there. I may resort to just the 3 adjustments, Mouse,
Keyboard, and Screen and leave it with that and the person can adjust from
there.Which will conform perfectly since I use F2, F3, and F4 for the 3 Sapi
voice, which can just be the above mentioned...
Thanks,
Bruce

Bruce,
All synthesizers are guaranteed to have 10 pitch values and 10 volume
settings. They are also guaranteed to have 26 tones. However, they may not do
anything...meaning tone x, y and z may all be the same but you are guaranteed
they have an x, y and z.
The only thing that is variable is rate. But even this is per synthesizer,
not engine. If the synthesizer supports say 50 rates than every engine under
it supports 50 rates, guaranteed. You can get the max rates from
Synthesizer.MaxRate.

Hi Aaron and GW,
I talked with Chip and had looked at his class 20 examples prior to him
wrinting back to me and he uses the values found on at least one engine
settings which are the values from 0 to 9 for volume, 0 to 100 for pithch and
the others.
Now, are those values standard for all the engines? If not, what are
the ranges for each engine, or synthesizer, so they all could be built into a
class as Chip had done and we can write an app using all those values as
settings of choice when running an app, such as my Battleship game and other
games and apps I will write?
I can follow what Chip has done, but those things are lacking, missing
in the object model and should be there for app writers to make everything more
flexible.
I will go by what Chip has done for now and post the game with that
appraoch tonight so it will be universal on any computer and not limited to
just Sapi voices, the old way.
