Steps

  • script

    let voices = speech.allVoices.filter(v => v.language == 'en-US')
    
    let p = new Prompt()
    p.title = "Select Voice"
    for (let ix = 0; ix < voices.length; ix++) {
    	p.addButton(voices[ix].name, ix)
    }
    
    if (p.show()) {
    	let v = voices[p.buttonPressed]
    	speech.speak(draft.processTemplate("[[selection]]"), {
    		"voice": v,
    		"rate": "normal",
    		"autoStart": true,
    		"autoClose": true
    	})
