Working With Sounds.

This brief section of the documentation will discuss the Leasey Sounds Scheme.

Why are Sounds Used?

There are a number of events which occur that are specific to Leasey. These are events such as when a web page has completed loading and is ready for use, when you begin and end the selecting of text, to denote the use of LeaseyPoints and LeaseyClips, to name but a few items. The use of all of these tools will be discussed in later sections of this document. But in essence, switching to the Leasey Sound Scheme will ensure you can work faster, particularly with tools such as LeaseyClips. The sound earcons are quicker to hear and interpret rather than a long block of speech being spoken.

By default Leasey events are announced through speech by the software, but there are two other options available to you. You can elect to have Sounds alone played, have Leasey only announce events, or have both. Sounds with speech is a very good way to learn what the various Sounds mean. The setting for Leasey Sounds can be found and manipulated by pressing the Leasey Key followed by letter "O". Each time you press this keystroke, you will rotate between the three available options: Sounds Off, Sounds On and Sounds with Speech. Back to Help Index.
