Detailed Description

This code sample demonstrates usage of the TextToSpeech component. On pressing the "Say it" button, the text written into the text field will be read by the app, with the system default age and gender and a set volume and speech rate.

Item {
        TextField {
                id: text
                anchors.centerIn: parent
                text: qsTr("Put Some Text Here")
        }

        Button {
                text:  qsTr ("Say it")
                onClicked: {
                        textToSpeech.say(text.text)
                        console.log(textToSpeech.voice.gender)
                }
        }

        TextToSpeech {
                id: textToSpeech
                volume: 0.7
                rate: 0.3
        }
}
