Length of 'text to speech' function

[motorwimtimmerman.eu]

The new 'text to speech' function is great. On a VIA point, you change the Text on the route point in anything you want. Like: the next point gives you a great view on the lake'. Text could be anything but shall not contain numbers. So no 7 but if you want to have it in, make it 'seven'.
However, it does not speak out the whole text I have entered. Probably it is too long.
Is there a restriction on the text length? And if so, how long can e sentence be.

@WimTim, You have the option of the WP name and the WP note. Those are two different things that both get read underway. If you only change the name it will NOT be read if there is a figure in it. It WILL get read of there is a figure in it AND there is a note present. If, like @Hans-van-de-Ven-MRA-Master says, the name can be up to 512 characters, I suppose the note is at least equally long. But hey, if you put that much text in, you will probably miss the next turn (or the text gets interrupted, don't know).

@Con-Hennekens and @WimTim

512 characters is the note. The name is much shorter

@Hans-van-de-Ven-MRA-Master @Con-Hennekens I tried to fill the name of the waypoint. Stopped at 100 charchters... I wonder how long one can go on putting text in that field!

When putting spaces in between you can go as far as 101 characters...

@Rob-Verhoeff But they will not be seen in the app.

As long as you don't go to Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch, that's not that important, is it?

[Rob Verhoeff]

@Nick-Carthew that's right.

Actually it isn’t I have just tested this and the title has rolling text like the note.

[Corjan Meijerink]

@Nick-Carthew Correct! When there is no (scrolling) description / note, the title will be scrolling if required by the length of that text

Check... Indeed the textlenght scrolls by to a max of 101 charchters. I moved the first waypoint before checking. Then your given name is changed back to the original name of the waypoint.

@Rob-Verhoeff I titled RP1 123456789 123456789 123456789

I can’t share the video in the forum so I added it to YouTube: https://youtube.com/shorts/PfBJa6n-x9s?si=rxDl0wAEU_1IQqa8

[Nick Carthew]

@Rob-Verhoeff Here’s the title.

[Rob Verhoeff]

@Nick-Carthew I did it the same way, then it show to a max of 101 characters.

[Nick Carthew]

@Rob-Verhoeff I added 3 sets of 123456789 for the title but looking at my video it appears that only 2 sets are scrolling. There is a large gap after 2 sets.

Thanks... Now I want to hear the navigation voice pronounce that...

[Con Hennekens]

It seems there was not much on TV yesterday evening

But only when you. are in that region of course. Driving via Llangollen and Betws-Y-Coed to the Yr Wyddfa

@Jack-van-Tilburg Using the Wales 360 RouteXpert route is a nice way to pass Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysilio gogogoch
