Length of 'text to speech' function
-
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

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).
I am just an enthusiastic MRA user, and hope you will be one too!

@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 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.
