Dear all, I don't understand the rationale for this particular statement, in [1]: " Note that ‘voice-volume’ does not apply to audio cues for which there is a separate means to set loudness (absolute, or relative to ‘voice- volume’). " I totally agree with audio cues [2] adjusting their output levels relatively to the 'voice-volume', but why should they be able to set absolute volume values ? For example, a text with "voice-volume:silent" should have its cues muted as well, yet audio cues can override this. By analogy to the visual 'visibility' property (and by virtue of the "aural box model" [3]), the borders of an invisible element are now shown: the entire element (content, padding, border and margin) remains involved in the layout, but is "transparent" (which is equivalent to "silent" in the aural dimension). If nobody objects, I would like to restrict volume control for audio cues in relative terms only (percentage applicable to the voice-volume value). Sorry if I am missing a point here. Many thanks, Daniel [1] http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-speech/#voice-volume [2] http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-speech/#cue-props [3] http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-speech/#aural-modelReceived on Saturday, 5 February 2011 12:37:43 UTC
