Toggle Voice???

Ok, I know crtl S will turn on voice reading, I know Space bar will pause reading, How do I keyboard short cut Turn off voice reading.

Gotta be something simple I am missing. Thanks all.

Esc Will shut voice reader off, but wont toggle it off and on. And Calibre may not have that function yet. In viewer, what key binding ESC tied to? Maybe if I rebind ESC to something else, I can set my keyboard so I can toggle it easier.

There is no such thing as toggle off and on. You can pause and unpause using the space bar.

Yea, I figured it out. I can toggle it off and on, its just a two key combo I have to use. So Its two single keys side by side.

I found the key board short cut at https://keycombiner.com/collections/calibre/. Found out what the esc key is in the settings, then changed it to something different. In my case, I use the number pad One and Two. Number one Starts the Voice Reader and Number Two shuts it off. Thanks for the reply.
