Voice control for keyboard shortcuts

[Affinity Rat]

I’ve been doing a lot of vector graphics producing large number of layers, changing tools renaming objects switching personas, node tool,  pen tool, re-select, change opacity all takes huge numbers of clicks, sure would be nice to use voice control.

I use quite a number of complex simulators and voice control is fantastic. All keyboard shortcuts can be used and can even concatenate multiple commands issued by saying one word or simple phrase.

Dreamin….

That would be nice, but doesnt seem an option at this time.

I’m dont use Siri, but after quick look it very limited and only does simple canned commands.

That was more a joke, what you means feels capability wise more into the category of tools like Dragon Dictate and the like for performing keystrokes and keyboard commands then.

I use Voice Attack in multiple simulators. Any keyboard command can be controlled, including multi keypress events, right, middle and left mouse clicks can use voice command to move to specific locations on the screen and many other options to allow voice controlled input.

On MacOS (since MacOS Catalina) there are some voice control capabilities build in the OS, where one possibly can also create own voice commands and the like, though I never used or tried that out so far (since I'm more a keyboard man) and thus can't tell if and how accurate that is at all.
