Text to speech audio within a marker.
Hello LeslieWilbourne,
Happy to help!
The Text-to-Speech option that's available in the "MARKER TOOLS (FORMAT) -> Audio" option is only for inserting Text-to-Speech. This is why you always see a blank input box whenever you select it. Typically, you need to right-click on a Text-to-Speech audio file in the timeline and select the "Text-to-Speech" option to edit the text, but this isn't available for marker audio since the audio doesn't get added, and therefore doesn't appear in the timeline. I recommend placing the text in the notes section (if you don't use it) or in an external text file if you find yourself frequently making changes to the Text-to-Speech script.
I'll let our product team know that you'd like an easier option to edit the script in future releases!

Thanks so much for the reply. Appreciate it. Will use your Notes option.
