Balabolka is a feature-rich program to read text aloud from a variety of file types including DOC, RTF, PDF, ODT, FB2 and HTML. The program uses Microsoft's own Speech API 4 and 5, but lets you fine tune various voice parameters, including rate and pitch, and a substitution list can also be applied to improve the quality of the voice's articulation. The program supports customized font and background color, skins, control reading from the system tray or by the global hotkeys.

Balabolka can also save the synchronized text to external LRC files or in MP3 tags inside the audio files. When the audio file is played with players on a computer or on modern digital audio players, the text will be displayed synchronously (in the same way as lyrics for songs).

Also includes batch conversion tools from of a wide variety of document formats to audio or plain text and a file compare tool, file splitter, and screen magnification window.

OneLoupe wird benötigt, um alles, was auf dem Bildschirm angezeigt wird, beliebig zu vergrößern und gegebenenfalls auch festzuhalten, um es nachträglich unter die Lupe zu nehmen.

Einfach und leicht zu bedienen, der kleine Vergrößerer ist immer griffbereit, wenn Sie ihn brauchen, um alle Details, ja sogar das Kleingedruckte im I-Net zu entziffern. Sicher, es gibt viele kleine Tools, aber OneLoupe ist sehr praxisorientiert und ebenso benutzerfreundlich. Zumal es mit der Programmgröße auch noch Punkten kann und es stellt so gut wie keine Belastung für das System dar, es muss nicht einmal installiert werden. Einmal am Desktop platziert ist es immer griff- und einsatzbereit.

Changelog

    Updated Russian language file.
    File format of screenshots taken by the 'Capture Desktop' internal command can now be set as either JPG or PNG.
    Filled histogram colors used for the CPU, Net and RAM Meter icon modules are now a bit transparent so the background of the icon can still be seen.
    URLs dragged from all browsers should now use the web page title for the item's label instead of the actual URL domain address.
    Added new 'Overlap information on battery icon' option to the battery module, enabled by default. Controls whether the AC Power symbol, charge percentage and battery runtime values are drawn on top of the battery icon or next to it. This allows using customized multi-state battery images that wouldn't look good with battery information overlapping the battery image.
    The 'Most Active Programs', 'Power Events Log' and 'Battery Information' dialogs now show a button on the taskbar.
    Since it's global, also added the 'Do not launch multiple sessions of the same application' setting to the More Options dialog in the General tab of Preferences. Also renamed the dialog from 'Advanced Settings' to 'More Options' for consistency with the button that invokes it.
    The Animation Speed slider in a dock Auto-Hide Settings dialog is now disabled if the auto-hide animation is set to No Animation.
    Added new 'Auto Backup Settings' internal command. Intended to be used with the built-in Alarm Manager to make automatic scheduled backups, it makes a backup of the application's settings without prompting the user for a filename. It creates the filename based on the current date and time and stores the backup in the last used backup folder (or C:\Users\Public\Documents\WinStep\Backup\ by default). It also notifies NextSTART (if it's currently running) to make an automatic backup at the same time.
    The battery in the Battery Information dialog now displays the style and settings currently selected by the user and glows with the dominant color of the battery image.
    The 'Colorize low and critical battery states' battery module setting now also properly colorizes customized multi-state battery images.
    Added new alternative 'Hue Shift' colorization method which allows color information to be preserved and whites to remain white.
    Iconic (not skinned) desktop modules are no longer colorized.
    Changed the Hue shift colorization algorithm to one that is more accurate than Microsoft's solution. This can affect colorization of the Battery Monitor and Wanda fish modules.
    The 'Edge Swipe Settings' buttons in the Behavior tab of the Shelf and Dock Properties panels are now grayed out if the user is using edge bumps instead of edge swipes to activate the dock/Shelf.
    A theme validation is now performed when Restoring settings from a previous backup, so the user doesn't end up with a blank theme if the theme used at the time of the backup no longer exists.
    Added 'Most Active Programs' button to the CPU module settings dialog, to make this feature more visible.
    The Colorize settings are now also directly available in the Themes tab by sliding the UI with the arrow. This allows quick preview of colorization changes without having to constantly open and close the Colorization Settings dialog.
    The Winstep Update Manager now uses the currently selected settings when you click the 'Check for Updates' button in the Advanced tab of Preferences.
    Increased the interpolation quality used to render dock backgrounds.
    The 'Minimize to dock' and 'Combine dock icons with running applications' settings are now only available when 'Show running applications in this dock' is selected.
    Improved the color hot-track algorithm so it also takes into account the average background color when it can't calculate a proper dominant color.
    A black or gray scale tint color now grayscales the bitmap for both the Tint and Hue shift colorizing modes.
    Context menus are now also colorized.
    Tweaked the vertical position of the text in the Shelf tabs when running under high-DPI settings.
    Added a new 'Colorize text' option to the Color Settings, enabled by default. Text can now be optionally colorized as well. Disabling this option allows the user to colorize a theme but still be able to tweak text colors manually via the theme 'Fonts' dialog.
    If Theme Integration is on, colorizing a theme in WorkShelf will now also colorize the theme in NextSTART and vice-versa.
    Adjusted the disposition of the objects in the preview of the Themes tab to better accomodate high DPI displays.
    Replaced the Shelf and dock images used in the Docks & Shelves tab in Preferences so they can scale up properly on high DPI displays.
    Added 'Flip Dock Background' option to the Appearence sub-menu of the dock's right-click context menu. Equivalent to toggling the 'Do not flip background for docks at the top of the screen' setting but with immediate effect.
    Added 'Show Container' and 'Browse Container' options to the right-click context menu of the 'Restore Wallpaper' internal command. Allows you to open or browse the folder where the Windows wallpaper is stored.
    Fixed malformed request to GeoIP location server that caused GeoIP location to stop working for a week after 2016/03/17.
    The 'Lookup IP address' internal command would fail if the GeoIP information was not already in the cache.
    The dock could crop the number of visible tray icons in grouped mode when changing the icon size of the dock.
    Pseudo-3D dock backgrounds like the Leopard theme no longer appear heavilly distorted at certain icon/icon reflection sizes.
    The 'Capture Desktop Settings' dialog, when invoked from a right click context menu, was not saving the settings to the proper location.
    The Shelf could auto-hide while a item delete confirmation dialog was still on screen if the user moved the mouse pointer over the Shelf.
    If the auto-hide delay was too short, the Shelf could auto-hide while it was still performing unrelated animations such as shifting icons after deleting an item, etc...
    Synchronization of the system clock with the Internet Time Servers failed if the regional settings for the SYSTEM account (used by the Winstep Helper Service) used a difference decimal point character than the user account under which the application run (e.g.; "123,4" instead of "123.4" or vice-versa).
    Some routines were still using bilinear instead of bicubic transformations for rescaling bitmaps, which caused the bitmaps to look blurrier than they should.
    WorkShelf would crash if a dock was set to auto-hide when selecting a new theme in the Dock Properties dialog and the user clicked outside the Dock Properties window (which would cause the dock to hide) and then on the themes list.
    Certain dock backgrounds could cause visual glitches when mousing over near the position of a dock that was hidden into a screen edge.
    A dock set to hide/collapse automatically after launching an application (or a sub-dock set to close automatically after launching an application) would fail to do so if the item being launched required admin privileges (i.e.; UAC prompt).
    Always on top docks set to auto-hide for maximized applications will now only do so if they are not reserving screen space (maximized applications would not be overlapped by the dock in this case) and will only auto-hide for full screen applications.
    The preview of the Destop Module Battery Monitor on the Modules tab of Preferences would show a disabled battery if the battery module was not currently in use.
    Fixed some Shelf tab width issues that could occur if the tab font size was too large to fit.
    Drag & Drop of URLs was not working with certain browsers (e.g.; Waterfox) that did not supply the ANSI UniformResourceLocator format. ANSI and Unicode formats are now correctly accepted.
    Changing units of the weather module from C to F or vice-versa only became effective after the cached weather information became stale and the weather information was refreshed.
    Sub-dock indicators were overlapping other icons and causing visual glitches if the icon spacing was less than 8 pixels.
    The 'Popup delay' slider in the Activation Settings dialog of the Dock Properties Behavior tab appeared enabled even if 'Bring dock forward on mouseover' was not selected.
    With very short auto-hide delays, or under certain circunstances when a dock was set to auto-hide for maximized applications, a dock could auto-hide in the middle of a resize/move animation, which would cause it to glitch.
    Clicking an icon to open an in-Shelf sub-dock could cause a persistent blank white box to appear if in-shelf sub-docks were set to open on mouse over and the sub-dock had started playing the open animation just prior to the click.
    Changing an icon for a module via drag & drop or by righ-clicking the module was not updating the icon in the Desktop version of the module.
    The Winstep Update Manager always failed to download updates with a 'file size mimatch' error on East Asian systems.
    A sub-dock opening animation would briefly flash the full glass blur region at the begining if the 'Aero Glass Blur' effect was enabled.
    The dock would keep bouncing up and down if 'Auto hide for maximized applications' was enabled and the user tried to drag a shortcut from a maximized window into the dock.
    The 'Colorize low and critical battery states' battery module setting was not 'sticking' between restarts of the application.
    The 'Aero Glass' (non-Windows 10) balloon tooltip style was blurring the tooltip window background on Windows 10 systems.
    Under certain circumstances, if a theme's original font style did not exist on the system, text width could be calculated as zero and cause visual glitches.
    Winstep applications should now display the high-resolution icon in Explorer on high-DPI/large icon systems.
    Docks should now be a bit less 'jittery' when inserting items into them via drag & drop.
    A Shelf attached to the top screen edge with the tabs set to appear at the top of the Shelf, was not hiding the tabs properly when collapsed if the 'Hide tabs' setting was enabled.
    The 'Auto Hide at Startup' option could sometimes fail to hide the dock, leaving it visible and in an unresponsive state until you activated it.
    It was very easy (and very annoying!) to accidentally activate a dock at the bottom of the screen via an edge bump when going for the last option in a context menu. This could make the dock cover the menu(s). Edge bumps are now ignored if the mouse pointer is over a menu.
    Getting the current wallpaper to use as the background in certain dialogs with result previews could sometimes fail under Windows 8.x and 10. This could cause changes in previews to overwrite instead of replacing each other (Dock Icon Spacing and Dock Transparency dialogs, for instance).
    The 'Colorize with dominant color of desktop background' feature could stop working properly after going to the Themes tab in Preferences.
    Shelf tab overlay bitmaps (used in the DarkTech theme, for instance) were not obeying the user specified transparency settings.
    The Themes tab in Preferences, unlike the Themes tab in a dock Properties dialog, was unable to display RK Launcher Nexus themes.
    Fixed slow memory leak in the Shelf that occured whenever an icon in the Global icon cache was changed or a Shelf tab was deleted.
    'Colorize with the dominant color of the desktop background' now works properly with the Windows 7 wallpaper slideshow.
    Fixed a couple of visual glitches with the DarkTech, Evolve and Windows 7 Xtreme default themes on systems running with high-DPI settings.
    Fixed another memory leak that occured when switching tabs in the Shelf if one of the tabs contained Winstep modules.
    The Battery Monitor Event Actions dialog would not properly display the background image if the Low Battery alarm was set to 'Do Nothing' and the Critical Battery alarm was set to something other than 'Do Nothing'.
    Fixed some issues displaying and correctly applying RK Launcher dock backgrounds in the Themes tab of Preferences.
    Closing Preferences could interfere with the Windows wallpaper slideshow feature if Windows changed the wallpaper while the Preferences window was still open.
    Fixed a few issues with Theme Integration between NextSTART and WorkShelf.
    The application crashed if a context menu got repainted while a thumbnail preview of a document in the menu was being shown.
