Adding Speech to custom UIMenuController

Question

I created a custom UIMenuController in a UIWebView but it seems to get rid of the \"Speak Selection\" option in the UIMenuController after

Answer 1

I've found some interesting things with this bug. Basically, when speak selection is enabled, after you make the first selection the UIMenuController is emptied of menuItems. The solution, though hacky, is simple.

- (BOOL)canPerformAction:(SEL)action withSender:(id)sender {
NSString *selectorString = NSStringFromSelector(action);
BOOL isAccessibilitySelector = [selectorString isEqualToString:@"_accessibilitySpeak:"] || [selectorString isEqualToString:@"_accessibilityPauseSpeaking:"];
if (isAccessibilitySelector && [super canPerformAction:action withSender:sender]) {
    //(re)add menuItems to UIMenuController
    return YES;
}
return NO;

}

I should note that you must re-add the menuItems after their canPerformAction...() has been called.
