 # revealjs.ids (development version)
 
+- New transcript view, toggled with `r`: a single scrollable page containing every slide's content and speaker notes. Text-to-speech ("read aloud") browser extensions cannot walk a reveal.js deck (hidden slides are not part of the visible page text), but they can read the transcript from start to finish -- e.g. to have the whole talk including notes read aloud while practicing.
+
 - Slides titled "Overview" or "Überblick" are now automatically turned into a table of contents (ported from the old Google Docs slide workflow): their body content is replaced at presentation time with a clickable list of all `#` chapter headings. Adding `{data-overview-subheadings=true}` to the heading also includes the `##` sub-headings, laid out in two columns. References and appendix chapters (References/Literatur/Literaturverzeichnis/Appendix/Anhang) are excluded, together with their sub-slides.
 
 - Speaker notes (`::: notes`) and timing comments placed before the first heading are now attached to the title slide instead of ending up on a separate empty phantom slide after it, so the title itself can have a time budget and a welcome note (shown in the speaker view and the mobile notes overlay, and included in `slide_timing()` and the pacing timer).

 On mobile browsers (touch devices), a speech-bubble button next to the fullscreen button overlays the current slide with its speaker notes -- useful for practicing a talk on a phone or tablet, where the separate speaker view window of the `'s'` shortcut is awkward. The overlay shows the slide title, its planned time (if annotated with a timing comment), and the notes, and follows along as you change slides. It appears only if the deck contains notes at all.
