In the ELPAC Audio module in TOMS that is used for the Initial ELPAC paper-pencil test, resizing the window causes the screen’s text to be partially hidden. The horizontal scroll bar does not appear to display what is on the right side of the screen, and the text does not wrap.

Temporary Solution: At this time, please avoid resizing the Audio module window when doing so prevents text from displaying fully on the screen.

ChromeOS 119 is missing the Spanish voice pack.

Resolved

Resolution: This has been resolved with ChromeOS 121 Stable release. If you are unable to update to this version, use the following workaround.

Workaround

Workaround (for ChromeOS 119 and 120):

  1. Refer to the Supported Operating Systems and Devices web page for a list of currently supported systems. The Google information is in the first row of the table.
  2. Install the Spanish voice pack manually on devices that are using ChromeOS 119 and will be used for testing where the text-to-speech resource will be needed by taking the following steps:
    1. Enable the option for the "floating accessibility toolbar" in the ChromeOS Admin console. This must be done by the system administrator.
    2. Open the secure browser on the device(s) that need a Spanish voice pack.
    3. Select the new floating toolbar in the right corner of the screen and then select Settings.
    4. Install the Spanish voice pack.
    5. Disable the option for the floating accessibility menu in the ChromeOS Admin console again. This step is required.
  3. Assign a small number of devices that require the Spanish voice pack to ChromeOS 114 LTS using the Google Admin console's rollback function. Note that a device will be wiped of all local data during this process. This version of ChromeOS was released on December 8, 2023, and so will continue to receive security updates for six months. Refer to the Google Long-term Support (LTS) on ChromeOS web page for more information.
