Text area

listens-textarea@listenssoft/speechui-angular

Multi-line dictation with no value filter — say the command and keep talking.

The text area is the text field pattern without a type filter: free text, streamed into the value while you speak, flushed to onMatch once when listening stops. Everything about matching, claims, and the contains fallback is identical.

Dictating multi-line text

Updates as you tick props

import { Component } from "@angular/core";import { FormsModule } from "@angular/forms";import { ListensTextAreaComponent } from "@listenssoft/speechui-angular";
@Component({  selector: "demo-text-area",  imports: [ListensTextAreaComponent, FormsModule],  template: `    <listens-textarea      label="Notes"      command="notes"      [rows]="4"      placeholder="Dictate mission notes…"      [(ngModel)]="notes"    />  `,})export class DemoTextArea {  notes = "";}

What you can say

Say	Effect
“notes all systems nominal”	Starts-with match: streams “all systems nominal” into the value as you speak.
“the notes say all clear”	Contains fallback: sets the value to the words after the command (“say all clear”) if nothing else claimed the phrase.

onMatch fires once, when listening stops, with the final accumulated value.
