Make sure to select text before typing over an error and do not use the
Backspace key.
To begin, click the Extras button on the DragonBar to show the
Extras toolbar and move to the beginning of your dictation. You can
permanently display the Extras toolbar by selecting Show Extras in the
Options dialog box. See “View options” on page 211 for more
information.
Click the Start Playback button . Dragon NaturallySpeaking
®
will
begin playing back your recorded voice. Listen to and proofread your
text until you find a recognition error.
When you find a misrecognition, press the Correction hot key to display
the Correction menu. The Correction hot key is the (-) key on the
numeric keypad, unless you’ve changed it to another key using the
Options settings. The Correction menu will appear.
If one of the choices on the Correction menu matches what you said:
1 Press the down arrow key to move to the correct choice.
2 Press the Enter key to accept that choice and move on. Click the Start
Playback button to restart the audio playback and continue your
corrections.
In DragonPad, Audio playback will restart automatically after you press the
Enter key.
If what you said is not listed on the Correction menu:
1 Type the correct text.
2 Click the Start Playback button to restart the audio playback and
continue proofreading.
When typing the correct text, sometimes you’ll want to change just a
word or two of what is highlighted and you won’t want to retype the
whole phrase. You can use the mouse to select the words that you want
to correct and then press the Correction hot key. Or, you can use the
mouse to move to the words you want to correct (or press the
ESC key
and then the arrow keys to do this by keyboard), enter the correct words,
