Customizing Dragon NaturallySpeaking
Dragon NaturallySpeaking User’s Guide

DragonBar options
The control for the DragonBar mode lets you place the DragonBar at the
top or bottom of the screen, make it a floating window you can position
freely, make it “cling” to the top of whatever program you’re dictating to,
or hide it altogether, leaving only an icon in the Windows
®
tray at the
bottom of the screen.
The “Show messages” and “Show extras” check boxes control whether
information and status messages appear in the DragonBar. For example,
when you open your user files and perform other tasks, messages
confirming these actions will apear in the DragonBar.
Results Box options
If the “Beep after recognition” check box is selected, Dragon
NaturallySpeaking
®
will beep each time it recognizes a word or phrase.
If the “Anchor” check box is selected, the Results box will stay in the
same place on the screen instead of moving as you speak. Some people
find that this makes it easy to glance at while dictating.
The “Auto-hide delay” control affects how long the Results box stays on
the screen after you finish speaking. The default setting, “Never hide,”
keeps the Results box on the screen so you can view it easily.
Clicking the button “Restore defaults” restores the original installation
settings.
