Starting new lines and paragraph
While you are dictating, you can use the following commands to
duplicate the action of pressing the Enter key once (to add a new line)
or twice (to add a new paragraph).
Saying "New Paragraph" presses the Enter key twice and capitalizes the next
word you dictate.
Tips for dictating text
■ To erase the last thing you said, say "Scratch That."
■ You can repeat "Scratch That" to undo a sequence of phrases.
■ To undo the effects of a command, say "Undo That." If “Undo
That” fails to undo an action, try repeating the command until you
completely undo the operation.
■ To stop a recognition in progress (and turn the microphone off),
click the small red button inside the Results box.
■ You can change the very last phrase you spoke by saying "Bold
That," "Cap That," "Correct That," and so on; you do not have to
select the text first.
■ To remove a trailing space after a word, you can say "Delete
Previous Character."
■ You can create a spoken form for words you prefer not to say aloud.
For example, you can create a command that types "Snookums"
whenever you say "Mary's nickname."
■ To clear (deselect) your last selection, say "Unselect That."
