Startup/Shutdown options
Startup options
Selecting “Microphone on (asleep) at startup” makes Dragon
NaturallySpeaking
®
start up with the microphone on, but sleeping. This
is useful if you have physical limitations that prevent you from using the
keyboard or mouse to turn on the microphone.
“Launch DragonPad at startup” opens the DragonPad each time Dragon
NaturallySpeaking
®
is opened. If you use the DragonPad often, you will
probably want to select this box.
Leave the next three boxes selected to make Dragon
NaturallySpeaking
®
recognize the widest variety of commands. Try
clearing one or more of these boxes if you want to conserve memory.
The “Enable mouse motion commands” option lets you move the
mouse by voice. The mouse motion commands are especially useful if
you have physical problems that prevent you from using the mouse by
hand. With this option selected, you can click the Speed button to
change the speed of mouse movement when moving the mouse by
voice. For more information on mouse motion commands, see “Moving
the pointer with the mouse motion commands” on page 119.
