Navigate fields in any order

In a new email, commands enable you to navigate the fields in any order (as opposed to tabbing from one field to

the next).

TIP: Regardless of this feature and Dragon, it’s prudent to leave the To field blank until you’re ready to send!

(Also prudent is setting up some other protection, such as an automatic delay before the program actually sends.)

Note: In addition to keyboard shortcuts of the Web browser itself, you may wish to take advantage of keyboard

shortcuts your particular Web-based email provides (as in “press control enter” for sending a message in Gmail

or Outlook.com). Lists are available on the Web, including on the websites of Google and Microsoft.

Key points about Dragon and e-mail

 In supported e-mail programs, the higher editions of Dragon provide many voice commands to perform

tasks related to creating and managing e-mails, such as open message, delete memo, go to Subject…

 In e-mail commands, you can use the words message, e-mail, memo, or mail interchangeably.

 For Outlook, higher editions of Dragon let you use shortcut commands like book meeting with

<contact(s)>, create message to <contact(s)>, create email about <subject>, and create task about

<subject>, at any time, no matter what application has the focus (there is no need to first switch to

Outlook). These shortcut command help you quickly act on thoughts, with minimal interruption to your

overall flow of activity.

 You can see more e-mail commands in the Command Browser and the Learning Center; in addition, the

Help contains many details about using Dragon with e-mail. Remember that Dragon contains a command

that lets you name keywords to search for in the Help: for instance, you could say “search help for

Outlook calendar.”

 Thanks to its add-on for Internet Explorer (version 9 10 and 11, 32-bit and 64-bit), Firefox, and Chrome,

Dragon 13 has added functionality in addition to Dragon’s existing capabilities for the particular browser.

 For this feature to be active, you’ll need to close and re-open your browser after installing Dragon 13.

(Note: If you install Internet Explorer after Dragon 13, you may need to re-launch Dragon’s installation.)
