C H A P T E R 5 Editing and Revising Text
Dragon NaturallySpeaking User’s Guide 101
You can say “Scratch That” (but not “Delete That”) up to ten times to
delete the last few things you said. If you repeat the command, you must
pause before saying it again. You can also say, for example, “Scratch That 5
Times.”
Backing up as you dictate
When you’re dictating, sometimes you may hesitate or think of a better
way to say something right after you’ve said it. When this happens, you
can use the “Resume With” command to back up to where you were
before the mistake.
Just say “Resume With” immediately followed by the word or words you
want to back up to. Then, continue dictating. Any text after the new
insertion point will be replaced with your new dictation.
When using the “Resume With” command, remember not to pause in the
middle. Say “Resume With” and then immediately say the words you want to back up to.
These words must be in the last three or four sentences (100 characters) you said; you
can’t use “Resume With” to back up to an earlier part of your document.
To back up as you dictate:
1 Suppose you dictate this sentence: “I have a deadline this week, but we could
meet for lunch… um… er… next Wednesday.”
2 To correct the sentence, back up to the last correct words you remember
dictating. For example, say “Resume With meet for lunch.” (Remember not
to pause in the middle.)
3 Then, dictate the rest of the sentence. For example, say “next Wednesday
at noon.”
Deleting specific words
You can delete text by selecting it and saying “Delete That.”
To delete text:
1 Select the text you want to delete.
2 Say “Delete That.”
You can also say “Scratch That” to do the same thing.
