| The new keyboard commands in Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 3.0 make it possible to run your application completely hands-free. For example, if Dragon NaturallySpeaking does not understand how to run a menu by voice (like in a Microsoft Office application), you can use the MouseGrid (see How Can You Control the Mouse by Voice?) or navigate by saying "Press alt f as in foxtrot" for example. |
