CHAPTER 5 Editing and Revising Text To Select-and-Say: 1 Dictate the sentence below: US/Canada: Let's meet for lunch on Tuesday [period] Other Dialects: Let's meet for lunch on Tuesday [full stop] 2 Say "Select lunch on Tuesday." The words "lunch on Tuesday" should be highlighted on the screen. 3 Say "dinner on Wednesday." These words should replace "lunch on Tuesday." You can also select punctuation marks. 4 Say: "Select period" (US/Canada) or "Select full stop" (Other Dialects). If there's more than one period or full stop, you can say "Select Again" to select a different one. 5 To replace the period or full stop with an exclamation mark, say "exclamation mark." TIP It is often easier for Dragon NaturallySpeaking to find the matching text if you select a short phrase rather than selecting individual words. If you select some words that are already correct, just say them again along with the ones you want to change. Selecting the same text again If the words you're trying to select appear more than once on the screen, and Dragon NaturallySpeaking selects the wrong ones, just say "Select Again." The program then looks for another instance of the same word or words. It always searches backward from where you are. If the program reaches the top of the document while searching backward, it will wrap to the bottom of the document and continue searching backward for the next instance of the text. TIP If you want the program to always search forward, you can change this setting. On the NaturallySpeaking menu, point to Advanced, click Options, and then click the Correction tab. Clear the "Select searches backwards" check box. Dragon NaturallySpeaking User's Guide 91
