<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am planning to develop some simple courses to support new users of Dragon naturally speaking speech recognition software. The problem is that the Voice commands "Press Tab" , "Press Shift Tab","Press Enter", "Press Space Bar" fire the
key board keys and allow you to navigate Xerte, but it is very painful to get to where you want to go if you simply want to advance a slide or bring up the table of contents. "Press Tab","Press Tab","Press Tab","Press Tab" etc<br>
<br>
If you have the high end professional version of dragon you can say "Press Tab 6" or you can program mouse position commands, assuming you load xerte into the same window size every time, and say "Next Slide" which will locate the mouse and click it. However
the target audience for the courses are novice dragon users with a typical low end version of Dragon so this is not really an option. You can also use "Mouse Grid 5,2,3 Mouse click" to position the mouse and click it, but again you have to be an experienced
user to be able to do this.<br>
<br>
A few XOT inbuilt shot cut keys say "Press Control T" etc that advance the slide no matter where you are would help novice user with XOT. Others eg: go to first Tab Item on the slide would also make a big difference.<br>
<br>
Understand that there may be possible conflicts with windows mac etc pre defined short cut keys but the question is can this and should this be done easily in XOT to assist disability users who use speech recognition.( including built in Win7 speech recognition)
