I'm going to talk about creating a Dragon Naturally Speaking Custom Command. You can
do this to make it work with any application, you have on your computer, and any operation
within any other application so it's quiete a handy tool. So let's get started! We start
with Dragon Naturally Speaking open, click on tools, and then, add new command. Your
new dialogue box pops up. Call that Command Open Edraw Mind Map! This is a general used
apllication. We will make a application specific. See if it's on our quick list? It's not; so
we will browse where it's actually located and there program files. Find the excuitable,
edraw and now we use this drop-down to assigned it to my group, my personal group makes it
easier. And this drop-down for command type: we use Macro-Recorder. Once we clicked on
recorder, it starts everything we do and we double-click Edraw Mind Map, get that going
and starts up, that's pretty much it. We want to stop the macro, so it usually ends up in
the lower left-hand corner of your screen. We click on stop and we close the Recorder
Window. Knowtest the Dialogue Box pops back in for my Commands Editor. Now we actually
need to train Dragon Naturally Speaking in what the command is going to sound like. Open
Edraw Mind Map and click on done, and it seems to accepted that, we save it. Let's close
out Mind Maps so we actually can test out this thing. Let's turn on the microphone,
not if you will need Dragon Pad or something like that open for to accept the commands.
Open Edraw Mind Map and there you have it. This is Rich Baker, University of Southern
