Results Box
■ Beep after recognition: Dragon NaturallySpeaking beep each time it recognizes
a word or phrase.
■ Anchor: Locks the Results box in its current location until you drag it to a new
location. Clear this check box to allow the Results box to float around the
window as you dictate.
■ Auto-hide delay: Adjusts the length of time before the Results box disappears
after a recognition. From a list, you can choose to never hide it or never show it,
or you can set a delay after which it automatically hides itself. The default
setting is Never Hide.
