Hot key options
The microphone hot key lets you turn the microphone on and off. You
can change it and six other hot keys on the tab Hot keys of the Options
dialog box. To change a hot key, click on the button with the hot key’s
name. A dialog box will appear titled “Set Hot Key.” Press the new key
and click OK.
For the Microphone on/off key, the default (automatically installed)
choice of (+) on the numeric keypad is a good one for most people. That
key is large and easy to find. The Correction key, which opens the
Correction menu, has the default setting of (-) on the numeric keypad.
