Once you have installed the Dragon web extension in your browser (Microsoft Edge, Chrome or Mozilla), You should be able to dictate in text fields and a range of commands will be available. For a list of commands, say "Give me Help" > Use the web. Although there is no specific list of commands available for Edge, Edge users can refer to the list of commands for Internet Explorer.
Note that Dragon's functionality will vary from one website to another, depending on the degree to which the website complies with W3C accessibility guidelines.

If using Dragon in Microsoft Edge, it is important to load the Dragon Web Extension. Note that the web extension for Edge is only supported by the latest version of Dragon Group, which is V15.7.1.
If you don't have the latest version of Dragon Group, or you have Dragon Professional Individual*, load the Dragon web extension for Chrome (it can be loaded in Edge).
To check which extensions are loaded in Edge :
  1. Click the three dots in the top-right hand corner
  2. Click Extensions > Manage extensions
* To check which edition and version of Dragon you have, click on the Help menu (in Dragon Group click on the ? to the right of the Dragon Bar) > about Dragon
​​
To load the Dragon web extension for Chrome in Edge (for those with Dragon Professional Individual or versions of Dragon Group earlier than V15.7.1):
  1. Click the three dots in the top-right hand corner of Edge
  2. Click Extensions > Manage extensions
  3. In the bottom left-hand corner, turn on the switch that says, Allow extensions from other stores
  4. Click Allow to confirm
  5. Click Chrome Web Store and search for the Dragon web extension for Chrome
  6. Follow the prompts from here to install the Dragon web extension for Chrome in Edge
Those working in large organisations might need to request their IT Helpdesk to load the extension if admin access is required.

Dictation Box

4/10/2022

If you are not able to dictate in a text field, say "Show dictation box". Dictate your text in the box, then say "Transfer". The text will be pasted to wherever the cursor was when you opened the box.
​
The dictation box can also be useful in text fields where you are able to dictate, but perhaps you don't have full functionality. For example you might not be able to format or correct text. You will be able to do these functions by voice in the dictation box.
