In VR I use no keys until
I come to a correction. I use my mouse and set over say the page, paragraph and read along. If a correction is needed, I place my mouse over that and either delete, put another word in. I do not scan with the mouse word by word. My eyes are editing, the mouse is just there. I do not use the combination keys like VRer does, just never wanted to learn, figured just would slow me down.
On VR have never used the keys
only the mouse and can keep up with the audio as fast as it goes. No idea about with the keys, just did not want to do.
Bayscribe hot keys
Double click the Productivity Tools Word Expander Icon on your desktop. Click the tab for Local Configuration and you can set hot keys for features to what you want.
Use shortcut keys
I forgot to say you should use all of the shortcut keys.

Alt K will take you to the red block and Alt . (period) will put a period at the end of the sentence as well as capitalize the next sentence.

Try practicing these.
I had heard had to use hot keys
in order to do more but been doing the same ole thing for so long do not use those. What are you averaging per hour, per day and compare that with what you were doing straight.
I believe you can reprogram the keys
I think you can re-program those command keys to suit your needs. Contact the Emdat help desk about it. I know I did reprogram a couple of mine.
Of course I use the shortcut keys, but
what do the shortcut keys have to do with the quality of the work that ISR spews out? The whole idea is that we shouldn't have to do much editing!! That is the whole premise behind ISR. But my experience has been one of very tedious time consuming editing that never gets any better. Often times even seems to be getting worse. I'm just giving my experience.
Word function keys
Yes, this does happen. There is a little program that goes into your computer when they load Transnet, which disables the function keys of Word. Ctrl S in Word is Save, Ctrl S in Transnet is to search prior jobs, etc. Ctrl N in Word brings up a new document. Ctrl N in Transnet ends and spell checks the job. THis should go away when you UNINSTALL Transnet the proper way.
Oh how could I forget those friggin' "F" keys?!

I actually got pretty adept at manipulating those commands, but what a total pain.  My wrists really took a beating during that stint too because of reaching for those stupid F keys.  Blech blech blech! 


  


 


 


If you are using Express Scribe, you can use your function keys and...
the instructions are in the Help section or maybe it is in Setup.  Good luck on the test!
You use the Ctrl + keys to access everything in the program. Very
s
the company sets the keys - ask your job. It is not the phone.
I have worked on several accounts via C-phone and each acocunt had it set their own way - similar - but not exact. Companies can calibrate each gal differently as well such as not being able to skip jobs, among other things.

ask you supervisor.
Does Axolotl use hot keys or a foot pedal? sm

If they use hot keys, are they hard to learn if you've only ever used a foot pedal before?


Thanks for the info!


I use keyboard only....move along with the voice with my arrow keys, then...
my mouse is right where the voice is when I have to make a correction. Couldn't do it any other way.
