Hello,
Can anyone tell me if yWriter supports Cortana voice recognition?  I have RA and would need to use Cortana as opposed to keying in words.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

It uses the same text control as Wordpad, and fully supports the built-in Windows speech recognition and also Dragon Naturally Speaking.

Not sure about Cortana, unless that's the same as the inbuilt windows speech.

I used Dragon Nuance today and can confirm yWriter supports it. You can select text in the scene editor, no dictation box needed! Thanks so much for including that, Simon!
