Dragon NaturallySpeaking Option Numbers

Hello Everyone,

When I'm running accessibility training courses for web developers I often
demonstrate different assistive technologies to the attendees. One of the
tools I demo is Dragon NaturallySpeaking.

As some of you will know, when you issue a command to Dragon like "Click
link" where there are multiple links in view, Dragon shows small numbered
'blobs' next to each link to allow the user to clarify which one they want
to interact with. In my version of Dragon, the numbers are yellow on a
green background.

In a large room, or with a dodgy projector it's sometimes hard for the
attendees to see these numbers clearly, so I'd like to find a way to change
the size and/or colour combinations so they are easier to read.

Does anyone know how I can influence this? I've tried to track down the
settings but have drawn a blank so far.

Thanks
Graham Armfield
