Other Keys
Other keys can be called by their name with or without “press”.
Examples: Enter, Press Enter, Page Up, Press Page Up.

Buttons
Names of buttons can be called with WSR.
Examples: Bold, Italic, Underline.

The button has to be displayed on the screen in order to call it. If it is a tab that is not in the foreground, the button cannot be called by WSR. To fix this situation place buttons that are frequently used in the Quick Access Toolbar.
This will ensure that the button can be used at all times.
