Page 27 Entering Data in Your Handheld
Most characters require only a single stroke. When you lift the
stylus from the Graffiti writing area, your handheld recognizes
and displays the text character immediately. To accomplish
single strokes, some Graffiti strokes are portions of the regular
alphabet equivalents.
The Graffiti writing area is divided into two parts: one for
writing the letters of the alphabet and one for writing numbers.
The small marks at the top and bottom of the Graffiti writing
area indicate the two areas.
To write Graffiti letters:
1. Tap the screen where you want your text to go.
Note:
You need to tap above the Graffiti writing area, and
must see a blinking cursor before you write the text.
2. Use the tables on the following pages to find the stroke shape for
the letter you want to create. For example, the stroke shown
below creates the letter “n.”
Note:
There are two different stroke shapes available for
some letters. For these letters, choose the one that’s
easiest for you.
As you’ll see later, you use the same shape to create both the
uppercase and lowercase version of a letter.
3. Position the stylus in the left-hand side of the Graffiti writing
area.
