Tapping and writing problems
Problem Solution
When I tap the
buttons or screen
icons, it activates the
wrong feature.
Calibrate the screen. See “Digitizer
preferences” in Chapter 9.
When I tap the Menu
icon , nothing
happens.
Not all applications or screens have menus.
Try changing to a different application.
I can’t get my
handheld to
recognize my
handwriting.
For your handheld to recognize hand-
writing input with the stylus, you need
to use Graffiti
®
writing. See “Using
Graffiti writing to enter data” in
Chapter 2.
Make the Graffiti character strokes in
the Graffiti writing area, not on the
display part of the screen.
Write Graffiti strokes for letters in the
left-hand side, and the strokes for
numbers in the right-hand side of the
Graffiti writing area.
Make sure that Graffiti is not shifted
into extended or punctuation modes.
See “Using Graffiti writing to enter
data” in Chapter 2.
See “Graffiti tips” in Chapter 2 for tips
on increasing your accuracy when you
write Graffiti characters.
