The input area has two different Graffiti 2 screens that you can access from the
status bar.
The two Graffiti 2 screens have designated areas that recognize certain characters.
If those characters are written in the wrong area, they are not recognized correctly
and an incorrect character is written. For a list of characters and the designated
Graffiti 2 area where they can be written, see “Graffiti 2 character set” later in this
chapter.
Using Full-screen Writing
When Full-screen Writing is turned on and is active, you can write outside the
Graffiti 2 input area. When Full-screen Writing is turned off or is inactive, you must
write character strokes in the Graffiti 2 input area for your handheld to recognize
them.
You can write letters or characters in the following areas:
Left side of the screen: letters or characters that are assigned to the abc or ABC
input areas
Right side of the screen: numbers or characters that are assigned to the 123 input
area
Middle of the screen straddling the imaginary dividing line between the left and
right sides:
capital or uppercase letters
NOTE
For a brief period of time after writing a character, a quick tap on the screen is
interpreted as a period character. This makes is easier to tap buttons and place the
cursor without having the action interpreted as a period character.
Tap and hold.
Then select Graffiti 2
input area icon from
