Graffiti® writing

Your CLIÉ handheld includes Graffiti® writing software as the primary system for entering text and numbers. With Graffiti® writing, you write simple strokes with the stylus and they are instantly recognized as letters or numbers.

Most people find they can enter text quickly and accurately with only a few minutes of practice. Graffiti writing includes any character you can type on a standard keyboard. The Graffiti® strokes closely resemble the upper case letters of the regular alphabet, which makes Graffiti® writing easy to learn.

This section explains the procedures for creating letters, numbers, punctuation, and symbols, as well as teaching you some Graffiti® tips and tricks.

Writing Graffiti® letters

The Graffiti® writing area is divided into two parts: one for writing the letters of the alphabet (1) and one for writing numbers (2). The line (3) at the top and bottom of the Graffiti® writing area indicates the two areas.

1. Write letter s here

2. Write numbers here

3. Division li ne

Entering data

CLIE Operating Instructions

There are five basic concepts for success with Graffiti® writing:

❑ If you draw the character shape exactly as shown below, you can achieve 100% accuracy.

❑ The heavy dot on each shape shows where to begin the stroke. Certain characters have similar shapes,

but different beginning and end points.

❑ Always begin the stroke at the heavy dot (you should not create the heavy dot; it is only there to show

you where to begin the stroke).

❑ Most characters require only a single stroke. When you lift the stylus from the Graffiti

writing area, your

CLIÉ handheld recognizes and displays the text character immediately.

❑ To allow you to write an entire character with a single stroke, some Graffiti

strokes are portions of the

regular alphabet equivalents.

✍ Note that the stroke is displayed while you are drawing it.

Make sure you select the Graffiti writing before beginning to write anything.

How to write Graffiti® letters?

To write Graffiti® letters, proceed as follows:

1 Tap where you want your text to go.

You need to tap above the Graffiti® writing area, and you must see a flashing 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". There are two different stroke shapes available for some letters. For these letters, choose the one that is

CLIE Operating Instructions

the easiest for you. As you will see later, you use the same shape to create both the upper case and lower case version of a letter.

3 Position the stylus in the left-hand side of the Graffiti® writing area. 4 Start your stroke at the heavy dot (1) and draw the stroke shape as it appears in the tables. 5 Lift the stylus from the screen at the end of the stroke shape (2).

That is all there is to it. When you lift the stylus from the screen, your CLIÉ handheld recognizes your stroke immediately and prints the letter at the insertion point on the screen. As soon as you lift the stylus from the screen, you can begin the stroke for the next character you want to write.

To display the Graffiti® onscreen help, proceed as follows:

Drag the stylus from the bottom of the writing area to the top of the screen. Graffiti® Help opens a series of screens that show the complete Graffiti® character set.

Shift to caps and then you can make capital letters with the same stroke shapes as the basic alphabet characters.

❑ To draw the first letter of a word as a capital letter, use the Caps Shift stroke .

To return to the lower case, use the Backspace stroke .

❑ To enter only capital letters (Caps Lock), use the Caps Shift stroke twice .

To return to the lower case, use the Caps Shift stroke .

✍ When you create a new sentence or a new record (by tapping New or a blank line), the first letter is automatically capitalized in most applications.
