Use menus and menu commands
Menus on your handheld computer are easy to use, and work the same way in all applications. Menu bars
and manual commands differ based on the application and the area of the application in which you’re
working. For example, memo list screen and the memo screen display different menus.
Most menu commands have an equivalent Graffiti 2 command stroke, which is similar to keyboard
shortcuts used to execute commands on computers. To use Graffiti 2 menu commands, menus must be
closed.
To display a menu bar and choose a command, do one of the following:
•
Open an
application
(such as the date book); then tap the
menu icon
. Select the
desired
command
from the menu.
•
Tap the
inverted tab
at the top of any application’s screen (the calculator does not have an inverted
tab); then tap the
desired command
.
•
In the text input area of your device’s screen,
drag a diagonal line
from the lower left to upper right
to display the command toolbar. The command bar is displayed for approximately four seconds.
Tap an
icon
that represents the command you want, or enter the
shortcut
for the command in the text
input area below the command toolbar. For example, to choose select all in the edit menu, draw the
Graffiti 2 command stroke in the text area to display the command toolbar; then draw the letter S. Note
that if you wait more than three seconds to draw the shortcut letter, you’ll have to redraw the Graffiti 2
command stroke to redisplay the command toolbar.
Display tips
Many of the dialogs that appear on your handheld computer contain a
tips icon in the upper right corner. Tips anticipate questions you may
have and provide shortcuts for using the dialog or other useful
information.
