Choosing a menu
The menus and menu commands that are available depend on the application that
is currently open. Also, the menus and menu commands vary depending on
which
part of the application you’re currently using. For example, in Memo Pad, the
menus are different for the Memo list screen and the Memo record screen.
To select a menu command with the stylus:
1.
Open the menu bar for an application.
2.
Tap the menu that contains the command you want to use.
3.
Tap the command you want to use.
Graffiti 2 menu commands
Most menu commands have an equivalent Graffiti 2 Command stroke, which is
similar to the keyboard shortcuts used to execute commands on computers. The
command letters appear to the right of the command names.
When you draw the Command stroke anywhere in the input area, the Command
toolbar appears just above the input area to indicate that you are in Command
mode.
The Command toolbar displays context-sensitive menu commands for the active
screen. For example, if text is selected, the menu icons displayed may be Undo,
Cut, Copy, and Paste. Tap an icon to select the command, or immediately write
the corresponding command letter for an appropriate command in the input area.
For example, to select Paste from the Edit menu, draw the Command stroke,
followed by the letter
p .
Command mode is active only for a short time, so you must tap an icon or write
the command letter immediately to select the menu command.
