Gestures enable you to use editing commands. To use gestures, draw the following
strokes on the left (letter) side of the Graffiti 2 writing area:
Graffiti 2 ShortCuts
Graffiti 2 ShortCuts make entering commonly used words or phrases quick and
easy. ShortCuts are similar to the Glossary or Autotext features of some word
processors.
Graffiti 2 writing comes with several predefined ShortCuts, and you can also
create your own. Each ShortCut can represent up to 45 characters. For example,
you might create a ShortCut for your name or for the header of a memo.
See
“ShortCuts Preferences” in Chapter 16 to learn about creating ShortCuts.
To use a ShortCut, draw the ShortCut stroke followed by the ShortCut characters.
The ShortCut symbol appears at the insertion point to show that you are in
ShortCut mode.
Your handheld includes the predefined Graffiti 2 ShortCuts shown in the
following table.
