LineEraser ®
Using the LineEraser feature, you can easily remove an entire line of text
located in correction memory.
1. Position the print hammer on any character in the line.
2. Press Code + LineEraser (WordEraser). No beep is heard. Correction
begins immediately from the last character typed on the line up to
the first character typed on the line.
NOTE:
You can press Code + Stop (S) to stop LineEraser.
Erasing will stop immediately. The print hammer remains
on the last character corrected.
3. Type in the correction. Be sure to activate Bold or Underscore if you
want to replace enhanced text.
4. Press Code + Reloc (Return) to return to your previous typing
position, if necessary.
NOTE: If Code + LineEraser is pressed while off-line or when
there is no text in the correction buffer, you will receive
an ERROR message.
Character Swap ®
Character Swap allows you to reverse the order of adjacent characters on
a line within the correction memory buffer. For example, if you typed
“
Teh
,” you could reverse the “
h
” and the “
e
,” to produce “
The
.”
Character Swap will transpose lower-case and upper-case letters without
changing the case. Also, Character Swap will swap bold and underlined
characters, retaining the enhancement of the character.
Characters must be in the correction memory buffer; that is, they must be
in one of the last three lines of typed text. This feature is inactive when
typing text in a special field (e.g., Auto Center) or when you are using
List and AutoSpell.
1. Position the print hammer on the second of the two characters to be
swapped. (The print hammer must be on the character, not the space
following the character.) For example, to swap “
eh
” as in the
example above, position the cursor on “
h
.”
2. Press Code + (W). The character currently selected will be
swapped with the preceding one. In the example above, “
eh
” would
become “
he
.” The print hammer relocates after the right most
corrected character.
