Lift the stylus from the screen at the end of the
stroke shape.
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.
Note
You must begin the character strokes in the Graffiti writing area. If
you do not make Graffiti strokes in the Graffiti writing area, your
CLIÉ handheld does not recognize them as text characters.
Notes on writing Graffiti characters
• Recognition accuracy improves when you write large
characters. You should draw strokes that nearly fill the Graffiti
writing area.
• Write at natural speed. Writing too slowly can generate
recognition errors.
• Do not write on a slant. Vertical strokes should be parallel to
the sides of the Graffiti writing area.
