Character input
■ Gesture input pro
You can input characters with the same input method as
gesture input.
• Because touching and holding the
screen until the gesture guide is
displayed takes a little time, it is
easier to input text with the same
operation as numeric keypad input.
• You can input characters with the
same input method even without the
gesture guide display.
• You can increase the time until the
gesture guide is displayed and do not
display it.
■ Flick input
Touch and hold the key assigned to the character you want
to input to display a flick guide.
Without lifting your finger from the
display, flick your finger in the direction
indicated by the flick guide to input
that character.
