Using Your Zodiac Handheld 31
General Guidelines for Graffiti 2 Writing
Follow these guidelines to learn and use Graffiti 2 writing strokes successfully:
•
To achieve 100% accuracy, practice drawing characters exactly as they
appear in the tables later in this chapter.
•
The heavy dot on each shape indicates where to start the stroke. Some
characters have similar shapes, but different starting and ending
points. Always start the stroke at the heavy dot, but do not draw the
heavy dot; (it is there only as a guideline).
•
The Graffiti 2 writing strokes for letters closely resemble letters of the
standard English alphabet, both uppercase and lowercase. Graffiti 2
includes symbols made with a single stroke and symbols made with
multiple strokes.
For multi-stroke characters, a temporary character appears after the
first stroke, to show that the stroke was recognized. For example, after
the first vertical stroke of “t”, a temporary “l” is shown. There is a limited
time window, during which you must draw the second stroke.
Otherwise the temporary stroke is recorded.
•
The Input Area is divided into three parts, one for writing uppercase
letters, one for writing lowercase letters, and one for writing numbers.
The small marks at the top and bottom of the Input Area define the
division lines. To have your handheld recognize uppercase letters,
lowercase letters, and numbers, you must begin the strokes in the
corresponding portion of the Input Area.
